-Smoking Ban:
Banning smoking in public places is a hot topic with many people who strongly oppose or support it. It may be good for public health, but it also takes away from people’s freedom. It will likely be a hot topic for awhile whether they fully ban it or not.
-Stem Cell Research:
Like smoking bans, stem cell research has a lot of people the passionately oppose or support it. The people that support it argue that the research could potentially bring a lot of breakthroughs that couldnt come about any other way. However, the people that oppose it feel that it is wrong because those cells are people. This is hot topic where a compromise is not very likely to happen, and no matter what the outcome, a lot of people will be upset.
