Not so long ago, high education was unsual. Nowadays, however, it is comparatively easy to aquire a certificate, PH.D., or anything in between. Some people think that this increased access to education is devaluing degrees. In this essay, i will look at some of the arguments for and against the increased emphasis on degrees in our society.
People have several arguments against the need for degrees. they say that having so many graduates devalues a degree. People lose respect for the degree holder. It is also claimed that education has become a rat race. Graduates have to compete for jobs even after years of studying. A last point is that studying for such a long time leads to learners becoming inflexible. they know a lot about one narrow subject, but are unable to apply their skills.
However, i feel strongly that this move towards having more qualifications is a positive developments. Accessibility is one major point. In the past education was only for the rich and powerful, but now it is available to everyone, and this will have many advantages for the country and the individual. Second of all, people with degrees have amny more opportunities. They can take a wider variety of jobs and do what they enjoy doing instead of being forced to take a job they dislike. Finally, a highly quilfied workforce is good for the economy of the country. It attracts foreign investment.
In conclusion, although there are undoubtedly some problems with increased levels of education, I would asser that the country can only progress if all its people are well educated.

Argument Essay
have you ever considered the fact that every year millions of animals undergo painful death as a result of scientific research while most people think animal testing is necessary, others are upset by what they see as needless suffering. This essay outlines some of the arguments for and against animal testing.
First, let's look at the arguments. One very positive point is that many medical treatments and procedures have been developed from such experiments. Since animals share many features with humans, scientist use animals to test safety and effectiveness of newly developed drugs. Moreover, there is a large supply of animals. Some, such as mice and rats have many babies, and there is no danger of extinction for these species. Finally, some advocates think that animals are less valuable than people. If there is a mistake, it will not cost a human life.
However, there are also a number of arguments against animal testing. Perhaps the most important point is that animals maybe suffering unnecessarily. Critics do not believe that every new drug needs to be tested on animals. Furthermore, some feel animal testing is ineffective; theypoint out that many drugs still have to be withdrawn from the market despite extensive testing. Last, some compaigners would like to see alternatives used. they feel more humane testing is possible and, too, that we could rely more on organ donors.
To conclude, we need to ensure that animals used for experimental purposes do not suffer much painn. Althought some animal testing maybe unavoidable at present, treating our fellow creatures mercifully will demonstrate our humanity.
