(The following is an essay crafted for Dr. Pedro Pietropaoli’s course, Catholicism in America. If you plagiarize this piece, I, Author, will cut you…and take you to the honor and conduct board. REAL DOOM. Read on for some enlightenment. I’m happy with this essay. Should I be a philosopher? Eh, maybe if I had an [...]

Do you think you have true freedom? The New York Times released its annual report on corporate executive earnings.
