Because as both sides of the aisle fight for the majority they create a country that is left divided and in some senses left with a feeling of hatred towards the opposite party.

Topic Proposal for Major Assignment #2

Introduction : For the second assignment we are needing to write a literature review on a specific topic/question of our choosing.
