Issue
1. Tradition and modernization are incompatible. One must choose between
them.
2. Public figures such as actors, politicians, and athletes should expect
people to be interested in their private lives. When they seek a public
role, they should expect that they will lose at least some of their
privacy.
Argument
The following is a memorandum from the director of personnel to the
president of Get-Away Airlines.
"Since our mechanics are responsible for inspecting and maintaining our
aircraft, Get-Away Airlines should pay to send them to the Quality-Care
Seminar, a two-week seminar on proper maintenance procedures. I recommend
this seminar because it is likely to be a wise investment, given that the
automobile racing industry recently reported that the performance of its
maintenance crews improved markedly after their crews had attended the
seminar. These maintenance crews perform many of the same functions as do our
mechanics, including refueling and repairing engines. The money we spend on
sending our staff to the seminar will inevitably lead to improved maintenance
and thus to greater customer satisfaction along with greater profits for our
airline."
