Introduction-

Recently inour country it has become a trend to franchise a corporation, making it availbe for a branch of the company to be purchased and personally run by the public, or by an individual alone. If nothing is done to keep large closed corporations from keeping the option of franchising and open stock corporations closed, then the public will not befit off of the business opportunity given to them. In turn this will make large corporations such as Walmart and Starbucks turn into a monopoly of sorts. Though the Big Corporations will provide jobs and service that the public can benefit from, the community will never be able to collect profit from a corporation they own a small part of.

Argument- 

      The argument i wish to state is that it is better off for the economy and for the good of the local people to have more local business.  The Argument that i wish to state is that bigger closed corporations seem to take away the business and employee options that smaller franchises and corporations offer to  local neighborhoods and community's. Not only do they provide jobs but they offer the idea of a successful business to local people to with the potential to profit from the business of their community. I will explore the profits major closed corporations benefit off of compared to the amount local business owners and franchise owners could have been getting. I will be arguing in favor of the smaller business because i believe it will benefit the smaller local community in the long run.

Thesis Statement -

Major corporations that have closed stock options are worse for the economy, neighborhoods, and the economy as a whole. If more corporations were open for franchising then it would give more people and neighborhoods a chance to experience the service of big corporations and in turn possibly bring a bigger profit to the corporation and those who choose to be a part of that corporation through franchising opportunity. Not only would this be better for the economy, but the corporations would in turn see a great deal more of business at their stores across America, and in turn more people would be able to experience and benefit off of the service and work provided in their given neighborhood.

Websites-

http://bubl.ac.uk/- so far the most useful thing i have come across, it is a directory so this means all of the sources are credible, i like this because it didn't give me a whole mess of feeds it took me straight to about 6 logical things i could use.

Next i decided to chec out dogpile.com, i must say that i felt the relevance o got from BUBL was a lot more useful to me than dogpile.

I belive that using a directory is more useful than most of the other things i tried, it gave me more relevant hits that i know are from a creditable source, this should make the remander of my resarch a bit less confusing.
