2. How does competition function in our society? To what extent is it healthy/unhealthy? Offer some real world examples taken from your life, community, culture, state, nation, or world.
Competition is rarely healthy in my viewpoint. I think its unhealthy when it comes down to playing sports. Sometimes when the players get carried away they purposely hurt members of the other team to win. There has been many cases where players have broken body parts or are even in a short coma because of competition. I also believe competition is really unhealthy when it comes to boxing. Boxers become deformed and most of the time get brain cancer. Black friday is extremely bad competition. I will never go to a store on black friday ever again. A example of healthy competition was at my mothers job; every employee had to put money into a jug for the Ronald Mcdonald House fund and the person who would donate the most money would get a day off. Most of the time there is always just one winner, but in this circumstance both parties won.
