Consider one of the following current social issues or one of your choice:

    Opioid crisis
    Legalization of recreational or medical marijuana
    Vaping
    Immigration
    Elimination of the electoral college
    Gun control
    For the initial post, address the following:

    State your position on one of these issues are you for, against, or neutral? Explain why. Avoid vagueness or ambiguity in your response. Make your position very clear.
    Examine how you have formed that opinion.
    How well do you think you know the facts?
    Do you know and understand statistical information that applies to the issue?
    Do you think you have formed your opinion using only System-1 thinking, or have you applied System-2?
    What part have heuristics, cognitive bias, and dominance structuring played in how you have formed your opinions?
    The initial post is not about how “correct” your position is; it is about how you arrived at your position on the issue. This discussion requires application of metacognition thinking about how you think.
