The paper has to compare reality (what really does exist) and ideal (what should exist). Some examples are jobs, affordable car, high school curriculum, and financial aid to college students.

Write your paper about financial aid to college students.
Ideal: Every person that wants to should be able to go to college without worrying about the costs
Reality: There is not enough financial aid. The costs of college are still a major issue. A student can work two or three jobs, and still be thousands of dollars in debt when they graduate.

Great paper.........it's all open to you! I used to love compare and contrast essays because you actually get double for your money. Instead of having to blabber on about one theme....the compare and contrast factor works in your favour....so you actually need less topics to talk about. Simply put, comparing and contrasting will always add bulk to a paper.

If i were to write this paper, i'd write about reality today, the state of the world as it is and a utopia, an ideal world (more or less a heaven on earth). You could really go to town on this. For example, the western world and the east. The reality today is that Americans live in a comfortable world with microwave meals, airconditioned cars....all the luxuries and modern day conveniences. Unfortunately, the daily reality for most of the eastern world is quite the opposite. They struggle for daily survival, for many Indians, Ethiopians, etc just acquiring food, clean water and a roof over their heads is their day to day reality.

Develop this theme (or your chosen one) for a while longer giving more examples of different realities for different people in the world today. Then just let your imagination freak out and imagine/describe life in a perfect world. A world where there were no food mountains piling up and rotting while some die of malnutrition. A world where medication reached everyone who needed it and not only those who could afford it. A world in which diseases we have already found cures for simply didn't exist. A clean world in which oil tankers didn't spill their contents and destroy our marine environment. A world with eco-friendly cars and public transport services that didn't pollute the air we breathe.
A world with no war, no guns, no atomic bombs, no terrorists in which people sorted out there differences through communication rather than force. Imagine the world John Lennon wrote about....

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...


You could round it all up with a questioning conclusion developing the idea whether all this is possible........would human nature ever allow it?

You could call this paper "Brave New World" it's a quote which comes from Shakespeare's "Tempest". A guy called Aldous Huxley later wrote a dystopian novel called Brave New World.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!
