I need some help with a paper I am writing for a college course.  The paper is
on political correctness and its effects on people on the jobs.  I will argue
that muticulturalism, and politically correctness training has its place;
however, enforced political correctness in the workplace has the same effect as
McCarthyism.
 
I will be posting this survey in non-political areas to get the widest cross
section of responses so please feel free to answer me in private e-mail. 
Please answer each question "yes" or "no."  Please feel free to include your
comments both fore and against "political correctness," though, only those
comments that accompany a completed survey will be considered for quotation in
my paper.  Thank you for your help in advance.
