Whistleblowing:

At Three Mile Island, the site of a nuclear power plant in south Pennsylvania, there is evidence to prove that the company had rushed the cleanup of a major meltdown at a nuclear reactor, thus placing surrounding communities at risk of deadly radiation. You--yes, you--are a high-ranking employee at the company whom the Department of Justice has quietly approached for information about the cleanup. The DOJ promises you immunity from prosecution, plus 10% of whatever fines and punitive damages are awarded by the court should the company be found guilty--an amount that will likely result in millions of dollars for you. Should you blow the whistle? Submit a brief philosophical argument including a thesis statement and evidence/support for reasons given either for or against.
