authors note for op-ed

This is my first draft of the op-ed portion of unit 3. It is still unfinished, no conclusion yet. It is also a bit short but hopefully with the addition of a conclusion and a few tweaks it will meet the requirements. I am unsure if what I have written falls into how a op-ed should be written. I would like some guidance on where my paper needs improvement, mechanically as well as substantively.
