Human history is riddled with stories of competitions where there are a clear winner or winners. I believe competition is necessary because it gives people motivation to continue to get better at school, work, or sports. It is beneficial because, without competition, people would see no point in getting better or trying to succeed.

Eliminating competition would be bad for society. The majority of humans tend to ...

In the short story “The Lottery”, written by Shirley Jackson in 1948, the author showcases a dystopian future in which tradition and a sense of community is placed above the individual.
