Give me three reasons why Lyddie should have signed the petition and three reasons why she shouldn't.

Three reasons why Lyddie should sign the petition:
1). It's important for all the workers at the factory to show solidarity, to stick together. If pay and conditions can be improved, then Lyddie will benefit as much as anyone. It's in her own interests to sign.
2). There are no labor unions at the factory. Signing a petition is one of the only ways that the women can campaign for change. If they just hunker down and do nothing, then things will only get worse.
3). It's the right thing to do. Conditions at the factory are so bad that something has to change. The bosses need to know the strength of feeling among the workers, that they're not happy with how things are going. If they're not made aware of any grievances, then they can't do anything to address them.
Three reasons why Lyddie shouldn't sign the petition:
1). Lyddie is one of the most productive, hardworking women at the factory. If wages in general are increased, then hers might be reduced. Then she won't be able to help out her family back home.
2). Signing the petition is pointless. The bosses don't care, and they're not about to listen to the grievances of their workforce, whether it's through a petition or any other means.
3). The bosses effectively have their employees over a barrel. They know that they can always hire new workers relatively quickly and cheaply to replace the old ones. The petition is risky because it might give the bosses an excuse to lay off existing workers and hire new ones. Then where would Lyddie be?
