supports consumerism - thus supporting business - thus society

instant gratification usually cheap, easily obtainable - obtainable by the poor/less fortunate - gives them some happiness where otherwise they may not have the chance for more sophisticated long-term goods.

this assignment sucks lol - at least arguing this side anyways

provides incentive to get things done in a timely fashion.

establishes a clear connection between doing a task and the benefits of that task.

can motivate people who tend to procrastinate or be lazy.

Instant gratification can be used to achieve desired results. Think of the cash for klunkers
deal that was going on, you had to trade it in then and there and you got up to 5 grand for
a car not worth half that.

Instant gratification is great for a society, that is different from an individual.
try thinking on a larger scale vs how one person seeking instant gratification.

A society as a whole would seek innovations and be more progressive.

you do know that being this dependent on others advice may be counter-productive to your assignment?

just make sure you argue for things you are more or less convinced about yourself, the use of other people's ideas without understanding them is painful to read
