Majority

Professor Paul Brians, Introduction to Common Errors in English Usage: majority are / majority is

“Majority” is one of those words that can be either singular or plural. Common sense works pretty well in deciding which. If you mean the word to describe a collection of individuals, then the word should be treated as plural: “The majority of e-mail users are upset about the increase in spam.” If the word is used to describe a collective group, then consider it singular: “A 90% majority is opposed to scheduling the next meeting at 6:00 A.M.” If you are uncertain which you mean, then choose whatever form sounds best to you; it’s not likely to bother many people. “Majority” should be used only with countable nouns: “he ate the majority of the cookies,” but not “he ate the majority of the pie.” Instead say, “he ate most of the pie.”

Exploitive vs Exploitative - What's the difference?

Exploitive is considered to be a synonym of exploitative.
As adjectives the difference between exploitive and exploitative is that "exploitive" means "to take advantage"/ "taking advantage of someone",
while "exploitative" is in the nature of exploitation; acting to exploit someone or something.

Grammarist however takes a different approach. 

The preferred form of the adjective meaning tending to make use of selfishly or unethically is exploitative, not exploitive. This preference is shown across all main varieties of English. A few dictionaries accept exploitive as an alternative spelling of exploitative, but most correctly acknowledge that the latter is the far more common form.

In edited publications there is generally a preference for exploitative rather than exploitive. If one examines the use of "exploitive" and "exploitative" in a large number of English-language works published in the 20th century, it seems that the longer form is now preferred by a huge margin.  In current news sources, for instance, the ratio is about 20 to one.
