L Town Argument Essay

Decent Essays
In this argument, the arguers concludes that residents living in the Leevile town (L town) have relaxed pace of life because of their fewer sick days than Masonton city (C city), and lower rate of diagnosis of stress-related illness. At first glance, the argument appears to be convincing, however, further reflection reveals that it suffers from at least three logic flaws.
Firstly, the number of days of sick leave taken by individuals does not necessarily indicate their health status. In order to justify the argument, the arguer should provide explanations like L town’s workers will not still at work if they feel uncomfortable, or the only reason of asking for sick leave is they are indeed ill. Without ruling out these possibilities, the arguer

    For many African Americans, historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) are the foundation of higher education. They provided equal access to a high-quality education for countless African Americans. As diversity gains momentum and economic pressures continue to mount, the need for these specialized institutions is in question. Their relevance is doubted with concerns about their present purpose, costs, and vitality in modern America. Are HBCUs as relevant today as they were in the 19th and 20th centuries or have they outlived their initial purpose?…

    Proposition 55 should be passed because of the fact that the school system would receive funding from $4 billion to $9 billion. This funding will prevent cuts in school budget as well as cuts in extracurricular activities. According to “Can Gov. Jerry Brown keep the promises he made with Proposition 30?”, an article by Chris Megerian in the LA Times, “education funding could face billions of dollars in cuts, said Jennifer Wonnacott, a spokeswoman for this year’s tax campaign.” These cuts mean that the first cuts to be made will be the teachers and that will only damage the teacher shortage even more. The article, “Yes on 55 school claim misses the mark”, by Chris Nichols, an author for the online website of Politifact.com states that these cuts would…

    I don’t believe that any town should just give up and die. Smaller towns tend to have less to work with but that’s no excuse for allowing their city to fall into ruins. Community leaders and members have to realize that growth doesn’t just happen magically, it must be worked for. Community leaders have to research and find brokers and economic developers to help their town to grow and flourish. This allows those brokers and developers to grow their assets and the community to grow in ways they could of never imagined.…

    Lynas Argument Essay

    Lynas’ text argues for intentional geoengineering of the climate, which is defined as the premeditated large-scale interference in global natural systems to counter anthropogenic climate change (Oxford Geoengineering Programme, 2017). Through analysis of the text, two separate arguments can be isolated. One line of argument uses evidence of our own “unintelligent” impact on the environment as justification for intelligent geoengineering. The more specific example is his use of evidence that suggests sulphate aerosols from coal power plants reduce the impacts of climate change as a justification for placing these aerosols in the stratosphere. This analysis will argue that Lynas’ logical structure is flawed throughout, with some redeeming factors.…

    In the articles “Three Cheers for the Nanny State,” “Ban the Ban!,” and “Soda’s a Problem but…”, all three authors present their arguments with facts, opinions, and counterclaims. However, one article presents itself better than the rest. I believe that the article “Soda’s a Problem, but...” was the most convincing article. Sarah Conly- the author who wrote “Three Cheers for the Nanny State”- argues that the soda restriction is a good idea because people would be stopped from making foolish decisions that they’ll pretty definitely regret.…

    Hungry for Change Why is it that law mandates public school meals have a minimum calorie intake, but not a maximum? This owes itself to the fact that when nutrition standards were established for public schools, it was to solve the problem of undernourishment. The majority of school aged children used to walk to school, played more outside, and were more active in sports. This resulted in children burning more calories than school meals provided.…
