Weekly Response: Argumentative Research

39691Imagine you have been given the power to rule this city for one whole month. What changes would you implement to make your city a better place to live? (The changes I would implement would be to reduce homelessness). Use this scenario as a starting point for developing your argument for the persuasive blog assignment.

Consider the following questions:
1. What are the most pressing issues in your city that you would want to address?
2. What changes would you make to address these issues?
3. How would these changes benefit the people living in your city?
4. What are the potential challenges or obstacles you may face in implementing these changes?
5. How would you ensure that your changes are sustainable beyond your one-month term?

When developing your argument, keep in mind that your proposals should be both feasible and impactful. Consider the resources and infrastructure that are currently available in your city, as well as any legal or political constraints that may exist.

Remember to use evidence and examples to support your arguments, and to anticipate potential counterarguments and address them effectively. By considering what changes you would implement if you ruled your city for one month, you can develop a persuasive argument that highlights the changes you’d like to see happen in your community or the world at large.
