The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a local newspaper: “Our city council’s neglect of the impoverished Railroad Flats neighborhood has left businesses with little incentive to locate there. Building a new professional football stadium in the neighborhood would solve this problem. Thousands of football fans would travel to the area to see games, and they would buy from local merchants, encouraging new businesses to open. So our city council should move quickly to fund the construction of a professional football stadium in Railroad Flats in order to help the neighborhood develop a thriving economy.” Discuss how well reasoned . . .etc.
can we say that because the plan do nothing useful to our city, there is no need for our city council to fund the construction? |
