Pro and Con: Redo

Link: http://www.cnn.com/2010/US/09/01/deepwater.drilling.ban/

Proposition: I think it was right for the government to ban deepwater drilling. It led to an oil spill that has been going on for about 5 months and up until now the government is still trying to find a way to deal with it so it can't cause any more damage than it already has. Banning it can prevent future cases like this one.

  1. Hi Rebekah,

    This is closer to a proposition but still needs to be brought down to a single sentence. That sentence should express a "should or should not" or an "is or is not" kind of statement.
    For example, if you take out the "I think" from your first sentence, it would be a proposition without the rest of the paragraph: "The government was right to ban deep water drilling." or "The government should ban deep water drilling."

    See how that works?
