Class Links

As I have been blogging, I have also been following a few of my classmates' blogs. Here are just a few of the ones that have grabbed my attention:

To Lower or Not to Lower? (The drinking age)


It is probably obvious as to why I enjoy reading this blog. This blog is in favor of a lower drinking age just like my blog! The posts are easy to find a way to relate them back to your own personal life. This can make you think of the issue in a different context and possibly persuade you to have an opinion in favor of lowering the drinking age. This blogger knows how to present their facts in an efficient manner because the posts are short and concise.

Health Care

This blog brings up the issue of euthanasia, which is physician assisted suicide. The blogger clearly presents their opinion of being against the practice by exploring the many different aspects of the topic. The fact that the blogger uses a neutral tone helps readers to formulate their own opinion on the subject, but also makes them want to lean towards being against euthanasia. This is because the blogger gives sufficient evidence as to why the practice is wrong.

I enjoy following this blog because it presents the debate on the drinking age in a different manner than simply being for a lower drinking age or being against a lower drinking age. This blogger explores the way in which alcohol is viewed in the United States and why this is the reason the drinking age has come to be such a hot topic. The facts and evidence that this blogger looks at are presented in a clear and concise manner. Read this blog and you will begin to see why the issue of the drinking age may not just be about the actual age of 21.
