Two Editorials Concerning the U.S. Subsidy on Electric Cars
Essay Question
For your final assignment, you will need to write an essay of at least 1250 words. In your essay, please employ the panning-for-gold approach as you consider the following two editorial opinion pieces from USA Today.
"Our view on energy: Electric car market gets useful jump-start"
"Opposing view on energy: Subsidies? Just say no"
Outline the viewpoint advanced in each editorial, and evaluate the evidence used to support it. Please critically evaluate the editorials for their logical coherence. Then explain which of the two viewpoints you think is more persuasively argued, and explain why.
Successful essays will apply concepts addressed in course readings to specific ideas from both essays. This means that you should cite specific ideas from the essays and other course readings (MLA or APA format preferred) and that your essay should have works cited or references page.
The essay should be double-spaced and submitted as a Microsoft Word file.
Note that essays that do not meet the word count requirement are generally not able to respond to the question in enough specificity or detail to be effective. As a result, essays that do not meet the word count will be failed.
Two shorter example essays are provided in response to the articles in Assignment 1.15; you may use those essays as a guide for paragraph detail and specificity.
