In your opinion, what is the most important economical issue facing the United States right now?
There are numerous issues that are causing economical crisis like education, taxes, mortgages, insurance, bad credit, gas prices, unemployment, and the list could go on and on, but in my opinion on what is the most economical issue facing the United States right now is the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. I think this is the most economical issue right now because of all the money we put in it, how many people we deploy there, and the waste in time that we put in it. If we were to stop the wars in the Middle East then we would save a whole lot of money and help us get out of the recession. The war in the Middle East is costing us approximately 6 billion dollars a month so if you multiply that for 12 months, then again for 9 years then it would turn out to be 648 billion dollars we would be saving and that would be going to the debt we have. If we have that happen and find employment for all those who are unemployed, it would help our economy and all of the world’s economy.
Another way how getting out of the war would help our economical issue is by having the soldiers come back home and have them start working. By having them work instead of fighting the war, our unemployment rate would lower and there would be more people working and making money which would help stable out our debt. Also by having them home, not as many people would be arguing about whether or not we should still have them in the Middle East. With Congress now not worried about the war budget, they could focus on how they can stable out the economy. Also by having them focusing on ways to help the economy they can solve other issues that can also contribute to helping the economy. Basically, the most important economical issue that we are facing, in my opinion, is the war in the Middle East, and by ending the war it could help stable out our debt and help the world get back on its feet.

Jeremy – How much money exactly would we be saving if we got out of Iraq and Afghanistan? In my opinion, a “whole lot” of money could be a thousand dollars. I would just omit that sentence. Your argument would be stronger. Why would this money reduce unemployment? Explain. I would think just the opposite of your second argument. When you can’t find work in the type of economy we are experiencing, how will tens of thousands of troops coming home be able to find work? What government agencies will protect our troops when they come home? Your organization needs some work. Be sure to use simple yet specific language to make and defend your arguments. Also, be sure to proofread your work. This has potential, but make sure you spend the time to produce quality work. Content 5; Organization 4; Total 27/36.
