Which set of statements is most logical and well-reasoned?
Residents of Washington, DC, are U.S. citizens who are denied representation in Congress because Washington, DC, is not a state. Representation is a right of all citizens that our founding fathers fought for. So, Washington, DC, should be made a state.
Robots are capable of performing many jobs with even greater skill and accuracy than humans. People need jobs so that they can make money and be functional members of society. So, robots and artificial intelligence are bad for human society.
The U.S. Civil War was an important event in the history of the United States. All of the statues in the local public park show historical figures from different eras in U.S. history. So, the statues of Confederate soldiers should be allowed to remain in the park.
Dress codes in public places often forbid the wearing of masks and disguises that make a person’s identity unclear. People who commit crimes often wear masks to hide their identities so that they will not get caught. So, dress codes help prevent crimes.
The set of statements that is most logical and well-reasoned is: "Residents of Washington, DC, are U.S. citizens who are denied representation in Congress because Washington, DC, is not a state. Representation is a right of all citizens that our founding fathers fought for. So, Washington, DC, should be made a state."
This set of statements presents a clear logical progression: Washington, DC residents are U.S. citizens; U.S. citizens have the right to representation in Congress; the founding fathers fought for this right; therefore, Washington, DC should be made a state. The argument is supported by historical context and focuses on the specific issue of representation for Washington, DC residents.
