Document Summary
Due october 03, 2018: exercise 3. 3 questions: 2, 10, 13, 22. For each of the following arguments, indicate whether it is valid or invalid, strong or weak: welfare is by definition a handout to people who have not worked for it. But giving people money they have not earned through labour is not helping anyone. It follows then that social welfare does not help anyone. Valid: a recent gallup poll says that 69 percent of canadians believe in the existence of heaven, but only. 43 per cent say they believe in hell. People are just too willing to engage in wishful thinking. Weak: you failed your driver"s test twice. You"ve had three traffic tickets in the last two years. And your own brother won"t let you drive him to hockey practice. It"s pretty clear you"re not a very good driver. Strong: if you"re a woman, then you understand sexism.
