Journal 15: Analyzing an Argument

Paul, Thornton. (2010, March 30). Poll: DWP rate increases and renewable energy. Los Angeles Times, from http://www.latimes.com

Paul(2010) takes a stand against Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa's suggestion that people, who live in Los Angeles, charge more for their electricity rates(par 1). Mayor Antonio that residents have to pay higher because of more and more use of renewable energy and high price of fossil fuel sources. They might pay much higher if they do not pay now because of makeing the atmosphere that is polluted by carbon good.(par 2) However, Paul(2010) claims that mayor's plan is ridiculous increase of charge. He puts emphasis on transparency and use other's say which strengthens his positon. Moreover, the result of poll makes it clear and show people's support. In my opinion, I'm in favor of his idea that it costs too much for charghing electricity, even though we need to invest on the progress of sources of electricity.
