Does it cost more to execute someone or imprison them?

Even though many may feel it an inappropriate argument to equate a human life to the expense incurred by the taxpayer to keep that person alive, we have probably all heard someone proclaim in favor of executions that they “do not know why we should have to pay to keep a killer alive!” A compelling argument to some, a total missing of the point to others. Either way, those who rely on this argument are often surprised to find out that it actually costs more (a lot more) to execute someone than to keep them in prison for the rest of their lives. And, it is a point that may have an impact on the death penalty argument from a government point of view, as well. Much to the surprise of many who, logically, would assume that shortening someone's life should be cheaper than paying for it until natural expiration, it turns out that it is actually cheaper to imprison someone for life than to execute them. In fact, it is almost 10 times cheaper!

Ethos, Pathos, or Logos? If you decide not to come for Thanksgiving, it would break your grandmother's heart. Ethos © Pathos O L
aleksley [76]
Pathos. The reasoning being, what each word means.
Ethos is essentially the evidence of a “professional,” like things that say “9/10 dentist’s recommend!” By claiming that other people, famous people and/or professionals agree with your statement, it becomes more convincing as a result.
Logos is things such as evidence— the way I remember it is, logos and logic. Statistics are a great example but anything using logic is logos.
Finally, Pathos is emotional. Using someone’s emotions as a convincing factor. Using the commercial example from before, you know those sad puppy dog commercials? “One cent a day can help feed this poor animal.” The entire point is to play with your emotions in order to convince you to pay. That makes it pathos.

So I’m this example this is pathos. You’re trying to make someone feel bad for “breaking your grandma’s heart.” You’re not saying, “your grandma agrees that it would break her heart,” or “your mom and dad both say it would upset grandma,” which would be ethos. You’re also not saying anything logical or statistical. This leaves pathos as your answer.

Hope this helps!

Read the Poem.
Allisa [31]

Answer:

B. A ship is compared to a book.

Explanation:

Emily instigates the eager verse sweethearts through this ballad to take on verse for the delight of perusing which conveys you to removed spots envisioned by the person. It is a piece of provocation for the poem lovers who love to read.

In the poem, a book is the best and most feasible arrangement or choice to flutter or journey as opposed to a ship. It is to some degree near sleep-walking. Emily further proceeds to state that no more war-ponies are there which could divert somebody to far spots. The pages of a book are reasonable and they can convey one to far off spots with their moving content in contrast with those costly steeds. She gives a reasonable sign of her emotions towards the mistreated class. Further on she offers a chance to the poor who can undoubtedly through the lines of book cross all over without being charged a solitary penny. At last, she closes saying that the book fills in as the most affordable and reasonable chariot which conveys the human personality and soul to far off spots.
