Explanation:

"Without a powerful state capable of deterring crime, all citizens are vulnerable to predators; therefore, human survival is promoted by the creation of a strong state capable of severely punishing any and all individuals who threaten to harm others."

               The above statement or argument is made by Hobbes in his famous book, "The Leviathan".

Thomas Hobbes wrote his famous and most powerful book in the year 1651 named "The Matter, Forme and Power of a Common-Wealth Ecclesiasticall and Civil". This is most commonly known as 'The Leviathan'.

The main idea of his book is to share his message of an undivided and strong government which is the end of all crime and wars against humanity. He states that without a powerful state all people are will end up fighting against each other and there will hatred all around. Formation of powerful state is a solution to this brutality.

Thus the answer is Hobbes in "The Leviathan".

The lecture claims that an argument is no good unless it has a "strong and reasoned ethical base." Do you agree that ethics is a
8090 [49]

Answer with Explanation:

The evaluation of every matter requires a framework based on a useful ideas that are required for a better judgement for deriving a solution like if we want to resolve a mathematical problem, then we will use mathematical functions like +, -, *, etc so that we are able to solve the question because these are the ideas that are based on a useful ideas (Logic). Likewise when we want to assess whether the argument is good or not, we will require an ethical standard framework to evaluate the good in the argument.

So yes, I agree that ethics is an essential element of a good argument because it is the framework which decides which argument is good or not. These ethical values in a particular argument is a move from not good to good argument. Greater the ethical values in an argument the more is the argument good as per ethical principles.

Do the benefits of raising the minimum wage outweigh the drawbacks?
mina [271]
This seems to be an opinion based question, I will provide you with both a yes and no response with arguments to support it and you can choose which one best suites your beliefs:

Yes, the benefits of raising the minimum wage outweigh the drawbacks.  By raising the minimum wage you increase the quality of life for workers.  Many full time workers are unable to afford housing or groceries in this economy on the minimum wage.  At $7.25/hour and 40hrs/week is $290 before taxes.  This is not enough income to cover the basic costs of living in most places.  If people earned more money they would have more money to spend and corporations would profit from an increase in sales.  Also, workers wouldn't have to depend so much on government services such as food stamps and section 8 housing assistance because they would be able to support their families with their own income.  This would free up funds for government to provide more for the school systems, better healthcare and/or infrastructure.

No, the benefits of an increased minimum wage would not outweigh the drawbacks.  The drawbacks of a higher minimum wage are significant because they most directly effect small business owners.  The "mom and pop shop" owners depend on paying low salaries in order to keep their doors open.  If they were forced to increase their pay rates, by what many minimum wage supporters suggest: more than double, they would not be able to afford employees to keep their doors open.  Also, government agencies would be forced to pay their low-level workers as much as $15/hr which could become a tax burden on the citizens who pay for the salaries of all government employees. Raising the minimum wage would be detrimental to the economy because small companies and the government could not afford to support the salaries and benefits of their workers.
