The bandwagon fallacy is  in the insistence that good cities are good because they have rail.

Explanation:

The bandwagon fallacy is where the causation of something is confused as an effect.<u> It is the argument that because all the great cities of the country have light rail, our city too should have the same light rail system to be as good as them.</u>

This argument falls apart because the rail will not curb the problems that the passage itself talks about and then willfully ignores. I<u>n fact, bringing the rail to town will actually aggravate some of the issues mentioned here</u>. Which is why the argument becomes more weak.

Being the last of a long line of speakers refers to __________ context.
I am Lyosha [343]
I am not completely sure, but I would say that being the last of a long line of speakers refers to temporal context. Since you are last, it means that a long time will pass since it is your turn.
