After reading "A Modest Proposal" and analyzing the benefits mentioned, we can say the ones that would result from the proposal are:

C. Finer culinary experiences for the wealthy.

E. Opportunities for the poor to compensate their landlords​.

<h3>What is the proposal about?</h3>

In the satirical essay "A Modest Proposal," Jonathan Swift comes up with a solution for the increasing poverty in Ireland. He says the babies of the poor should be sold and cooked as food for the rich. That way, two benefits would be obtained:

  • The wealthy would have a fine culinary experience.
  • The poor would be compensating their landlords.

Of course the proposal is sarcastic, and its real purpose is to criticize the way the wealthy mistreat the poor. Back when it was first published, it caused shock and surprise, for readers thought they would read a serious proposal.

Answer:

<u>This crazy world</u>

I love watching stars

But yet it gets crowded with scars

If you could see

What I could be

Would you love me

Or would you agree

That you despise

This rise

Of social media

They might leave ya

Behind

So why is it on the rise

To cut

Get stuck in a rut

To kill

With all your will

Would you go

When the world gets slow

Or would you stay

To fade away

Explanation:

I love poetry thanks for this opportunity!
