US Military Pay

Our military men and women are extremely underpaid. Please write a position argument that explains why military personnel should be paid more.

A position argument articulates and advances an informed point of view about an issue of personal or social importance.  Use research to connect the issue to the larger conversation surrounding the topic, target a specific audience, and establish common ground with your audience. Support your claims with strong evidence and use the available means of persuasion to appeal to an audiences values and emotions.

Your role is that of an advocate, presenting a convincing argument in favor of your position to an audience that does not already agree with you. In order to accomplish this goal, you must demonstrate that you understand the reasons why people believe differently than you and practice respectful engagement with the various perspectives on your topic.
