TOPIC: ISSUE69 - "Government should place few, if any, restrictions on scientific research and development"
WORDS: 547 TIME: 00:45:00 DATE: 2010/8/26 11:31:49
The speaker contends that it is inappropriate for the government to impose any restriction on scientific resarch. In my point of view, the scientific search ought to be left free and given more space for researchers to exerts their best. But at the application stage, the government should play an active role controling the misuse, even abuse of some advanced technologies, which could bring about the catastrophic disaster to mankind.
Scientific research and advanced technologies have been vital to the development of mankind. It is through research that human seek the truth hidden beneath the surface, ease the insatiable craving for knowledge and discover the regulation of the motion of the universe. The benefits mankind gain through conducting research are immeasurable. While the capacity of mankind has been significantly promoted, the scientific research also serves to influence the customs and values of us. One apt illustration is the forbiding of marriage between the proximity of blood, which will produce crippled children and therefore jeopardize the society as well as the individual. Thereby the benefits of research are so evident that confining it in any way will serve to impede the progress of mankind.
Another reason why research should be left free generates from the notion of reserach, which is to explore the territories that are still unknown by us human. Thereby, the results of the research might be highly unpredictable, so is how the result will explicitly contribute to the society. So it will be tough to express the boundary between what should be restricted and what should not. What is ostensibly useless, or even detrimental, to the society today might be of great use in the future. Consider what the prisident Obama has said in his open letter to his daughter (and I paraphrase), "push the boundaries" of discovery to encourage the development of new technology and inventions that improve lives and protect the environment.
However, when it comes to applying the results of researches to our lives, it is absolutely necessary that the government intervenes and prevents the abuse of these technologies. Technology is a double-edged sword. If the extensive knowledge possessed by mankind are not utilized in a proper way, the surval of mankind will be in jeopardy. Consider the research of biochemistry, which if used well could lead to gene therapy, curing desease on the DNA level, significantly facilitating the hospitals as well as the patients. If it is abused to develop biochemistry weapon or conduct experiment on living body, it will be agaist the spirit of science and the purpose of research, and might end up violating intricate morality and even the destruction of mankind. Other examples like human cloning, nuclear energy also expressly demonstrate the fatal results of abusing the results of researches and knowledge. Thus government ought to providen guildence and enforce corresponding laws to help to optimize the benefit we gain from research and prohibit the abuse of technologies
To sum up, research is the only means available for us mankind to explore the truth and seek knowledge. Due to the the unpredicability of results, indiscrimately restricting the conduct of research will merely serve to hamper the progress of development. It not the pursuit of knowledge, but the way we utilize knowledge, that the government should cast restrictions on.

TOPIC: ARGUMENT14 - The following appeared in a memo from the owner of Green Thumb Gardening Center, a small business serving a suburban town.
"There is evidence that consumers are becoming more and more interested in growing their own vegetables. A national survey conducted last month indicated that many consumers were dissatisfied with the quality of fresh vegetables available in supermarkets. And locally, the gardening magazine Great Gardens has sold out at the Village News stand three months in a row. Thus, we at Green Thumb Gardening Center can increase our profits by greatly expanding the variety of vegetable seeds we stock for gardeners this coming spring."

The author contends that in order to increase the profit at Green Thumb Gardening Center (GYGC), they should expand the variety of vegetable seeds, which the author believe will attract more customers. To substantiate this recommendation, the author cites the result of a survey conducted last month which indicates the dissatisfaction of the quality of fresh vegetables available in supermarket. The author also uses the fact that the popularity of the Great Gardens magazine as an evidence. After scrutinizing the argument, I find it serious flawed in several respects, therefore unconvincing as it stands.
In the first place, the author unreasonably assumes that the local residents' opinions about vegetables apply to that of the overall population in the country. It is entirely possible that in that specific region where GTGC is located, the residents are very content with the quality of vegetables in supermarkets. Without specific evidence specifying the degree of satisfaction about vegetales of the local residents, the credibility of the argument is open to doubt.
Secondly, granted the local residents are indeed unsatisfied with the quality of vegetables in supermakers, the author again assumes that residents intend to grow their own vegetable in their own houses, which is unwarranted. The mere dissatisfaction about vegetable lend little indication that they will grow vegetables by themselves. It is equally possible that they will just have to put up with it and eat unqualified vegetables anyway. If this is the case, the credibility of this argument will be further undermined.
In the third place, the popularity of the Great Garden magzine actually has little to do with residents growing vegetables. Jugding from the title of the magzine, it probably tells things related to gardon, which includes far more than just vegetables. Perhaps the residents want to read the magzine merely because they want to grow followers, instead of vegetables. Without concrete evidence telling the intention of local residents growing vegetables, I remain unconvinced about the recommendation broached by the author.
Finally, the author fails to prove that this trend will continue in the next year. Perhaps the quality of vegetables is bad because the climate this year is not suitable for the healthy growth of vegetables. And next year it might improve. Without evidence indicating such trend will continue, they recommendation broached by the author amounts to incomplete.
To sum up, this argument is unconvincing in various respects. To better strenghthen it, the author will need to provide more local statistics about whether the local residents are likely to grow their own vegetables. Moreover, the author also need to provide data telling the reason the vegetables are not qualified and whether they will continue to be.
