Beaudoin’s blog post “Keep Taxes Low By Getting Texas High” makes great points on why Texas should legalize the commercial sale of marijuana. The author does a good job staying on topic and uses good statistics to display the benefits of using marijuana as a good way to receive tax revenue. The legalization isn’t a new topic and has been implemented in other parts of the US, and Beaudoin does a great job of using that information to support the argument.
However, I did dislike the extreme hypothetical example used to support the argument that marijuana should be legalized. The use of this very far out example makes me step back as a reader after being successfully convinced to agree with the argument. If the author just used a basic example of having that on their record and being held back, that would be a sufficient enough.
Overall, this blog post was effective despite a minor hiccup.
