The Government should strictly regulate internet oligopolies to reduce the abuses of market power that cause inefficient and unfair market outcomes. Task: Make one substantive but succinct post (250-500 words) to the Activity 11: Economic Arguments. Argue either for or against the statement above. Make an argument with at least two points or elements in favor and one rebuttal of an opposing point. One of those can be a social justice or fairness point as in my example below. Criteria: In your own words (no quotes, no online resources), make a convincing economic argument consisting of five short, separate paragraphs (ii, iii., and iv. can be in any order): i. A 2-4 sentence opening paragraph that states your position (normative statement) and at least two main elements or points of your argument. ii. A 3-5 sentence paragraph developing one or more related points. iii. A 3-5 sentence paragraph developing a second point (or set of points). iv. A 3-5 sentence rebuttal to what you think is a key point of the opposing argument. v. A 2−4 sentence concluding paragraph that sums up your position, including at least one normative sentence. Your post should be clear (readable) and free of distracting grammatical errors and misspellings. Do not use 'I believe' or similar phrases. Do not make your post too long.
