CONCLUSION

Following the text “Sugar beverages, to lower obesity”, it can be found a great variety of
claims and affirmations. These can give support to the whole text with additional secondary
ideas that can help in favor of the arguments. Said so, arguments presented in this text are
limited and constrained with no data, facts or numbers that can help sustain the idea. In
this kind of government initiatives, it’s important to give more weight into arguments based
on this kind of data. The solution presented makes sense if claims, affirmations, and
suppositions where all true, but giving the nature of them, affirmations should be led the
text. After all, I consider the solution interesting but with lack of statistics that can make
sense to the government responsible. I also consider the benefits are only viewed from one
only point of view and there’s a need to consider all the variables and aspects involved with
the installation of this new kind of tax.
