Argument Essay 9:The following was written by a group of developers in the city of Monroe.

The following was written by a group of developers in the city of Monroe.

"A jazz music club in Monroe would be a tremendously profitable enterprise. At present, the nearest jazz club is over 60 miles away from Monroe; thus, our proposed club, the C Note, would have the local market all to itself. In addition, there is ample evidence of the popularity of jazz in Monroe: over 100,000 people attended Monroe's jazz festival last summer, several well-known jazz musicians live in Monroe, and the highest-rated radio program in Monroe is 'Jazz nightly.' Finally, a nationwide study indicates that the typical jazz fan spends close to $1,000 per year on jazz entertainment. We therefore predict that the C Note cannot help but make money."

Write a response in which you discuss what questions would need to be answered in order to decide whether the prediction and the argument on which it is based are reasonable. Be sure to explain how the answers to these questions would help to evaluate the prediction.

The statement written by a group of developers in the city of Monroe states that a jazz music club would be more profitable enterprise, the author draws evidence from the last year participation of the umpteen numbers of people. Additionally he supports his argument highest radio rated program. Although the claim seems convincing at first, however close scrutiny reveals that there are several flaws in the argument, and it fails to provide logical reasoning to believe whether it would be profitable to set up a jazz music club.

The first claim by the author states that a jazz music club would be more profitable enterprise. The author concludes it on the basis of very trifling reason. First of all he has not mentioned whether people of the area are financially strong enough to bear the cost of the Jazz club. They may be interested in Jazz however they can use DVDs or any other storage material as a substitute.

Secondly, the author has not mentioned if any other club was being set earlier or not. We do not find any evidence of why there has not been any club before. There are various options may be there was a club which failed to operate or there has not been ever a single club. There could be many reasoning for the absence of a jazz club for last many years which the author has not given a heed to depict.

The C type which they suggest to be build is not going to have market. Albeit the author wants to convince us on the basis of the point that since there were so many participant in the last summer festival of Jazz therefore it would also increase audience. We do not know exactly whether the audience was all locals of the same area or visitors. If they were visitors we cannot claim that we can have same rush in the club.

The statistics shown that on an average the amount spent is $ 1000. Spending this much amount on Jazz entertainment does not mean they are going to spend enough on club. May be they spend this much amount Jazz CDs or DVD.

To sum up with, the author has not clearly developed a logical reasoning in support of setting up a Jazz Club in Monroe. More scholarship is required claim whether setting a Jazz Morose will create local market or not.
