Read this excerpt from "Compulsory Voting: An Idea Whose Time Has Come": It is true that some uninformed people will cast ballots, but

themselves, now that they need to vote.
This excerpt is an example of a claim of
A. definition
B. policy

O D. value

C. cause and effect

Explanation:

The claim of cause and effect is one in which questions pertaining to what, why, how, and the effects of a certain position are evaluated and answered. These questions are answered in the excerpt above. The question about what will happen is found in the statement that uninformed people will cast ballots.

The reason (or why) this will happen is because of mandatory voting. The effect of mandatory voting is the motivation of voters who have not become involved before to educate themselves on why they should vote.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
