Since I missed class the day the rhetorical assemblage
assignment was discussed, I did not get the chance to hear types of examples of
what texts we can use for the rhetorical assemblage. However, from reading the
assignment sheet I saw the argument of marijuana legalization. While I know
this was already a given example and not exactly original, I do feel like this
is a topic I would most definitely be interested in researching and writing
about. It is an argument that I support myself, so I feel as though I could not
only do exceptionally well on the assemblage, but also something I could learn
a lot from.
I’m not one hundred percent sure if this next idea is relevant
to the focus of this assignment, but another idea that came to mind was the
money and distribution of money collected from tolls. This is something that
sparked my attention a few years ago, but I never researched much into it. While
I understand that toll dollars are spent to build our roads, my argument is
that time and time again I have seen roads being rebuilt and redone, for no
reason. What I mean is, just because a road is old, if there are not any
excessive potholes, missing paint, or need for reconstruction, why is our money
constantly being spent on “improving” these roads that were perfectly fine to
begin with? My audience for this topic
would be local governments, or those specifically in charge of the regulation
of toll roads and collections.
