Persuasion Narrative of the AFL-CIO
Number of pages:
10
ABSTRACT:
A 10 page paper discussing the AFL-CIO's web pages supporting and arguing for increase in the minimum wage. The paper includes discussion of economic concepts of supply and demand and what can be expected to happen after raising minimum wage. The AFL-CIO site combines questionable numbers with statements that violate all of the laws of economics on every page. The organization does so with calmness and reserve, and overall, the effort can be quite effective with one unfamiliar of the laws of supply and demand. This appears to be the effect that the organization seeks. The site uses tools of persuasion quite well, but it is unable to escape being plain wrong and intimating the true nature of its interest in increasing minimum wage. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
