Not so long ago, the Seoul mayor put up a
campaign pledge about free school meal for every elementary and middle school
students, but personally I do not think such assistance is needed. Students who
can afford to buy their own meal should do so. Still, I can understand why
people want it.
Sponsoring for school meal through taxes of
the public allows equality for all of the students. Before, the free meal was
only given to students who have minimum standard of living. The standard for
dividing students needing meal aid and those who do not can be very subjective.
Instead of selectively supporting students, it is fairer for every student to
be able to enjoy their meal when it is gratis.
Former students who were
supported can also feel ease at receiving their free meal. Many students had
been feeling shame about their circumstances of the inability to pay their meal
bill. Such students feel psychologically hurt, which can be prevented by free
meal policy which gives equal treatment to all.
Nice job. You are one of a few to follow the example I laid out in class. You establish your true opinion well, and rebut it effectively. Nice mini-essay that feels complete. Some grammar stuff that could be improved, but very minor. I know you will be more meticulous when you actually have to write these for college. Right?:)
