Read this passage from a rhetorical text in a local newspaper.
(1) While out driving yesterday, I counted seven vacant storefronts in the four-block area of our town center. (2) There are additional vacancies in the smaller business district on the north end of town. (3) Not even ten years ago, we had two vibrant, bustling business districts, but now it’s as if we’re living in a ghost town. (4) Sky-high rents have contributed to the dearth of businesses in town, and it’s time the town council does something about it. (5) We should provide tax breaks for property owners who will lower their rents. (6) Some will say our budget cannot afford to fund this kind of tax relief, especially after last year’s damaging storms that required many expensive repairs to city infrastructure.

(9) In the end, funding tax relief will save us all money.
