Essay On Blue City Education

In the prompt it stated that in the region of Trillura the city-run public schools are funded by taxes collected by each city government and these funds are allocated in accordance with the budgetary priorities that each city gives to education. Since the Parson City spends almost twice as much as Blue City spens in a year for its public schools, the prompt provides the assumption that Parson City residents are more keen on education than Blue City resident's are. Even though this assumption could be true, the prompt does not provide evidence to support the argument that Blue City people are less preoccupied with education than Parson City's residents. Therefore, in order to support this conclusion the argument should be reassessed in order to evaluate its presupposition that Parson city value more education than Blue City's.

Firstly, while it is assumed that a lower fraction of the city budget in Blue City is devoted to education, it might not be sufficient to assume that the city residents give less importance to education than Parson City. Since it is not provided any information regarding the demographic composition of this both cities it could be that they have different amount of residents in age to go to school. Therefore, since the fraction of the student population could be different
within this two cities it could be plausible that it is not because the Parson citizens value more education, but simply because they have a different number of individuals in a student age that would demand greater educational investments than the other city;

Secondly, it is not provided if the Blue city has private schools instead of public one.
Since it would be normal that residents in Blue city prefer to pay for a private school instead of allocating their budgetary funds in a public school system. Therefore, since it is not explained the structure of the demand for educational services in both cities it could be that one city has more private schools than the other, so it would be mistaken to assume that individuals in Blue City do not appreciate well enough the educational expenditures with the public resources. Therefore, the assumption that people in Blue City tend to give less importance to education cannot be
warranted.

Lastly, although it could be possible that Parson City have relatively invested more in education, it is also possible that Blue City has other budgetary priorities other than educational investment. Even if this was true, it could be possible that Blue City residents send their students to study in nearby cities due to the fact that the city does not invest enough in education. Therefore, it is not because that the city of Blue City devote less resources to educational that its residents give less appreciation for education than other city's residents within region Trillura.

In conclusion, the prompt provides the assumption that city residents in Blue City are less prone to support educational investment than other city's residents within region of Trillura. However, it is not explained if the this city has a lower number of residents than Parson City or other cities within the Trillura region. It is also needed further clarification if the Blue City has private schools what could explain the fact that less resources are alloted for public education. Finally, it shold be explained if the Blue City residents individuals go to neighboring cities to get education. Since it is possible that Blue City residents go to Parson City to get education, the assumption that the Blue City residents are less prone to invest in education might not be granted.
