Others say it would be too expensive and would reduce the quality of care. Examine editorials from both sides of the argument. Then write a paragraph in which you compare and contrast each argument in terms of objectivity and the types of evidence presented. Evaluate and explain how the sources use effective evidence to support their claims.
