Read this excerpt from a political candidate’s speech about college tuition.
Some people criticize my view that college education should be free for all state residents. But why do they? Our state has enough money, and if we don’t spend it on education, where will we spend it? Think about how much money is spent on state programs that don’t benefit anyone and just line the pockets of politicians and their friends.
Which logical fallacy does the author include?
