Cоnsider the fоllоwing exаmple of inductive reаsoning: In September 2019, eаch student in Mrs. Newsome's first grade class (Hank James Elementary in Woolett, Massachusetts) was given three 2 oz. scoops of ice cream: one vanilla, one chocolate, and one bubble-gum tutti frutti. 2 of the 26 students preferred chocolate, 4 preferred vanilla, and 20 preferred bubble-gum tutti frutti. Researchers concluded that, with respect to ice cream flavors, American children prefer bubble gum tutti frutti to chocolate or vanilla. Consider the following modification of the argument, and indicate if it strengthens the argument (makes it more likely that the conclusion is true), weakens the argument (makes this less likely), or has no effect. Then explain why you think this is so: The experiment was conducted in Ms. Gostrey's class as well (25 students, first grade, same school), with similar results.

How can you and your husband honestly think it makes sense to manage your household on Marxist principles? “From each according to their ability; to each according to their need.” That’s more or less the Marxist slogan, right?
