When faced in a situation between two people, topics, sides or anything, all people tend to pick a certain side. In the case of the ebola epidemic i have to agree with John D Sutter from Monday Matters 9 who says ebola is a major problem, James Barty from Monday Matters 10 who says western aid is needed to prevent another ebola epidemic, and the political cartoon from Monday Matters 11 which displays how the Center for Disease Control lies to us, the people. I agree with John because ebola is a vast problem. It is not in the United states however it's still a very sizable problem facing third world countries. I agree with James because if we don't help when we have all the resources that can destroy ebola how are we supposed to completely eliminate it and if not that, at least calm it down and contain it. I also agree with the political cartoon because i feel as if the government actually does lie to us to keep us calm and give the impression that everything is fine and under control.
On the other hand however, the authors Declan Butler who thought opposite from John D Sutter, Shikha who opposed James Barty, and CDC which differs the political cartoon that portrayed them lying. I oppose all of these because I've noticed that all three of these sources state that we shouldn't help, ebola isn't a major problem to deal with, and also that our government is telling the truth. What these sources lack is sympathy because who would would say these suffering people don't need help and lie that everything is being solved and that the problem is small? People without a heart and who have the characteristic of being self centered say that.
