Your government has announced that it wishes to build a military base near your community. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of this new influence on your community. Do you support or oppose the military base?
What would be your reaction if the government announces that they wish to build a military base near your community? Will you support or oppose the military base? In my opinion, I would oppose the military base decision even though there are both advantages and disadvantages to this new influence in my community. Even if the government decides to edict this case, I would still not abdicate and change my decision.
One of the disadvantages of having a military base near your community is the standards of the place you live tend to drop. Just imagine what if you house is in the middle of the city surrounded by department stores and a military base is built, your house area will turn into a village! However, an advantage to this is that foreign visitors and tourist would come and visit the military base which can be considered good especially if you have a business there. For instance, if you have a shop somewhere near that area, tourist may walk around and go into your shop.
Another disadvantage of having a military base near your house is that you will have to tolerate the cacophonous sound every day. It might affect your sleep and your privacy since the noise will be around your house ever single hour of the day. Nevertheless, the advantage is that your house area will be safer; there won’t be an act of larceny or thief near your house which allows you to be immuned from these kinds of worries.
The last advantage to this problem is that by having a military base near your community makes you stressful. Imagine having a group of army walking in front of your house every day. That’s indeed a scary thing. What if a guess come to visit you? They might run away seeing the army in front of your house. However, an advantage to this is that the military base might develop new roads or facilities near your house. For instance, they might conduct a train station there which can help you transport easier to work etc.
In conclusion, I disagree about having a military base near my house even though there are both advantages and disadvantages to it. Advantages might involve having a safer surrounding, attracting tourist, and improve your surroundings while disadvantages of having a military base near your community involves irritating noise, it lowers the standards of the area you live, and it makes you stressful.
