Knowing how much you love studying social studies, your mom asks you to investigate the benefits and drawbacks of the two governments (American democracy and Chinese communism). She would like you to determine whether the family should relocate to China or remain in the United States, then write a formal paper stating your point of view supported with a counter-argument, reasoning, evidence, and citations.
