Mark: I deserve a raise!

Boss: Why do you deserve a raise?

Mark: Both Rachel and Soledad make three dollars more an hour than I do, so I should make the same as they do.

Boss: Both Rachel and Soledad have worked here longer than you and always receive top evaluations.

Mark: Well, then I deserve a raise because I have a wife and two children at home, one of whom has a very expensive medical condition.

Boss: No.

Even though his boss refused to give him a raise, Mark's argument is a solid example of a logical and well-supported argument.

That is a true statement but some evidence should be added to Marks argument
