3. Clarify Reread lines 222-229. Why does Swift feel that his proposal is

superior to others that have been put forward?

It will cost nothing, and the Irish can do it themselves.

Explanation:

In "A Modest Proposal," Jonathan Swift makes ironically suggests that one year-old babies should be sold and eaten up as food. In that respect, he mentions that such a business could be easily performed at home, so poor Irish people could make a profit out of a homegrown product. As a result of that, the Irish would have more food available, and there would be fewer poor people living in hardship and oppression.
