　　issue：

　　Peoples attitudes are determined more by their immediate situation or surroundings than by society as a whole.

　　argument：

　　The following appeared in a letter to the editor of a local newspaper.

　　Commuters complain that increased rush-hour traffic on Blue Highway between the suburbs and the city center has doubled their commuting time. The favored proposal of the motorists lobby is to widen the highway, adding an additional lane of traffic. But last years addition of a lane to the nearby Green Highway was followed by a worsening of traffic jams on it. A better alternative is to add a bicycle lane to Blue Highway. Many area residents are keen bicyclists. A bicycle lane would encourage them to use bicycles to commute, and so would reduce rush-hour traffic rather than fostering an increase.
