Rhet 233 Research Paper- Sprawl Study

This is my Rhet 233 research paper. The thesis is complicated because it makes three claims.

-sprawl is a problem
-sprawl can be solved
-sprawl has inherent difficulties

I though I did a pretty good job on the paper, but some of the paragraphs are pretty short and some of the topics are viewed in a very optimistic light. For example, there is too much emphasis placed on community preservation as a way to economic restoration. The fact is, specialty shops and downtown districts aren't going to solve a communities economic troubles, though maybe slow them. There isn't enough global economic research in here. Still I think its a pretty informative paper, and might be interesting to a bored individual.
