Are ‘kid cages’ protecting N.M. children, or a case of ranchers crying wolf?

This article in itself is a full argument. Here we have a few people going back and forth on 'kid cages' in a New Mexico rural area.  The main claim would be from Eva Sargent on what could be taken as a sign and a bit definitional argument about these cages are unnecessary and just represent the large anti-government sentiment.  There is legislation being considered if the Mexican grey wolf should be seen as an endangered species. The 75 that exists right now were bred and raised in captivity.  Residents of the area refute with a little fact and value. These "kid cages" have been up for 10 years with their main purpose to protect the kids waiting for the bus in the early hours of the morning from weather and other things that might be a threat.  They admit one threat does happen to be the wolves. Back to Sargent's side; continual example and fact argument of these wolves have not been documented as attacking humans.  Residents up hold the rebuttal with the knowledge of these wolves being raised in captivity and thus making them unafraid of structures and humans.

Economic Globalization brings troubles

The article I read this week in about Economic Globalization from Ifeng News. The claim in this article is economic globalization is the origin of most protests.
In the introduction part, the author lists three news related to popular protests. People in Turkey, Brazil and Egypt protested against some policies carried out by governments. Then he states that all these three events are related to the economic globalization.
To make his claim convincing, he supported from three grounds: economic globalization causes widening gap between rich and poor; it causes terrorism; it causes country secret disclosure. Then he uses backings to support his ground: some data to support the widening gap, 911 and some other terrorist activities and Snowden. But he did not write enough warrants explaining the relationships between grounds and backings. He might think the relationships are obvious enough or might think it is too hard to explain the relations clearly. I was a little confused by his supports. So I think he can explain more.

He suggests some measures to solve the disadvantages Economic Globalization bring to the world as a conclusion. And I think his conclusion is good because his suggestions make a lot of sense and make his audience really think into the Economic Globalization.
