Thank you We sneak in Sorry And here's your smoke

00:08

Use your brought to you by snappy comebacks because if

00:12

you're so smart wire you in school or something comebacks

00:18

or heart All right check the following passage Pain's argument

00:24

spain Are you scales in favor Chalmers Well shmoop charlie

00:39

All right And chalmers argues that great britain cares for

00:44

its subjects and provides the best possible life for which

00:48

is the following statements Best describes the way he would

00:51

have responded to this plane Answer choices are Fighting that

00:59
