Speaker 1 Summary

Jorge’s conclusion is express through his rhetorical question - we should proceed with the necessary changes all at once to our economic policy all at once. He supports this conclusion by an analogy to jumping over a chasm, which is something we would do all in one leap.

Speaker 2 Summary

Christina’s conclusion is that we shouldn’t change economic policy all at once. We should proceed with smaller changes over time. This is supported by an analogy to teaching a horse to jump fences. We would train a horse to jump lower heights first and build up to greater heights.

Objective

We’re looking for a point of disagreement. The speakers disagree about the pace at which we should change economic policy. Jorge thinks we should do it all at once. Christina thinks we should do it more slowly.
