A student has asked for some sample Thesis statements to
understand if he is on the right track or not as he continues to work on his
essay this week.
Below are some modified sample thesis statements of ideas
your peers have submitted to me. Please
remember that you are PROPOSING SOLUTIONS to alleviate the opioid crisis (which
means opioid deaths). You want to make
sure that you are asserting a CHANGE, and when you can, you want to assert HOW
this change will take place or be financed.
The second and fourth sample theses below indicate that drug companies
that make opioids should be taxed so that there are programs for those who
later become addicted to their drugs.
However, keep in mind that not all opioid abusers are overdosing on prescription
drugs. Some deaths in this opioid crisis
come from illegal opioid use. Nonetheless, taxing the drug companies would be a
good place to start to finance these changes.

Sample thesis statements:
1. America could experience a decrease in the
amount of people who die through opioid abuse if doctors prescribed
alternative methods, instead of opioids, to curb pain, if free rehabilitation centers
existed for lower-income Americans, and if the church educated its
members on how to minister to those suffering from addiction.
2. An effective way to fight the opioid crisis
is to require opioid-producing drug companies to sponsor drug education for
youth, rehabilitation facilities in local hospitals, and community outreach
programs to help those struggling with the addition at any stage.
3. With an ever-growing opioid crisis in the
United States, Christians are in a great position to help by showing God’s love through
community outreach to drug users, volunteering to work on drug education in
the schools and through PSAs, as well as provide more drug
support groups within church facilities.
4. In order to combat the opioid crisis in the
United States, drug companies who manufacture prescription opioid substances
must provide funding so that greater emphasis will be placed on community
support, dependence prevention, and addiction treatment.

Hopefully, the information from the online Proposal
Argument packet will let you know if the Thesis YOU are working on is
viable or not.
