Drones Argumentative Essay

There are pros and cons for using drones, one drawback that is negative about these are they take anywhere from $2,500 - $30,000 dollars an hour to keep in the air, it's a hefty price for something so useful.

The possibilities for drones are endless. They can do almost anything that you could need from one, and with the technologies changing and becoming more advanced every day. I think that these changes might happen sooner rather than later. So if it's not superman or a bird in the sky; it's probably a
