Which are main ideas of Swift’s "A Modest Proposal"? Select 3 options. People could solve the problem of poverty in England by breeding, selling, and eating its impoverished children. The practice of eating impoverished children would benefit the poor, the wealthy, and the English economy. Those who constantly breed would have to care for their children for only one year before selling them for a profit. Men would take better care of their pregnant wives because they would not want to do anything to cause a miscarriage. Swift maintains that his solution to end poverty in England is the easiest, cheapest, and most effective proposal thus far made.

Read the excerpt from the time traveler's guide to elizabethan england.simon forman, who does attend plague sufferers, is a rare exception: this is because he has himself survived the disease and believes he cannot catch it again. however, his remedy amounts to little more than avoiding eating onions and keeping warm. he has a recipe for getting rid of the plague sores that will afflict you afterward if you survive the disease; but that is a very big "if.” it seems the best advice is provided by nicholas bownd in his book medicines for the plague: "in these dangerous times god must be our only defense.”which lines best summarize the excerpt?
