Hi,guys. Thank you for reading my writing. Even though you don't feel good when you are reading, please give me some corrections. I'll appreciate it!
Task: As scientists contribute more to the development of our society than other people, science students should get more financial support from the government than other students get. Do you agree?

My writing:
In contemporary society, we are in more comfortable and convenient lives than before, which can mainly be attributed to the technological advances. So some individuals assert that students majored in science should receive more financial supports from the government than the other students. For my part, this opinion is groundless.

Admittedly, supporting science students with more money has some advantages. To begin with, science students could be encouraged to dedicate themselves to diligent studies. Money can be applied as a good motivation for students, especially for impoverished students. In Addition, more financial support enables students to do more scientific researches independently. As is known to all, scientific researches usually call for a large amount of money.

However, the drawbacks of supporting more for science students cannot be ignored. In the first place, it is unfair for other major students. Everyone is borne with different talents, and if they have remarkable achievements in their subjects, they should also be distributed to equal financial support. Due to this absurd idea, the students in other fields are bound to be striped some financial assistance. Moreover, science is only one aspect of human civilization. If the government devotes a larger share of national budget to the science students, citizens will have an impression that science is the most essential enterprise in the whole society. Obviously, it is not realistic. Science can contribute to high quality of our lives which are based on both material and mental aspects.

In conclusion, the downside of supporting more money to science student outweighs the upside of it.

@jinmin1988,

If your writing contains anything remotely political the occasional jerk will come by to be rude. Unfortunate, but that's what anonymous communication brings out in some people.

[1] I'm removing "call for" but it should be "calls for" if left in place.
[2] You can say "students in other majors" but "major students" makes "major" describe "students" so it means students who are major.
[3] Consider "given" as a replacement for "distributed".

@sullyfish6,

You, in turn, are another knee-jerk political jerk who didn't bother reading what you commented on.

It's a writing assignment for English as a second language, and if you bothered to read it you'll note that the author took a position against increased government funding.
