In the 1980s the usefulness of the FASB’s Conceptual Framework was soon questioned. Indeed, many researchers have pointed out the incompleteness, the inconsistency, the circular reasoning and non-operationality of the American Framework (Dopuch and Sundern, 1980; Solomons, 1986; Gerboth, 1987; Hines, 1989).

The article was well-organized, easy to read and quite persuasive because the reasoning was good; however, it lacked sufficient evidence in some places. The author seems a fairly open minded person and this is reflected in the article. He does not have a mind-set against changing file-sharing laws but rather proposes a debate in

Assumptions and Fallacies 1.) An assumption is something you believe to be true without having proof that it is. Making an assumption is when there is not a solid basis to determine its factuality on.
