A Modest Proposal

How does the following quote develop the narrator’s point of view?:

“I desire those politicians who dislike my overture... that they will first ask the parents of these mortals, whether they would not at this day think it a great happiness to have been sold for food, at a year old in the manner I prescribe, and thereby have avoided such a perpetual scene of misfortunes as they have since gone through by the oppression of landlords, the impossibility of paying rent without money or trade, the want of common sustenance, with neither house nor clothes to cover them from the inclemencies of the weather, and the most inevitable prospect of entailing the like or greater miseries upon their breed for ever.”

In this passage, Swift is making the point that maybe adults in poverty right now would have preferred to have been sold off for food at one year old rather than be living the life that they are. He points out the difficulties they are facing because of their landlords and the upper class, and proposes that they might have been better off if they had been eaten as babies.

This reinforces Swift's point because it uses satire to point out something very, very wrong in their society that is a result of the class inequality. 

The concern statement or the passage , the landlord was from upper class due to which Swift making lots of problems.

The swift have to sold her food to live a normal life and have to face the pressure of landlord as they were not able to pay rent and also not have proper clothes to cover his body , due to which smith`s family have to face lots of trouble and problem and disrespect from the upper cast society .

The upper caste offered they if they can eaten as a babies then they will be treated will in the society .some thing very bad in society that they have to face inequality .
