A good thesis statement helps guide the rest of your paper. Do you think this is true? Is it true of a poor thesis statement as well? Why?

I absolutely think that a good thesis statement guides the rest of your paper. Your thesis gives the points you want to make in your writing by summarizing the entire essay. I honestly think that a poor thesis statement will not give you a strong enough argument for your topic. A poor thesis statement can contain facts that no one can disagree with. It could also make unreasonable claims on the subject you want to write about. You want to be able to keep your readers wanting to know more and a poor thesis statement will not provide that.
