Sentence 6:  Some people believe that the government does not have the right to force people to be safe, and that these laws are unfair.

The counterargument in an essay is the argument that a person would make against the essay's overall claim. In this essay, the author is arguing for consistent seat belt laws across all states for both drivers and passengers. The author wants the government to get involved because seat belts save lives. The counterargument contradicts the author in that it argues that the government should not be the one deciding whether or not a person should be wearing a seat belt. Laws for seat belts are unfair as they infringe upon a person's rights.
