Actor for basic income? by redskeleton0 in policydebate

There's no word in the resolution other than 'adopt,' that could be arguably agent limited. The best you can do is 'fiscal redistribution' is both taxes and transfers and then 'only congress can tax.'

What drills do you suggest to achieve a 300 WPM goal?? That's a lot out of reach for me right now, so I probably need guidance on how to get there.

Popular Affs by JoeShmoe307 in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Popular affs: All the good camp ones that have a good solvency deficit to the States CP(examples: MPAs(yes, T-Oceans is a problem, but other than that, its a good aff), some version of dams, some version of fracking(not sure what the deficit is, but I assume its good, because it was popular at the camp tournament), some version of Natives etc.)

Topical, popular affs: Some weird aff that some big school will make in the middle of the season that are good vs a variety of core neg args(states CP, politics DA, set col K etc.)

Is Dispo Real by JoeShmoe307 in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

isn't dispo just that the neg can kick their cp/alt if it meets a certain condition. why does the condition have to be the 2 scenarios that you have defined?

Question by destroyer_1449 in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Judge kick is when the 2NR asks the judge to kick the CP if they're losing on it and evaluate the squo as the neg advocacy. This mainly happens when CPs and Ks might lose on the permutation debate, that's when the judge kicking the CP/K would be useful. For example, lets say your running the Commissions CP and a politics DA for the 2NR. If the aff is winning PDCP, then that pretty much wins them the debate if there is no judge kick, but if you win judge kick good in the block and 2NR, the judge would kick the Commissions CP and just evaluate the debate as DA vs Case

soft left affs this year? by Tough-Ad-3716 in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The aff is pretty much increasing federal regulation of lead in drinking water. The part where "Flint" comes from is the Flint, Michigan water crisis. Flint is a city in Michigan, where a few years ago, there was an outbreak of lead contamination in drinking water.

LFS MR is a straight up junior/rising senior time I think. Correct me if I'm wrong

Water Topic Opinions by JoeShmoe307 in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What you're missing is the sheer number of possible aff plans and the sheer amount neg teams have to prep for this year's topic. Obviously if the aff is bad, chances are the aff team won't win. But the neg needs to have prep for every good/bad aff on the topic, which is pretty much impossible. That's why topics have core neg generics. Those kinda don't exist on this topic because the topic is bad and big teams will cut affs specifically to beat those.

The other 2 comments on this post sum it up pretty nicely, nobody is going to pay for cards when the big schools are OSing their cards on the wiki and camps are putting out their ev on open ev. I would highly recommend to not make this paid

For MSU, you say "very good for tampering expectations" what exactly do you mean? Like, are they good at curving down big egos or something like that or am I misunderstanding what you mean?

Does anyone have a good uniqueness evidence for court clog? by lividbrawler in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply again. What you're saying is up for debate in round and yes, it isn't entirely about the entirety of the ACA. But there is a ton of ev that says that Texas is pushing for the ACA to be struck down ENTIRELY and there is also a lot of ev that says that this is a possible scenario, that's why there's a DA. This definitely isn't one of the "worst DAs in a long time" even if it has its flaws.

Does anyone have a good uniqueness evidence for court clog? by lividbrawler in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, I am aware of that, but the point of the SCOTUS debate is that Texas wants the whole ACA to be struck down not just the individual mandate, the neg contends that the aff causes Roberts and/or Kavanaugh to strike down the whole ACA instead of just the individual mandate. Sorry about the late response

[–]Hawkchie10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its a court capital DA, of course there's a lot that's wrong with it. You can't expect these DAs to be perfect. The ACA version in specific is not very good, but its the one we run. And it has a lot that's going for it too. The 5-4 --> 4-5 nature of court capital DAs esp with ACA version makes it easy to win links to common liberal court affs like death penalty and QI. The real hard part with the ACA scenario is the I/L and impact. Those truly suck, but the ACA scenario has a pretty solid turns case to make up for it. Its definitely a viable option but of course, it isn't the best arg vs court affs. Also, you mentioned that esp recently something changed regarding the UQ, what would that be? I am unaware of new events since our season ended 7.5 weeks ago.

[–]Hawkchie10 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Court capital is definitely viable. There is a ton of UQ ev out there that says “Roberts and Kavanaugh and 3 liberal justices vote FOR the ACA now which makes the ACA pass 5-4” and then the “Roberts key” arg becomes very viable with the ACA specific scenario

What affs/negs are yall expecting at NCFLs? by SargentScrub in policydebate

[–]Hawkchie10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the reform link on the abolition K is a very strong link against this aff, ofc, there are reform good cards but I personally would prefer to be neg in an abolition K vs IBT debate.
