Lower Columbia College Topics 2013

Round 1 ACA/Obama Care The United States should repair Obama Care. Affordable Care is not particularly affordable. Health care ought to be a fundamental human right. The United States Federal Government should implement a single payer health care system. Lying about the price of Affordable Care Act outweighs not having it at all.

Round 2 Higher Education States should contribute significantly more to the cost of higher education. A community/technical college education is more valuable than a university degree. The United States is no longer a leader in higher education. Specialized degrees ought be valued above a traditional liberal arts education. The United States Department of Education should increase the financial aid credit hour limit.

Round 3 Egypt Mohammed Morsi is guilty. The Muslim Brotherhood is better for Egypt than Hosni Mubarak was. The Egyptian elections should be accelerated. U.S. Aid should be restored to Egypt. Egyptian democracy is a failed experiment.

Round 4 Iraq The United States should offer Iraq substantially more U. S. Aid. The United States has a responsibility to help reconstruct Iraq. The United Nations should assist Iraq to stop the violence. A resurgent at Qaeda necessitates U.S. presence in Iraq. The Iraqi government should take steps to bridge the gap between Shia and Sunni.

Round 5 Food Stamps/Hunger The United States Federal Government should significantly increase funding for the food stamp program. The access to nutritional food ought be a fundamental human right. When in conflict social spending is more important than military aid. The United States should significantly decrease the production of wheat, soy and corn. Local charity is a more efficient solution to hunger than government aid. Quarters – Gender Equality The United States Federal government should require equal funding for Men’s and Women’s sports. Nongendered bathrooms are preferable. Real images are preferable to profit. The United States Federal military should equalize Physical Testing testing standards. Congress, like Dr. Pepper 10, is just for men.

Finals – Fossil Fuels The Obama Administration should limit rules on coal exports. Communities should rise up against coal export terminals. Fracking to increase U.S. fossil fuel production is worth it. Increased production of fossil fuels moves society further away from a zero emission future. Electric cars are not zero emission.
