SO- T- cant double specTournament: mid america cup | Round: Quarters | Opponent: sage mp | Judge: panel Interpretation: The affirmative must defend EITHER all member nations of the World Trade Organization or reduce all intellectual property protections for medicines. The negative may not read plan inclusive counterplans.Violation: The affirmative defends ONLY Jordan and ONLY data exclusivity. They can read either Jordan OR data exclusivity but not both.Vote neg for limits — there are 164 members , which means their interp justifies reducing any IP protection in any WTO member, creating hundreds of potential AFFs to prep out. This kills negative ground because different countries can have different economic situations that affect the Innovation debate and we lose all disads to global action. Two impacts:1 — Fairness — an unlimited topic makes neg engagement impossible because there'd be tons of new AFFs to prep out every tournament. Uniquely kills small schools because they'd be unable to keep up with the prep burden.2 — Research — the neg loses any incentive to do targeted research when the prep burden is so high so debaters would resort to stale generics and lose topic specific education. That outweighs because we only have 2 months to debate the topic and COVID is uniquely important to many debaters' lives.Paradigms:Drop the debater to deter future abuse.Competing interps because reasonability is arbitrary and invites judge intervention.No RVIs:1~ Illogical – you shouldn't win for being fair,2~ baiting – the best theory debaters would read abusive advocacies to go for the RVI,3~ substance – any initiation of theory ensures the 2NR and 2AR are theory, crowding out substance.Neg theory 1st – 1AC abuse shaped NC construction so if anything we did was bad it was just to get back in the game. | 9/27/21 |

UNITED STATES," https://cite.case.law/f3d/169/737/615055/~~ "Intellectual property protections" are legally established rightsTrevor Brewer 19, legal advisor @ BrewerLong Business Law, "WHAT ARE THE FOUR BASIC TYPES OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS?" https://brewerlong.com/information/business-law/four-types-of-intellectual-property/ brett Violation: The "inhuman" is not a member nation in the world trade organization, and changing our orientation towards technology is not modifying the law to reduce IP protections — that was CX.That's necessary for limits and ground — redefining portions of the resolution permits endless reclarification AND creates incentives to focus 1 part of the library for 4 years — only aligning pre-round research with agent and mechanism solves.Two impacts:First is Fairness – prioritize preserving the competitive aspects of debate – games cannot operate unless both sides can be confident in advance they have an equal chance of winning – the fact they've asked you to vote for them proves we all agree that debate is a competition.Second is Clash – a common point of engagement ensures effective clash, which is a linear impact – negation is the necessary condition for distinguishing debate from discussion, but negation exists on a sliding scale. The topic of discussion is up to the affirmative, but depth and nuanced engagement is determined by negative ground. Any impact intrinsic to debate, not just discussion, comes from negation because it starts the process of critical thinking, reflexivity, and argument refinement.Clash is key to surviving technological accelerationBartanen, Michael D. and R.

This is goldilocks because it preserves both their ability to interrogate technology and guarantees negative ground – any 1AR response to the substance of the strategy is offense for us because it proves our model allows for clear contestation and reading the rest of their theory on the negative solves their offense. | 9/27/21 |
