ND - nebel tTournament: Damus | Round: 3 | Opponent: Peninsula EL | Judge: Louisa Melcher Interpretation: workers is a generic bare plural. The aff may not defend that a just government ought to recognize the unconditional right of a specific type of workers to strike.Nebel 19 Jake Nebel ~Jake Nebel is an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Southern California and executive director of Victory Briefs.~ , 8-12-2019, "Genericity on the Standardized Tests Resolution," Briefly, https://www.vbriefly.com/2019/08/12/genericity-on-the-standardized-tests-resolution/ SM AND -value meaning and standard expectations about what LD resolutions tend to mean. Rules readings are always generalized – specific instances are not consistent. lCohen 01Ariel Cohen (Ben-Gurion University of the Negev), "On the Generic Use of Indefinite Singulars," Journal of Semantics 18:3, 2001 https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/188590876.pdf** AND , it suddenly changes¶ direction, for example to avoid hitting something. That outweighs—only our evidence speaks to how indefinite singulars are interpreted in the context of normative statements like the resolution. This means throw out aff counter-interpretations that are purely descriptiveViolation—they specified health care workersVote neg:1~ Precision –any deviation justifies the aff arbitrarily jettisoning words in the resolution at their whim which decks negative ground and preparation because the aff is no longer bounded by the resolution.2~ Limits—specifying a just government offers huge explosion in the topic since they get permutations of hundreds of types of workers in the world depending on their definition of "workers".Topicality is a voting issue that should be evaluated through competing interpretations – it tells the negative what they do and do not have to prepare forNo RVIs—it’s your burden to be topical. | 11/6/21 |

SO - Manufacturing cpTournament: Heart of Texas | Round: 3 | Opponent: Dwight-Englewood EK | Judge: Danielle Dosch Manufacturing cpThe United States federal government should commit to purchasing sufficient doses of COVID-19 vaccines to meet global demand and establish public-private partnerships to expand global vaccine manufacturing capacity.Buying and exporting vaccines solves while avoiding the china DA.Gianna Gancia 21, (IT, ID) is a member of Parliament’s Development Committee, "Why waiving patents on vaccines is not a good idea," Parliament Magazine, 5-14-2021, https://www.theparliamentmagazine.eu/news/article/why-waiving-patents-on-vaccines-is-not-a-good-idea AND good and humanitarian, without contributing in any way to actually helping them. | 11/7/21 |
SO - T reduceTournament: Heart of Texas | Round: 3 | Opponent: Dwight-Englewood EK | Judge: Danielle Dosch T reduceInterp: Reduce means permanent reductionReynolds 59 – Judge (In the Matter of Doris A. Montesani, Petitioner, v. Arthur Levitt, as Comptroller of the State of New York, et al., Respondents ~NO NUMBER IN ORIGINAL~ Supreme Court of New York, Appellate Division, Third Department 9 A.D.2d 51; 189 N.Y.S.2d 695; 1959 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 7391 August 13, 1959, lexis) AND or degrade. The word "reduce" seems adequately to indicate permanency. Violation – the plan grants a trips waiver, it doesn’t eliminate intellectual property protections for medicines. Also, it is only for novel pandemics which can allow for more IP protections and does not lower IPStandards – Limits – infinite conditions, new laws, and waivers could be placed on the plan – kills predictability and decks a stable nexus of IPR researchGround – adding to the squo allows them to be shifty about what the plan does and get out of generic das and cp – magnified by not specing what the waiver is going to do in the context of the aff or at all in the 1ac allows the 1AR to recharacterize, which functionally makes the aff conditional | 11/7/21 |
