JF - Low Earth Orbit Colonization CPTournament: Palm Classic | Round: 3 | Opponent: Marlborough PP | Judge: Serena Lu Space Col CPText: States ought to adopt a binding international agreement that bans the appropriation of outer space outside of low earth orbit by private entities by establishing outer space outside of low earth orbit as a global commons subject to regulatory delimiting and global liability.That competes –The resolution/plan is entirety of outer space, but CP is only a small portion of space between the Earth and moon, but it’s the most developed and written about portion of the resolution – skirting conversation about the LEO area erases decades of literature.Commercialization of LEO allows government agencies to focus on deep space exploration and makes research for space colonization more efficientJulie 12/9/21 (Alyssa, International News Producer and Journalist, Global News, "How the Private Space Race is Allowing NASA to Explore New Frontiers," https://globalnews.ca/news/8408558/how-the-private-space-race-is-allowing-nasa-to-explore-new-frontiers/) AND for scientists and astronomers hoping to conduct research in space, Rogerson adds.

JF - Militarization DATournament: Palm Classic | Round: 2 | Opponent: San Mateo ZS | Judge: Grant Brown The US government is perfectly positioned to focus on space governance and let private entities develop tech – this avoids bilateral or unilateral missions that increase the chance for conflict and space weaponization while creating effective multilateral agreements that spill overRosenberg and Marber 21 (Mark Y. - CEO of Geoquant and an adjunct professor at Columbia University’s School of International and Public Affairs, Peter - teaches at Harvard University and is a senior portfolio manager at Aperture Investors, 2/22, "America Needs a Supercharged Space Program," ~accessed 9/25/21~, https://foreignpolicy.com/2021/02/22/biden-space-force-race-policy-rockets-china/) AND Who else but the United States could even contemplate such a bold plan?

ND - Firefighters PICTournament: USC Trojan Invitational | Round: 5 | Opponent: Marlborough PP | Judge: Benjamin Cortez Text: The 49 United States excluding California ought to recognize an unconditional right for incarcerated workers to strike.

ND - Workers Freedom PICTournament: Glenbrooks | Round: 5 | Opponent: Scarsdale RM | Judge: Tate Weston Worker’s Freedom PICThe AC is an effort in "left legalism", they believe the right to strike is not adequately protected and the solution is to codify it. This ignores that it is the nature of rights themselves in liberal societies that produce conflictDimick, JD/PhD, 19 AND by the state apparatus, that have justified restrictions on concerted worker activity. Subordination- rights weaken labor movements by making them dependent on a corrupt legal system. Cross-national analysis shows rights never help, they only hurtDimick, JD/PhD, 19 AND objectives may, whether intentionally or not, undermine working-class interests. Prefer negative methodology- a comparative history approach reveals flaws in the affirmatives "critical labor law" approach.

Statism destroys value to lifeKateb – Professor of Politics and Director of the Program in Political Philosophy at Princeton – 1992 (George, The Inner Ocean p. 117-118) AND therefore is the most extreme form of illegitimate or anti-constitutionalist doctrine.
