Candidate, Duke University School of Law, 2013. (Nicholas, NOTE: THE ITEM VETO AND THE THREAT OF APPROPRIATIONS BUNDLING IN ALASKA, 30 Alaska L. Rev. 125, Lexis)BB Violation: they don'tStandards1~ Shiftiness- They can redefine the 1AC's reductions in the 1AR which allows them to recontextualize their enforcement mechanism to wriggle out of DA's since all DA links are predicated on type of enforcement i.e. sanctions bad das, domestic politics das off of backlash, information research sharing da if they put monetary punishments, or trade das.2~ Real World - Policy makers will always specify how the mandates of the plan should be endorsed. It also means zero solvency, absent spec, states can circumvent the Aff's policy since there is no delineated way to enforce the affirmative which means there's no way to actualize any of their solvency arguments.ESpec isn't regressive or arbitrary- it's an active part of the WTO is central to any advocacy about international IP law since the only uniqueness of a reduction of IP protections is how effective its enforcement is. | 9/4/21 |
