[eDebate] Why I like Resolution #2

[CAplayer14 at aol.com]

Matt- You are right on in your assessment of the cooperation topic. At the  
topic meetings we talked about the unilateral counterplan as the largest  
limiting factor on this resolution. I have done some research on the space part  of 
this topic and found that literature will substantially limit the number of  
cases affirmative teams will be able to run. There are simply not a lot of  
prescriptive articles that isolate different proposals for ways to cooperate  
with china in space. In fact, this area was made larger to allow for cases  
outside of space exploration for that reason. Most of these cases will be like  
include china in our mars plans or let them in on x intl space station  project. 
 From what I can tell space debates in this area will not be  crazy, but will 
be good tech/hege/relations debates about chinese counter  balancing in 
space. Also, something we discussed about this topic is the  inherent negative 
ground that china will say no. Which limits all of the areas  and adds some 
predictability to negative strategy. Although I think the area  about terrorism 
makes this topic massive.
