Poll: Debate or Speech?

[Elizabeth]

Nick, I liked the rez for LD (I've done LD and TP), but I realized just how very ambiguous the TP rez "The United States Federal Government should change its enviromental policies" really is. There are so many enviromental issues out there, and there's going to be a plethora of defintions for every case presented next year...all vastly different from one another. I'm concerned about judging TP next year due to the conceivable fact that my head may just end up exploding!
The thing that upsets me most about this resolution is that it doesn't even specify WHERE the USFG should change it's enviromental policies...
In the US only? Anywhere they have a company? A US organization/ company that originates in America but is widespread throughout the world??
...McDonald's?!?
The possibilities are endless.
I did not vote for enviromental policies.
However, I believe that federal lands wouldn't have been much better, seeing as how "federal lands" applies to a vast area as well -- true, that rez is more limited, but it would've given everyone a whole lot of killer research.
But it looks like everyone's gonna be in over their heads next year anyway...
