Billion


A. Interpretation – the affirmative must mandate an increase in public health by allocating at least one billion dollars.

United States Congreence of Catholic Bishops and Catholic Relief Services, 2003, “Testimony on 2003 Foreign Assistance”, http://216.239.51.104/search?q=cache:Ox-0GbeCOy0J:www.nccbuscc.org/sdwp/international/ftesap02.htm+%22united+states+conference+of+catholic+bishops%22+%22substantial+increase%22+2003&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=us.

The Administration has proposed an increase …

including HIV/AIDS, malaria and tuberculosis;


B. Violation – neither their plan text nor their solvency advocate says they allocate 1 billion dollars to public health.
C. Standards:

1. Bright line—our interpretation provides the clearest delineation between topical and not topical cases—That’s necessary to know the bounds of the resolution and helps debate.


2. Limits—our interpretation limits the topic to cases, which provide a lot of financial support—that limits out small squirrelly affirmatives, which we wouldn’t have, any links to.
3. Predictable ground—our interpretation ensures negative links to core of the topic disads and counterplans like spending and NGOs—that ensures fairness and education.
D. Topicality is a voting issue for fairness and education and should be evaluated in a competing interpretations framework, becuase they are least arbritary

Consult Egypt


TEXT: The United States Federal Government should enter into prior, binding consultation with the government of Egypt over the following proposal: ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________.

The United States Federal Government will continuously advocate the proposal but will allow the government of Egypt to propose changes to implementation. All of the Egyptian proposals will be accepted.


Our counterplan is competitive – our net benefits prove the distinction between the counterplan and any permutation and our solvency evidence makes a clear distinction between unilateral implementation and consultation. Any permutation severs out of the immediacy and the nature of fiat, because the counterplan can be altered or vetoed. We have resolutional support – resolved means to make a firm decision about – that’s dictionary.com 7.
