Question 2 of 3
2. Question
Debate scenario: the affirmative is defending the construction of a high-speed rail system in California. You are the leader of opposition and want to argue that such a plan will result in a disadvantage of the California government kicking poor people off of their land to make room for the project. You have all the parts of this disadvantage, but they are in the wrong order. Place the disadvantage in the following order: 1. uniqueness, 2. link, 3. internal link, 4. impact
-
The plan to build a high-speed rail line will require the government to exercise the use of eminent domain—a term that refers to the taking of private property for public use.
-
Forcefully removing lower income individuals from their land hurts their ability build wealth and escape the cycle of poverty that traps too many Americans.
-
The use of eminent domain will, as it has in the past, target poor communities while bypassing wealthier people.
-
California currently has some of the largest cities in the nation, and the resulting population density has left no corridor through which the rail could go.

Question 3 of 3
3. Question
Debate scenario: the resolution is “The United States should substantially increase investment in desalination.” You don’t know what the affirmative is going to argue, but you have enough information to compose a disadvantage that applies to most cases.

-
Desalination produces super saline brine as a by-product to the purification process.
-
Any species that cannot adapt to the rapidly changing salt levels risks extinction, and could spark an ecological disaster.
-
The world's oceans, and the creatures that inhabit it, have adapted to the current salt levels.
-
Super saturated salt water decreases oxygen levels in the water, suffocating plants and animals.
