Wait what exactly are we doing again?

8 people are signing up to give a debate topic
another set of 8 people are choosing
then each of the original set of 8 people each debate 1 of the set of the other 8 people
and we keep debating over and over until there has been like 4 or 5 debates for someone?

There are 16 people okay? There are 8 who choose the debate topic, and 8 who choose out of the debate topics selected by the original 8.

Then in the second round, there will be 8 people left. 4 people choose a debate topic, and 4 PEOPLE CHOOSE OUT OF THE SELCTED ONE.

and so on...

Who is doing the debating? Are the people who come up with topics doing the debating, or are the people choosing the topics (that the original 8 come up with) doing the debating?

Argh. I'll have to say no then. I've got work/studying to do, and I'm already exhausting myself both physically and mentally by debating and voting in debates.

One of the reasons their education system is so great is because they don't focus so much on standardized tests like we do, and we are forced to focus on standardized tests because of George Bush and Barack Obama's policies, No Child Left Behind and Every Student Succeeds act, respectively.

Barack Obama also made our education system worse by making it harder for schools to punish bad kids, thus making schools more dangerous overall. https://nypost.com/2017/12/23/obamas-lax-discipline-policies-made-schools-dangerous/amp/

Barack Obama also assisted Nikolas Cruz in his shooting on Marjory Stoneman Douglass with this policy since it made it harder for the Federal Bureau of Investigation to investigate further into Nikolas Cruz and potentially stop him from shooting that school up. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/mar/5/nikolas-cruz-avoided-police-scrutiny-help-obama-po/

I also don't see how we're "clogging" anything. For this tournament the competitors have to come up with topics that would be interested, so technically it makes sense to discuss things like education since that would be a decent topic for this tournament.
