I am absolutely Con to the first one. Are you saying Con can't include any state involvement in their solution though?

State-involvement can apply as well.

Okay yeah I'll definitely accept. For tiny bit of reference for you:



Among my ranting-debate there is basically a glimpse of what I'm going to bring against you.

For now I'll define it as North America and Western Europe.

Reform>Revolution unless Revolution is the only means of Reform. I will prove this algorithm absolutely true based on not just history but also pure logic of how Fascism demonises opposition better the more blatantly vicious/overt that it is.

I would like a debate on the role of government in the United States with someone who supports a primarily nationalized social payment system more or less as a permanent solution, taking the position of a nationally decentralized system, with national intervention in industrial regulation, and social security.

Additionally, I would also like a debate from a voters perspective of what should be considered consentable approach to healthcare by representation.

Do MS-13 and radical Islamists count as part of the west, or are they just intrusions?

I would like a casual "debate" with a socialist just to bring out their views with respect to concepts like liberty, self governance, the nature of right etc... Also I would like to know how/if mobacracy is respected.  Is socialism incompatible with capitalism and/or property rights?
