About Me:	I am a Varsity Congress Debater at Mount Tabor High School. I have been debating for 2 years, mostly in Congress but sometimes in LD. Other than debate my interests include acting and playing Fallout 3.

Beliefs:	While not policers of the world, it is the duty of the United States to be an example to the world. I believe that large corporations often have too much influence and power, and that this is a bad thing. I believe taxes are a civic duty, but shouldn't be overcharged to those who cannot afford them. I believe that "From Each According to his Ability, To Each According to His Need" can work in a mixed/Capitalistic society. I believe in Gay Marriage as a constitutional right. I believe that abortion is highly immoral in ANY view of the world, unless labor would almost certainly kill the mother (e.g. ectopic pregnancy) I believe it is our duty to try to combat the damage we have caused to the environment. The Nicene Creed accurately describes my religious beliefs, but the First Amendment describes my view towards others religious beliefs. I believe that the war in Iraq is unnessecary and should never have been initiated, but if we don't win in Afghanistan we have let freedom down.

Resolved: The United States should fight the war on terror until Al-Qaeda is eliminated.

I would like to thank any opponent who chooses to accept this debate. I am going to take the Affirmitive argument, that we should continue fighting the war in Afghanistan until all top Al-Qaeda officials have been killed or captured and the organization can no longer be a further threat, and if needed we should take this fight against Al-Qaeda elsewhere as well. Unlike with the invasion of Iraq, we were clearly attacked by Al-Qaeda, and that attack killed nearly 3,000 Americans. Additiona...

•	Occupy Movement	N/S
•	Progressive Tax	N/SComments People who have more money need to surrender more money. That's just the way it is. We can't dump the tax on people with LESS money, that would be absurd.

•	Social Programs	N/SComments Their programs that help unfortunate people? People who are con for this: Is there ANY cause you'd give up money for? Just because the government does something that does not make it bad.
•	Social Security	N/SComments We need to help the people in this country who need it, plain and simple.
•	Socialism	N/S
•	Stimulus Spending	N/S
•	Term Limits	N/SComments If the people keep electing them then they should continue to serve in their office, even if that is for a long time.
•	Torture	N/S
•	United Nations	N/SComments There are times it doesn't work, but I think it is an extreamly important concept to unite the world and encourage equal rights for all people.
•	War in Afghanistan	N/SComments We MUST capture Osama bin Laden, he's killed thousands upon thousands of Americans, we can't let him be free.
•	War on Terror	N/SComments They've caused so many deaths in the world. They must be stopped.
•	Welfare	N/SComments Again, we have to help people less fortunate. I do think that the possibility for random drug testing should exist since that seems to be a common abuse of the system, but I think the system should still be in place.
