All right, so since I want to see a different topic out there...this one's from February's Lincoln-Douglas topic:
Resolved: A government's obligation to protect the environment ought to take precedence over its obligation to promote economic development. I'm on the negative side for this, seeing that only by providing a healthy, stable economy can you be able to help the environment. The products of a good economy are what help improve the environment. Haha don't worry...I have more points...I've researched both sides to this, so bring it on. ![]() |

QUOTE(Kathleen @ May 13 2004, 9:30 PM) Are we not supposed to utilize it? It's there for us - we need the economy to survive, and we should use it. No it's not wrong to use it... but... In economics, the most concern is usually efficiency in the allocation of resources. The environment is a resource and therefore must be used efficiently. Edit:: but so far, we're not doing a very good job of it. |
