Basing your whole case on an article is faulty, I can point to articles that say similar things frankly, like Wyoming being a better state to raise a family.
I'd implore you to diversify your case. Don't just argue prosperity, I have planned multiple contentions, if you just argue that you'll lose seeing how I'll have several uncontested arguments.
It is cruel to assume a lobster can't feel pain, and then boiling it alive when the science is far from being able to determine if they can or can't feel pain, pigs in slaughter houses are killed quickly and humanely, lobsters should be as well. Also, it wouldn't even be an inconvenience to restaurants seeing that you could just use cold water or a knife as a substitute which is free.
I do think it's animal cruelty, I'm just not interested in that argument so I opted to exclude it from the debate via the resolution.
BTW I disagree with the Swiss and New Zealand restrictions that force the use of an electric stunning machines(2900 euros) when there are moral free/cheap ways to kill lobsters like stabbing in certain area's, or purchasing cheap fish anesthetics.
Well your braver than I am, I'd never accept a debate that was about something I was unfamiliar with, you undeniably did better in your first full debate than I did in my first debate, now the voters will decide the victor.

Okay, well both articles merely proved the same thing though, you must diversify your case.
You used 1 in the debate, frankly i can point to articles that say similar things.

Wyoming boasts a higher quality of life, more natural resources, and a better economy even by per person measurements.
Wyoming is the better state to retire in http://worldpopulationreview.com/states/best-states-to-retire/
Thanks for the vote.
thoroughly enjoyed the debate, the debate topic, and the shorter character limit, hope to see more debates from you in the future.
you're up
How much would each citizen get? I think that would be vital information for this debate.

Excuse the few structural errors, my argument didn't paste correctly.
Not surprised you know this.
I'm aware, learned this from possibly the wisest human being in existence, in this debate--

8 hours left, you should have enough time if you haven't started your argument.
COOL, you've seen the movie, that is so cool.
ohhhhh, I thought you were talking about rocks in the ground.
This is gunna be good.
Would be ideal if it just floated away

It's not on the voter to determine who has the BoP, correct me if I'm wrong.
It's on the debaters to prove to the voters who has the BoP, you failed to do so in my eyes RM.
Am I correct here, the COC voting guide doesn't state how i'm wrong from what I observed.

I don't think it should be legal.

Because I'm not interested in going down that road, arguing if it should be legal or not is very stale to me.
Is this not against what you usually tout, this nation has low corporate tax rates and free markets, not very socialistic. Just curious.

Lol
This isn't about socialism
Welp
Correct, my main point is it is immoral to boil lobsters alive.
This is actually a topic I care a lot about, I haven't heard a convincing argument on the opposing side so I'm gonna stick my neck out on this site.
Well your braver than I am, I'd never accept a debate that was about something I was unfamiliar with, you undeniably did better in your first full debate than I did in my first debate, now the voters will decide the victor.
that was fun
Votes?
Excellent
I am accepting your challenge.
lol it was accepted with 4 hours remaining, so close.
1,580% is the actual oil production difference, this was a mathematical error on my part, I apologise.
very sad you missed out, wouldn't mind debating this in the future with you.
anybody?
cool topic, glad to see new faces on the website.
well if you look up meme definition right under it it has the graph for usage over time
Also if you look the usage of the word Meme overtime, it was apparently used more in 1800, hahaha, what a joke
