Our youth is our future.

Introduction I would like to begin by thanking my challenger for responding. I truly look forward to a delightful and informative debate and I hope for it to be factual, rational, and logical. I wish to influence my adversary’s opinion on the matter with persuasive techniques and suficient evidence to support my claim. Without further ado, let’s begin. Main Argument Our youth is our future. This is the premise and resolution of the debate. My case is the following: Education quality increases over time. New scientific and technological discoveries are made and they are implemented into the education system. There was once a time when these facts were completely unknown. If you were employed at a major corporation and you were responsible for hiring and firing people, would you rather hire the expienced, older individual or the person that is fresh out of college and has all of the latest information at the ready? Granted, experience is key to anything, whether it is business, politics, or science. However, you must have the latest information accessible. You must have experienced people in leadership positions of a company, but the employees should be those that are younger and fresh out of college. This is, in a sense, the American dream: to work yourself up. These youngsters have the capacity to work themselves towards greatness while those who are experienced have already worked themselves up. This is essential. youthpolicy.org provides the following image: Not only is it logical, but it is also democratic. The above image shows that most people support global youth work. The fact of the matter is that proper education will lead to economic success. Providing the youth more opportunities than older people will ensure economic prosperity. I am not saying that we should abandon the elderly and experienced, but I am simply stating that we should give more opportunities to the youth. I believe that education is, in a sense, much more progressive than experience. Yes, experience will assist in making the right decisions, but education will ensure that you even have the capacity to make those decisions. resources-now.org states, “[s]o you want to make a difference, but you can’t do it all by yourself. Whether you personally want to do something for your community,your nonprofit wants to launch a new program,or your work team needs to implement a project,collaboration is essential,especially in these times of lean resources. Collaboration with community members,nonprofits,large corporations,small businesses,artists,or government agencies can maximize your efforts and increase your audience. There are many benefits of collaboration including new skills and abilities,variety of ideas,increased man power,additional monetary resources,and improved efficiency.” The young mind is capable of things no one can predict or comprehend. The youth is our future. MLA Citations "Youthpolicy.org." Youthpolicyorg. Web. 30 Mar. 2014. <http://www.youthpolicy.org...;. "E3 Alliance | Education Equals Economics." E3 Alliance.
