The youth should be more involved in Politics, the Community, and World Order.

Ok, I can think it up, but putting it on paper is a little different. I'm going to try and be as clear as possible. Basically, conformity is exactly what pro is asking of our youth. By saying that our youth should do something plays in to the entire concept. He obviously has been pulled towards being more involved. Others, have chosen to smoke weed all day, enjoy nature, and not have anything to do with the government. Either way is fine! different strokes for different folks. There is no, "he should or she shouldn't." Whatever they are doing, right now, is working for them! So you can't prove anything to be the correct way of doing something, it is only their way of doing it. Pro's overall argument is that our youth SHOULD be more involved, which suggests that being involved in the community, politics, and world order is the CORRECT path for our youth. The statement is flawed, who is to say what is right and wrong? History shows us that radical thinking has revolutionized societies thinking. So I will speak of being radical as a positive for the remainder. Radical thinking doesn't come from reading books or online articles, or our conformed community. Radical thinking comes from experience. Completely original ideas didn't come from our schools encouragement, or our community. In fact, most great poets, dropped out of college because of just that, they didn't want to conform to the institution. Guess what? most of their work was considered radical. Now, considered revolutionary ideas. They had original ideas because they were original, not because they got more involved. Pro says read a book, join a group, I say that would be buying in to conformity even more. I think our youth should be aware of conformity, travel the world, experience what our schools are teaching them, and make their own conclusions. Don't mistake that for being involved, individual activity does not mean we are more involved with others, our community, our state, our nation, our world; simply ourselves. If the debate topic were, "being more involved in politics, community, and world order will probably have a positive impact on the overall quality of our institution," hands down, you would have won the debate. But there is no CORRECT thing to do. What is correct now wasn't correct a hundred years ago and won't be correct a hundred years from now. The youth SHOULD have a mind of there own, which they do, and right now, they are saying they don't want to vote. Guaranteed, that if this country gets bad off enough, people will step up, and get more involved with our government, just as history has proven them to do. Voters, it's easy to vote on the topic of the argument and his side is obviously more favorable. However, he has not proven that being more involved is the CORRECT thing to do, because it can not be proven. Right and wrong are not concrete words but change with time and geographic location. He has simply given examples on why he thinks our youth should be more involved. I say our determination of right and wrong is, overall, conformity. Therefore, SHOULD and SHOULD NOTS are only a part of our current societies beliefs. IT IS NOT CONCRETE, and therefore can not be proven. I'm not saying that youth being more involved won't be for our institutions best interest, or even for their best interest. I'm simply saying that the topic of his choice implies that being involved is correct, which can not be true. There is no correct way of doing one thing. Let me point out to you, voters, that I have not disproven his theory on improving our government. I think that voting is important. I'm simply disproving the SHOULD, in the title. There are many ways our youth can gain awareness of our world without reading a book, or joining a school group. So there isn't a CORRECT way for our youth to become aware. Getting them to relate is a great idea, but there are ways other than what Pro has mentioned, which proves that being involved isn't the CORRECT way, it is only a way.
