I am really bored can someone please entertain me

Ok so first I'll defend, then reattack my opponents case. Contention 1 I don't need sources to say that abolishing MTV would lead to the end of many jobs.(shouldn't have said millions, but MANY) It's common sense. And MTV provides a lot more than a "few hundred jobs." I looked it up, and I couldn't find exact numbers, but in a security breach, the info for 5,000 employees was stolen, so that obviously shows there are more than a "few hundred" http://searchsecurity.techtarget.com... Furthermore, if you could just quit one job/or get fired from one job and miraculously find another on, why would we even have unemployment? I'm pretty sure all those "beneficial jobs" are probably already taken, and we need industries like MTV to provide jobs for us. I'm a little confused on something. Is my opponent trying to argue that the 1.2 million jobs we have lost is not causing the economic crisis we are in? I beg to differ, less jobs = less people making money = less people spending money = economy bad. Also for promoting music my opponent says, use Myspace, Facebook, and Youtube. But don't those also waste time? I don't really see how my opponent can promote Myspace and then advocate abolishing MTV because it's a waste of time without contradicting herself. Contention 2 My opponent seems to think that we have to choose between entertainment or intelligence and knowlege, this is not the case, who's to say humans can't double task? We can learn and also be entertained. Also MTV isn't the only form of entertainment, there are a lot of other shows that people will just switch to if we abolish MTV. Besides there is nothing wrong with being entertained, you can't just study AP physics 24/7, you'd probably die of boredom. Humans need entertainment! Contention 3 The Laws that we have in place and the constitution are put in place in order to protect our rights, but but taking away a citizens choice in what sort of T.V. they want to watch, we voilate their rights to freedom of expression, and liberty. Furthermore if you've actually read the constitution (I have, I know I'm such a nerd, but I had to when I was researching last month LD topic) you'll notice the constitution doesn't restrict the rights of it's citizens it gives rights to it's citizens. For example Amendment 1 gives the right to freedom of press, religion, to peacefully assemble... Amendment 2 gives the right to bear arms, I would go on but I only have so many characters. The constitution gives rights to U.S. citizens and restrains the power of the government. And it is someones choice to smoke, and as you'll notice we haven't made it illegal. As for stealing, doing drugs, killing/murdering(aren't they the same thing?) we make them illegal to protect the rights of the majority of the people in society (we obviously can't let people run around killing each other.) "Is their free choice a viable reason to not provide help to them? Just because they choose to does NOT mean we can not help them make the RIGHT decision" We can help them try to do more educational stuff, but we can't actually order them to stop watching T.V., it would be completely unjust. Now to reattack. Ct. 1 First of Ads and comercials are the same thing, and we don't pay for them, the companies who want theire ads to be shown pay for them, then with that money MTV broadcasts it's programming. WE don't actually pay for it, unless you count buying the things they are advertising. MTV isn't public broadcasting, or whatever it's called, it's privately funded so people can make money from it. Also, Judge Jeanine Pirro and Online Nation (never heard of them, so I wikipediad them) and they both sound like rather ermmm... for lack of a better word, stupid, reality T.V. shows. And the shows on MTV are helpful in the way that they help people relax. Ct. 2 Well if China is being hypocritical, then why should we care what they think if we can just say the same thing about them? "Even then I'm sure they won't call us 'stupid'". Hold up isn't this whole contention supposed to be about other countries thinking we're stupid? "Tell me how our nation looks to others when they see us watching such absurd shows" The only way in which you can make sure Americans don't waste their time on T.V. is by having the Government controll what we watch, and that presents 2 problems 1-SOCIALIST! we can't allow the government to decide what we can/cannot watch! 2-Bad economy, companies won't be able to broadcast their comercials any londer, because nobody would want to watch T.V. any longer. Which= less products being sold, which ultimately lead to a bad economy. Abolishing MTV isn't the first step to stopping people from wasting their time on the T.V., it's the first step toward abolishing democracy, and becoming a socialist nation. Ct. 3 MTV still has millions of viewers, so although the majority of America doesn't watch it, that doesn't mean other people shouldn't be able to. The majority of America is Christian, but does that mean they speak for the entire U.S., and no one else can be any other religion that Christian? No! Also while the majority of America may not watch MTV, I'm pretty sure the majority of America also doesn't have a problem with allowing other people to do as they wish and watch MTV. Okey Dokey, fun debate. Good idea for the resolution! Oh almost forgot. You didn't answer my question on whether or not we could change the resolution to "The entire MTV network shall NOT be abolished." Well can I just assume you agree? So anyways to all you readers out there I urge a Pro vote. Thanks!
