Debate me about anything you disagree with Ron Paul on: foreign policy, economy, Iraq/Iran, etc

I dont mind you missing the round, things happen. I was close to missing mine as well. I will still answer the arguments presented. "My opponent claims that, because they know a couple of people that homeschooling didn't work for, that giving parents the option and incentive to home school their kids can't work. Under that logic, public school can't work because I know MULTITUDES of people that the public school system didn't work for. My opponent then goes on to say that the public school system is as good as any in the world, and then says it's far from the best. Which is it? Anyone who's paying attention can see that our school system is failing our country terribly." I do realize my typo and im sorry for any misunderstanding due to it, it was late when i posted that. But i agree that the school system is failing, i am currently in high school, and for some students it is not working. We all see the problem. A solution is possible, with a deep understanding of the problem, an intricate solution can be found. However, the plan Ron Paul is advocating is far from the solution. And will cost U.S. taxpayers to a great degree. "My opponent claimed that I dropped his arguments in round 2 by addressing how the MANY downfalls of the public school system outshines their logic of knowing a couple of kids who homeschooling didn't work for, so anyone who home schools their kids will not be held accountable, and thus it can't work for anyone. To directly address a lack of accountability and giving money to parents, I would say that my opponent needs to research the home school success ratio vs that of a public school and then tell me what works and what doesn't. What about the several issues raised in my argument that my opponent failed to discuss?s" I don't believe that I dropped any arguments, I took much time and consideration to construct my argument. However, my opponent clearly did drop those arguments, significant ones. Thankfully, after being reminded of those arguments he did have an answer. "I would say that my opponent needs to research the home school success ratio vs that of a public school and then tell me what works and what doesn't." Currently 2.2 percent of kids are homeschooled, and yes we do see success with many. But as my example, and my opponents example points out, it does not work for everyone. And for my opponents example it lead to his death. And as my opponent pointed out, the public school system does not work for everyone. Again, I am not against homeschooling as a whole, just what this plan wil do. As many know, most kids dont want to be in school. Parents would be willing to let them "drop out" of the system to be homeschooled so they can recieve the benefits Ron Paul is offering, but will have their children do nothing school related, because they will not be held accountable. This plan is what we are debating on and I have fully proven that this plan will not solve the problem in the school system. What can happen would not solve the problem, but make it worse. By not holding them accountable. Because I have done that there is no way you cannot vote for the neg side. "I would also like to add that I just realized that my opponent is only 15, according to his profile. If this is true, I say kudos to him. I have never met a 15 year old who had such a firm grasp of political affairs, and the ability to rationally defend their argument. Good show." Yes I am only 15. I'm a sophmore in high school, I've learned a lot from the debate team. Thank you for the kudos and recognition. You also brought up some great points. It was hard debating you against something Ron Paul believes in, because he is the one I am "supporting" in the presidential election. Ron Paul is great for many, many things, he is a true person, that is what we desperatly need in the white house but this is not a stong point. Thank you for a great, friendly, and educational debate.
