In Chuck Palahniuks Fight Club, our insomniac hero realizes that the only place he can find any solace is in the weekly support groups for cancer patients, the living dead. But as with any drug, this soon loses its effect. The Insomnias back. Along comes Tyler Durden, the most interesting Single Servicing Friend that our hero will ever meet. Instead of pornography, our heros world consisted of the monthly IKEA furniture catalog and all he had to worry about is the next worthless piece of German shit that will furnish his apartment. In the blink of an eye, its all gone. Everything he has worked for, his apartment, his endless struggle for perfection has now been blown into the night sky, into the windshields of cars of men from all walks of life. What once was a drunken attempt at self-destruction has become a nation-wide organization. Project Mayhem. The end goal of Project Mayhem is to destroy the major credit card companies. You mix x and y and you get enough dynamite to blow up the world. But if you have too much of x, it goes wrong. Fight Club ends with a promise to continue project mayhem. Front row sears to the beginning of the cultural Ice Age.
*No Author* pg. 41-46
The affirmative is one small part in an infinite drive for perfection. There is a perfect world out there, they say, a world without war and famine and pain and we can at least get closer if you buy the plan. Just sign your ballot, made out to___________, then all the problems, and the extinction, everything, just go away. This is the logic of consumerism. Arguments, ballots, wins and losses are all capital. They want to be smarter, stronger, faster better roleplayers, policy makes, activists, Americans, revolutionaries of whatever. We debate arguments we know are dumb so we can learn things we dont care about. TO do this, they advertise the plan as well as they can, the one must have item that will bring us closer to perfection. We tell ourselves lies to ward off this undeniable truth, but its always in the back of our minds: these arguments are meaningless and vacous, preserved only because our lives are so permeated by cultural images that we literally know now what we do.
Pg. 149
Debate is our piece of the great depression of the spirit. Were so caught up in the plan and the draft and rma and the bomb and what Hu Jintau thinks about it, that weve lost touch with authentic human interaction. When the value of our time here becomes defined by how recent our evidence is, and all interaction between you and me is just a play, an image, what are our lives but spectacular dramas played out against the green sceen of culture? We are moving images on a TV screen. Culture and Truth are frozen our there somewhere, embedded in a historical context that it seems impossible to affect.All we know is alienation. Alienation from each other, alienation from our-selves, alienation from our desires, alienation from life itself. We are historys middle children.
Pg. 122-125
Wed be foolish to believe we can escape this endless drive for perfection by simply re-adjusting our path. The alternative isnt to buy a new type of sofa, but to blow up the condo and move to the toxic waste part of town and make soap with our schizophrenic alter-ego. We have to disappear from culture. We have to hit rock bottom. We have to kiss our hand, pour lye on it and know that one day we will dy. Its only when you lose everything that you are free to do anything. Our alternative is a lens for viewing this round. A round should not receive its value because it feeds into some larger standard or goal, but should mean something in and of itself. Harms and solvency are cultural images used to keep us chasing images of what we SHOULD be. We have to form a new relationship with life, we have to realize that we are NOT our advocacies, we are NOT our win-loss records, we are NOT our state points and we are NOT how many tubs we roll into rounds with. Our redemption will come the momembt we have nothing, in that moment of perfect self-destruction where we give up the world as we know it and find out just what its like to hit rock bottom. When we find our just how much blood we can swallow before we get sick.

National Service K:
Through systems of ail and care NAT SERVE PROVIDERS engage in experimentation, research, and investigations to exploit the body as an object of knowledge. By imposing specific strategies of power and regulation upon their client communities they further define them into statist institutions In the name of their own betterment and well good- treating society as a population to be normalized and controlled.
Gorham 1992 (Eric, National Service, Political Socialization, and Citizenship)
Increasing the number of persons in national serve programs only serves to create a larger pool of registrants to be studied and brought under closer government control. By accumulating and storing data about the registrant, organizations create a static computerized identity that homogenizes communities and forces them into their new identities.
Gorham 1992 (Eric, National Service, Political Socialization, and Citizenship)
Subpoint C- The collectivist sentiment embodied in national serve programs is responsible for all wars in human history
Mayer 1999 (http://users.law.capital.edu/federalistsociety/fp3/kosovo.htm)
Subpoint D- is the Alternative
Our criticism is of the method they have chosen to use. Embrace the notion of volunteering without the extra baggage of government intervention. Vote negative to reject illegitimate government coercion and embrace true volunteerism
Bandow 1993(http://www.fee.org/publications/the-freeman/article.asp?aid=1899)
Text: Refuse to connect service to the national government
Instead of conceiving citizenship as pledging our allegiance to the nation and serving its selflessly we should instead seek to become part of a broader political communities outside of the nation state apparatus. Conceiving of citizenship as an ongoing process informed by everyday experiences opens up space for thought and action within disciplinary discourses and created broader communities based on common experiences and understandings
Hildreth 2000 (R.W., Theorizing Citizenship and Evaluating Publuc Achievement, Political Science and Politics, Sept, v33 p627)
And their criticism solves back any and all case impacts through democratic deliberation

Past Congressional elections prove that the Bush doctrine rears its ugly head against evildoing countries like Iran when Bush needs to regain the conservative base.

Striking Iran is a perfect method for Bush to recover just before the elections
Krugman, 4-10-06 [New York Times, Lexis]
Bush may believe that he can redeem himself with a new mission accomplished moment
Strike on Iran turns all of your impacts---it ensures permanent Iranian nuclearization after they withdraw from the NPT, it causes Israeli attack and Hezbollah terrorism, and it destroys the economy because Middle Eastern oil markets collapse from Iraq instability and closure of the Straits of Hormuz.
Rogers, February 2006 [Iran: Consequences of a war]
One major aim of any US military action would be to forestall Iranian interference with Gulf oil exports, this would have to be near total in its effect on Iranian capabilities

Counterplan: Text the Department of Education will mandate that public primary schools require service-learning as part of curricula and all public secondary schools require service as part of the curriculum for at least one course that each student takes for each grade level.
Competition: We don't use Learn and Serve America and avoid spending disads.
Counterplan isn't Topical
The Counterplan solves- their 1AC author explains how Status Quo Service Learning can be changed to ensure civic envgagement
Kahne and Westheimer- Professor of American studies and Education at Mills Colelge, Associate Professor of Democracy, Education, and Society at the university of Ottawa- 2003
[Joseph and Joel, DEMOCRACY AND CIVIC ENGAGEMENT- What schools Need To DO. Phi Delta Kappan, Volume 85, Issue 1, p. 34 Questia]
Is this too tall an order?... through workshops and simulations
The 1AC Claims sound nice, but in reality undermine educational efforts and teach a very narrow liberal vision of social and political change.
Matthew Spalding, PhD and director of the center for American studies at the heritage foundation, Principles and Reforms for Citizen Service, 4-1-2003, pg. Http://www.heritage.org/Research/Labor/bg1642.cfm
The problem with Learn and Serve America.... in social and political change.
Learn and Serve Should be discontinued- it undermines education and civic responsibility.
Spalding 03- cited above.
Congress should end the learn and serve program.... basis of voluntary service.
This is an assertion there is little evidence that Service Learning increases academic responsibility
Jennifer Halfacre, the University of Mississippi, Deborah Chessin, the University of Mississippi and Martha Chambless, the university of Mississippi, Academic Exchange Quarterly, 3-22-2006, pg. Lexis
Mintz and Liu (1994) reported that Service-Learning is a teaching and learning method... social responsibility among middle school students.
Federal Action causes a trade-off of funding and personnel from volunteerism and causes an abdication of civic responsibilities.
Spalding 03- cited above.
Any expanded government role.... honor the efforts of private citizens.
Using Federal incentives to promote national service is a coercive endorsement of collectivist ideology at the expense of the individual- it culminates in totalitarianism.
Epstein 02 (Alex writer for the Ayn Rand Institute, regular contributor to The Intellectual Activist, and fromer Editor-in-Chief and publisher of the Duke Review, Capitalism Magazine, 2/4, http://www.capmag.com/article.asp?ID=1393)

How Much Decentralization is Enough?.... surrmount, remains to be seen.
The Affirmative's idea of enforced volunteerism is 1)an oxymoron 2) a politically correct way of saying forced labor and 3) a message saying that you, the citizens, are a pawn of the government's needs.

Statism:

Beres 94 (Arizona Journal of International and Comparative Law, Spring)
the problem of the omnivorous stateimprisoned within us
We cannot compromise with the state systemwe must recognize all of their refined advantages are just lies to preserve the system. The impact is genocide, war, and ultimately extinction.

Referendum:
text: the united states federal government should conduct a binding national referendum on the mandates of the affirmative plan. Absent majority opposition, the plan will be implemented through congress to solve the harms of the affirmative. If there is majority opposition to the plan, further debates and initiatives will be held on the proposal. Negative reserves the right to clarify text and intent.

Americorps Kritik
A. The affirmative portrayal of America within their 1AC constructs domination of the object over the subjects- this vision of the world through the we and the peripheral they requires endless wars in the name of protecting the American way.
Peet, 2005 (Richard, graduate school of geography at Clark University, From Eurocentrism to Americentrism, Antipode, p. http://www.blackwell-synergy.com/doi/pdf/lO.lllllj.0066-4812.2005.00542.x)
All centrisms see the world through... compelling critique of Americentrism.>
B. Americentrism's goal is simply more than keeping the barbarians at the gate- it justifies the active use of violence and endless wars against the outsider to achieve its desire ends
Peet 2005- cited above
For Barnett, September 11,... Security problems and instability tend to concentrate.>

India Nuclear Deal
A. Uniqueness and Internal Link- The india Nuclear Deal will be the first thing on congress' docket when it returns after the midterm elections. Fiat means the plan passes at the first available opportunity, delaying debate and passage of the deal. Any delay kills support for the deal in India, but it will pass in the U.S. Now if not delayed

Kritik
Liberal, mainstream queer politics based on rights and the inclusion of sexual minorities into the existing system fail to adequately combat oppression and perpetuate racist and sexist divisions within the queer movement itself. Rather than strive for inclusion in a system based on militaristic oppression, queer politics should, as an alternative, use the absolute rejection of participation int eh United States military as a starting point for a unified revolutionary movement grounded in the intersections of racial, gendered, and sexual oppression.
Barbara Smith 7/5/93 (Wheres the Revolution? www.thenation.com/doc/19930705/19930705smith)
Alternative test: Vote neg to reject the affirmatives participation in the military, instead embrace a revolutionary approach to address intersections of racial, gendered, and sexual oppressions.

Bernauer 1990 (James W., Professor of Philosophy at Boston College, Michel Foucaults Force of Flight: Toward an Ethics for Thought; Humanities Press International, Pg. 92-93)
Totalization inscribes what is unquestionably good and bad. This binary serves to justify the domination and extermination of the inherently bad.
Newman 2003 (Saul, Postdoctoral Fellow at W. Australia U, Stirner and Foucault: Toward a Post-Kantian Freedom)
Attempting to manage to nuclear threat is biopolitical: the power to decide who is worthy to have these weapons and who is only worthy to be killed by them is inherent in the nuclear threat. Our attempts to manage the supposed nuclear problem only makes it worse.

Foucault, 78 (Michel, Philosopher and Chair at the College de France, The History of Sexuality pg. 135-137).
To avoid the replication of negative biopolitics we must move beyond the affirmative view of the resolution. Prescribing a course of action is impossible: each instance of biopolitics is unique and must be interrogated on its own.

The focus on securing America is legitimated by a focus on the citizenry the affirmatives call to enlist national service to aid the hegemony is way to mobilize action agisnt those not part of the American identity.
(Keith Krause. Prof. of philosophy at Oxford, and Michael C. Williams, PhD candidate at York University, Critical Security Studies From Strategy to Security: Foundations of Critical Security Studies 44-45, 2002)
The 1ACs presentation of threats engages in a specialized security discourse that views society as an object to be manipulated by policy action. The affirmative grabs alternate discourses in a chokehold, discursively justifying the violence it tries to erase.
(Ole Waever, professor of International Relations at University of Copenhagen, 1998, Chapter three of On Security by Ronnie D. Lipschutz, http://www.ciaonet.org/book/lipschutz)
American identity is never stable as long as the protection of identity is held as paramount, foreign policy attempts at security are inevitable.
(David Campbell, teaches international relations theory and foreign policy at Newcastle University, 1998, Writing Security)
The securitization of the nation culminates in nuclear wars, which become the only way to successfully assert American identity against threats.
(David Campbell, teaches international relations theory and foreign policy at Newcastle University, 1998, Writing Security)
The alternative text: Vote negative to resist the security of identity.
Security discourse will remain unchallenged only if we continue to understand it as grounded in objective truths. Exposing security as a subjective method of control allows reflexive change.
(Keith Krause. Prof. of philosophy at Oxford, and Michael C. Williams, PhD candidate at York University, Critical Security Studies From Strategy to Security: Foundations of Critical Security Studies 49-51, 2002)
We must ignore attempts at using fear to mobilize identity, and instead embrace the threats that are supposedly imminent. The encouragement to sacrifice in the name of a supposed national identity fractures the human identity into various political roles.
(Der Derian, Prof. of Poly Science at University of Massachusetts, 1998, The Value of Security: Hobbes, Marx, Nietzsche, and Baudrillard, http://www.ciaonet.org/book/lipschutz/lipschutz12.html)
Recognizing the immutability of life in the face of danger instills a sense of completely connectivity in which difference is not only accepted, but appreciated. When we stop looking to the state for protection, rejecting the nothing of protection all together, the care for life becomes the highest possible value.
(William Connolly, Kreiger-Eisenhower Prof. of Poly Science at John Hopkins, 1991, Identity Difference: Democratic Negotiations of Political Paradox, pg. 167)
Discussions of citizenship must address questions of subjectivity. The way we orient our being is fundamental to the way its exerted in security.

Normativity, a la shlaug
I apologize for the lack of citations etc., but they have refused to give me the evidence. It was all schlaug and Delgado. The link was the idea of should, that weh ought tojut dothings, not just say we should dothe plan. their impact was something called social freeze, essentially, that the aff gets no solvency. the alternative was to reject normativity, which yes, is a normative statement.

The Plan props up the state for military violence- using the plan to force other to participate in the state aloows for legitimized violence

Militarism as an altenative is the cause of of violence
William Bradford 2004, In the mInds of Men: A theory of Compliance with the laws of war, Arizona state law review
Modern governmentality is produces and reproduced by practices of trauma and memory. The setting off of specific forms of historical violence as genocide, the assumption of the sovereign subject, all of these are bound up in he time and space of politics as it has been classically understood. The affirmative replicates all of these practices, and without hesitation, without anything but a token recognition of the ongoing pattern of violence, management and concealment that has characterized modern power. This critique is an attempt to disrupt politics by occupying the space of the political.
Jenny Edkins 2003 Trauma and the Memory of Politics
The unstable logic of bio-politics makes globally destructive conflict an accepted fact of life- the necessity of constantly producing a new outside against which to mobilize ones own population causes violence for its own sake and requires the production of the universally destructive technologies to threaten all population with death.
Mitchell Dean States of Imagination, P. 53-56
Attempting to help the population is part of more effective and complex mechanism of power that use consent and the rhetoric of seurity, humanitarianism, and well-being to acheiv docility to discipline
Barry Smart 1986 Foucault; a critical reader pp. 161-162
Biopolitics is managed through the use of a Corps to survey bodies. The normalization and power over life is inextricably linked to power over death. Entire populations can be discarded.

5 0ff, On Case Solvency
Topicality- Increase means not reallocate
Interpretation- increase means the Aff can only make a direct increase, not allocate where volunteers go
Violation- the plan specifies volunteers go to NCCC
Standards- a. Limits- hundreds of different places within organizations plan can allocate b. Extra topicality- specifying is extra topical, unpredictable and can spike ground
T is a voter for fairness and reasons above.
Gates Foundation Counterplan
Theory- counterplan is not topical, doesnt use the USFG
Competition- A. Counterplan competes via net-benefits
Solvency-
Bureaucratic mismanagement of problems dooms solvency, own 1AC inherency evidence proves
Americorps lacks enough volunteers and resources to solve
Midterms- GOP Good Disadvantage
GOP will win the midterms because of falling gas prices
There is GOP opposition to Americorps
Bush will lash out and attack Iran if GOP seems like a loser
U.S. attack on Iran leads to global nuclear war and extinction
Cosmopolitanism/National Service K
National Service promotes allegiance and loyalty to a nation state
Focus on the nation prevents us from adopting a cosmopolitian ethic
Enforcing national identity prevents global solutions to global warming, only a cosmopolitanism ethic can solve
Alt: Reject the Affirmatives rhetoric of national service and use the ballot as an affirmation and adoption of cosmopolitanism.
An ethic of Cosmopolitanism is key to solve
Statism K
Reform from within the state will fail and prevent effective change within society
They allow for state action, and since the state was the original cause of their impacts, they only perpetuate the root cause of the harms through using the state
Affs own inherency evidence indicates bureaucracy can never solve, instead foster nation state
Affs choice of a nation state causes the ultimate cultivation of totalitarianism
The counterplan is the alternative- it doesnt use the state, and doesnt link.
Solvency
1. Bush will hijack Americorps for faith-based initiatives
2. That turns the case- faith based initiatives cause bad administration, dooming solvency
T:
A) Interpretation-
1. A policy requires coercive sanctions to compel participation
Mayer, prof of social work @ Fordham U, 1985 [Robert R., Policy and Program Planning: A Developmental Perspective, p. 18]
2. National Service programs describe mandatory service via negative sanctions
Lind, senior fellow @ the new American Foundation, 2003 [Michael, United We Serve, ed: Dionne, p. 122]
B) Violation- the plan allows voluntary incentives, only the negative sanctions are topical
C) Voter
1. limits- we limit down to cases that require mandatory service. They explode the topic by allowing for all types of incentives or the elimination of certain barriers becoming topical
2. Ground- mandatory service is key to our links to coercion, voluntary CP, and all disads based off an increase because mandatory participation is the only guarantee that the increase actually occurs-its n enforceable obligation
3. Potential abuse = voter
T:
A) Interpretation-
.1. The Coast Guard is not part of the Armed Forces
2. The Coast Guard is not part of Homeland Security
B) Violation- the aff increases the number of person serving in the Coats Guard, not the Armed Forces
C) Standards-
1. limits- it allows any group that isnt actually part of the armed forces
2. research- doubles the amount of research because the Coast Guard is their own separate area of the resolution
3. ground-
D) potential abuse = voter
CP: The USFG should have the US navy seize the international functions of the Coast Guard
1) The multimission role of the Coast Guard wrecks its maritime leadership abilities- only the CP solves the case
Stubbs, CG service member and a member of the Heritage Foundation study group on homeland security, Aug 2004 [Bruce, multimission costs too much US Naval Institute Proeedings, Aug2004, Vol. 130, Issue 8, Academic Search Premier]
2) Reducing the multimission focus is the only way the Coast Guard will be able to effectively work with the navy andn conduct its corer missions well

D) Economic collapse results in extinction- C/A Bearden 2000
Cosmopolitanism K:
1) Enforcing a national identity prevents an effective response to global problems- only articulating a shared identity to the world can build connections necessary to prevent extinction
Smith, 2003 [Rogers, Prof of Political Science @ U of PA and PhD Harvard U, Stories of Peoplehood. The politics and morals of political membership, p. 166-169]
Alt: Reject the Affs endorsement of National Service and use the ballot to affirm cosmopolitan ethics
2) Our alt envisions a world of new global citizenship devoid of national identity- individual attempts to foster attitudinal change are vital to a larger consciousness shift. The educational setting of debate is the vital first step towards realizing global identity
