For example(this is one of the issues of my own today):
Topic:"Give Us Money!" Quoth the Poet
The Issue
The National Poetry Society of WWECX is demanding government-funded programs to promote the arts, especially poetry.
The Debate
1."We need government help to promote culture." says Prudence Dredd, chairperson of the National Poetry Society of WWECX. "Poetry is the soul of our nation, the very pulse of humanity! We will ultimately be judged according to our contribution to artistic enlightenment. In other words, please provide funding for our humble mission to bring the beauty of poetry to the masses!"
2."Artists and poets should support themselves, like everyone else," replies Tobias Hanover, spokesperson for the Capitalism Now Party. "The suffering taxpayers should be given a break. In fact, we should abolish all government subsidies for special interest groups."
3."Poets--who needs them?!" scoffs Aaron Wu, Chairperson Emeritus of the Troglodyte Coalition. "These long-haired troublemakers should all be lined up against the wall and shot! That would be far more entertaining than reading some dumb poems!"
Now I don't want to give subsidies to poetry, but I don't want to cancel all the subsidies, does this mean I can only dismiss this issue? Like all the others I dismissed?
Why can't there be a option to let us make our own decissions, and it wont be very hard, just add another part in the forum and everyone vote for what will be the effect of the decission. Then they'll have some reward for doing that, it's win-win!
