Two-person team debate in which one team (the affirmative) generally proposes a policy which they advocate throughout the brave. The negative then argues against the affirmative case and plan on several levels - procedural, kritikal, and policy. Constructive speeches (2 per team) last 8 minutes and are punctuated by an additional 3-minute cross-examination period in which the opposing team asks questions to clarify and discredit the speaker's positions. Rebuttals (again, 2 per team) last 5 minutes and have no cross-examination period.
On the national circuit, and many other "champ" or "varsity" tournaments, delivery rate is extremely rapid, resulting in an atmosphere that emphasizes strategy and good argumentation over delivery and persuasion.

My parents used to get upset over the time I spent on policy debate - cutting cards, travelling to tournaments, and such.

When you meet someone you don't really care for and don't want to talk to you can implement the asshole policy by immediately portraying yourself as an asshole. The desired effect is that the other person will leave you alone.
When you meet someone that is obviously arrogant you can implement the asshole policy by coming off as an asshole before they have a chance to be an assohole first.

You: "I was at the bar last nite and this fat drunk chick started hitting on me, I had to tell her that the dress she was weraring makes her look fat to get her to leave me alone."
Friend: "Oh so you implemented the asshole policy?"
You: "Yes I certainly did!"
Example 2
Loser sitting next to you: "Hey man, watch this I'll bet I can get that hot bartender into bed tonight."
You: "Dude you couldn't get laid in a monkey whore-house if you had a sack full of bannanas." (You just put the asshole policy into effect)

This is the policy that states the internet provider Bell is allowed to access the chip in your brain that is produced by the COVID-19 vaccine and that they can update it through their internet connection and sell your information to the world elites.
Anthony: Bell’s Policy allowed Bell to brainwash Connor.
Connor: I’m not brainwashed by Bell’s policy.
Anthony: Yes you are. You have been brainwashed by the world elites due to the corona virus which China has been creating for the last 30 years to create biological warfare and normalize lockdown. Also they have spied on us through Tik Tok.
Connor: Your retarded.

The means by which entities, as government agencies, as the Federal Reserve, Department of the Treasury, and institutions as the central bank, control the supply of money (M1, M3). This process includes trading in foreign exchange markets.
Monetary policy can but viewed in its two forms: expansionary and contractionary. Expansionary policy increases the total money supply (liquidity) and is used to fight unemployment or recessionary pressures, mainly by lowering interest rates. Direct cash infusions to struggling private institutions or government rebates to individuals can be used as emergency measures to avoid panic runs on banks as was seen in the 1929 market crash. These measures are very dangerous and are considered highly inflationary and destabilizing to currency exchange rates. Economic theory would indicate that such uncontrolled printing of money, indicates failure of fiscal policy (which refers to government borrowing, spending, and taxation).
Contractionary policy is used to control inflation by raising interest rates. A "perfect storm" scenario would be when a government "should be" using a contractionary policy and resorts to an expansionary policy.

The world is very critical of the monetary policy of the United States and is punishing it by devaluing its currency.
