Bertrand's ACE Debate

Nike's company value is worth 15 billion dollars. Under Armour is worth only one billion dollars. Nike's brand has much more worth. Showing how many people probably prefer Nike over Under Armour.

Nike also has more years of experience than Under Armour does. Under Armour was founded in 1996. But Nike was founded in 1964. This proves that Nike has 32 more years of experience than Under Armour.

I think Nike is better than Under Armour because according to a number of sources, such as www.athletepromotions.com, Nike has more celebrity athlete endorsements than Under Armour. This shows that more athletes trust Nike than they do Under Armour. Some athletes include Derek Jeter, Micheal Finley, Cc Sabathia and Adrian Peterson.

Along to not having a job, They wont have money to support themselves, pay for things or help with anything they or their family needs. This will cause some economy problems with money expenses and funds.

So raising the driving age would NOT prevent that. It would delay the age. Just as many people would die. Just at a different age. The teens only need more experience. If you really wanted to prevent the death rates, start drivers ed at a younger age. And still have teens get their license at age 16.

I agree with this because when you get to an age around 16, you should probably get money and try to support yourself a little bit more. Paying for a car could greatly help your parents. But, if you don't have a license, you can't get a job to pay for it. You would need a way to get to work. Most likely a summer job, and many would be during the day. You can say "Well, you parents could get you to work." But, most adults work doing the day as well. So, that still resorts you to walking and biking. And remember, its summer. Walking a long distance can result to heat stroke if your not safe.

You may say that they are more responsible, but actually, driving accidents are not prone to age. They are prone to inexperience. So, by raising the driving age, you are taking the experience they could get at age 16 and moving it to an older age. Causing more death as 18 years old instead of 16 years old.

Yes, many people die. But, by raising the driving age, you are not preventing death. you are only delaying when they die. And you might also say that peoples brains are more developed at age 18, but a human brain is actually NOT developed at age 18. It IS developed at age 21. So if you wanted to raise it to 21, when your brain is fully developed, you could. With that, raising to age 21 would cause countless problems with school education and transportation as adults.

You should not raise the driving age. Raising the driving age is only punishing people that didn't do anything. "People get into more crashes at a young age"

is not always true. And if they raise the driving age for teenagers that are 16 because of that statement, they are punishing people who didn't get into crashes, for others mistakes.
