Housing Voucher Program: Individuals issued with a housing voucher is responsible for finding a suitable unit on the private market to rent. A subsidy is paid to the landlord directly by the state on behalf of the voucher recipient. The landlord has the power to approve/deny any prospective tenants and price their own rental property. The value of the subsidy is approximately what is needed to rent a moderately-priced dwelling unit in the local housing market. Voucher recipients must pay the difference between the actual rent charged by the landlord and the amount subsidized by the program. However, they are not permitted to spend more than 30% of their gross income on rent and utilities combined.

Public housing: A government housing program that allows individuals to live in a government owned and operated unit at a vastly discounted rate, or in some cases for free.

Since the Rwandan genocide in 1994, the country has adopted a model of "consensual democracy" under the guidance of the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), the party that won the Rwandan civil war. Although this governance model was initially adopted to facilitate ethnic reconciliation and economic growth after the genocide, it has allowed the RPF to dictate terms to other political parties and dominate executive, legislative and judicial power. Despite most independent organizations criticizing the RPF and its current leader, Paul Kagame (in power since 2000) for suppressing opposition parties and engaging in electoral fraud, the country has had success in developing its economy and other sectors such as education and healthcare.

The 6B4T radical feminist movement has recently been gaining popularity across East Asia (e.g., Japan, South Korea, Mainland China). “6B” stands for “no dating men, no marrying men, no sex with men, no bearing children, no buying products from misogynistic brands, support other single women.” And “4T” stands for “reject beauty standards, reject fandom (e.g., K-Pop boy groups), reject Otaku culture (i.e., misogynistic anime, manga, computer games), reject religion.” Those who participate in the movement strive to abide by the 6B4T principles in their lives and support each other through communities like online forums. For the purpose of this debate, assume the average East Asian feminist is urban, well-educated, and middle to upper middle class.

Scientists have discovered the formula for a 'no-sleep pill.' This pill allows humans to live healthfully without the need to ever sleep. The pill only needs to be taken once in a life time and its effects are permanent and irreversible. After taking the pill, individuals will never feel sleepiness, and thus while they could still fall asleep if they really try, this would be a difficult and unsatisfactory experience.
