Bell Ringer

Borrowed from a college professor who opened every class with a question worth debating — no easy outs, no changing the premise. Pick a side, vote, and make your case.

Are people inherently good or inherently evil?

Do differences make the world stronger or weaker as a whole?

Every website free but tracking and selling your data, or every website paid but keeping your data completely private — which internet do you want?

What is the single most important invention or discovery of all time?

Is it better to lead with logic or with intuition and emotion?

Should every citizen be legally required to vote, or is the right to not participate just as important as the right to vote?

Unlimited money but almost no free time, or unlimited free time but only enough money to get by — which life do you pick?

Would you rather be the smartest person in every room you ever enter, or the happiest?

Total surveillance with zero crime, or total privacy with crime exactly as it is today?

Total anarchy or total tyranny — which do you choose?
