Title of the debate: Abolition of basic education - a necessary choice for national resource conservation or self-destruction of the future of all people? Affirmative argument (supporting the abolition of basic education) Viewpoint: 1. National resources are limited, and universal basic education requires huge investment. Abolition of basic education can give priority to the use of limited resources to cultivate top talents, thereby improving the overall competitiveness of the nation. 2. Elite education can more effectively stimulate innovation potential and provide impetus for the country to achieve breakthrough development in science and technology, economy and other fields. 3. After the abolition of universal basic education, educational resources will be more concentrated, which will help to build an elite education system, attract and retain excellent teachers, and improve the quality of education. Opponent argument (oppose the abolition of basic education) Viewpoint: 1. Basic education is the starting point for every citizen to acquire knowledge and cultivate basic skills. The abolition of basic education will lead to a decline in the overall quality of society, affecting the overall national literacy and social stability. 2. Universal education is conducive to social equity, so that all classes have the opportunity to receive education and achieve social mobility. If we only focus on elite education, it will aggravate social stratification and inequality. 3. The long-term development of a country requires universal quality education. Only people with extensive basic knowledge can form a stable and innovative society. Concentrating all resources on a few elites will ignore the potential of the masses and future development possibilities. This debate topic aims to explore the relationship between national resource allocation and educational equity, and how to balance the importance of universal basic education while pursuing high-quality elite education. All parties can have in-depth discussions from multiple angles such as resource allocation, educational equity, social development, and innovation motivation.
