00:10
hi Stuart I'm doing great I'm about  to finish writing some reports
1
10620
6840
00:20
that's good hey have you watched  the news recently they said that
2
20760
7140
00:30
are not again please every time we talk  about something we have to debate about that
3
30660
6900
00:40
I know I know but this is something  really important Don't You Wanna Know
4
40620
7020
00:50
you know I'm always curious about everything  but we don't think alike that's the thing
5
50820
7500
01:00
I don't care this thing is about  work I am sure you'll be interested
6
60960
6960
01:10
about work
7
70860
960
01:13
um all right tell me then what is it
8
73980
4140
01:21
well they say the minimum wage will be  25 dollars per hour isn't that amazing
9
81060
7860
01:31
you mean 25 bucks an hour for all  kinds of professions is that it
10
91440
7200
01:40
of course I think that's great  finally there will be labor equality
11
100920
7500
01:51
I don't think that's a good idea store  it I don't agree with that it's not fair
12
111120
6840
02:00
what do you mean is not fair it totally is  we will finally earn the same amount of money
13
120960
7920
02:11
and what if I am a doctor and I had to  study harder than other people is that fair
14
131040
7020
02:21
in that case you could get an extra bonus  
15
141000
3240
02:24
according to your career I  think that's a possibility
16
144240
4620
02:31
and what if we're both working in the  same area but I work harder than you
17
151080
6780
02:40
does it mean I deserve the same salary as  you even if I put all my effort on working
18
160800
7260
02:51
now I don't think that's correct the amount of  money we earn must be according to our effort
19
171000
7680
03:01
and the time and money we have invested  in starting a career that's what I think
20
181080
6420
03:10
I disagree but anyway it's like the last  time we talked that crazy thing you said
21
190920
7860
03:20
what was that oh schools should  do away with homework all together
22
200880
7020
03:30
obviously all the homework a student  can make is a totally waste of time
23
210900
7020
03:40
how can you say that homework is the only  thing that can make students learn at home
24
220980
7440
03:50
okay remind me something we started together  at the school I have a question for you
25
230520
7440
04:00
how many times did you really  investigate to do your homework tell me
26
240480
6600
04:10
I did investigate sometimes I  had to search information to
27
250440
7800
04:20
exactly sometimes I'm gonna explain  to you why homework should be banned
28
260820
7680
04:31
homework leaves less time for children  to be children that's the truth
29
271080
6600
04:40
kids need to get outside and play more  often so they can grow and develop
30
280860
6900
04:51
but what is happening homework is  holding them back from this it's terrible
31
291000
7380
05:01
what else oh homework also takes time  away from the Sleep hours for children
32
301080
7200
05:10
which in turn increases the productivity of  their next school day lesson That's crazy dude
33
310920
7860
05:21
okay then you think students in this  case kids should do nothing at home
34
321240
6120
05:30
no no there are some alternatives to  basic homework that could be beneficial
35
330900
7020
05:41
on reading about a topic that needs to  be learned can be a productive assignment
36
341100
6960
05:50
giving the child basic responsibilities such as  
37
350280
3960
05:54
chores is a good way to teach  them without making it a task  
38
354240
4380
06:00
but homework just make children feel stressed  all the time and the benefits are very few
39
360600
7740
06:10
I think I get your point of  view but I don't agree like  
40
370680
4620
06:15
when you said animal testing shouldn't be banned
41
375300
2880
06:20
don't you know animals suffer when  scientists test all those products on them
42
380400
6720
06:30
I didn't say animals should suffer of  course not but animal testing is necessary
43
390660
7680
06:40
it contributes to life-saving  cures and treatments not only that
44
400680
6960
06:50
it's crucial to ensure that vaccines  are safe and you know why is that
45
410700
6180
07:01
because there is no adequate alternative  to testing on living whole body system
46
421080
6720
07:11
animals are appropriate research subjects because  they are similar to human beings in many ways
47
431100
6960
07:21
I am sorry but it has to be said bro  now it doesn't mean they have to suffer
48
441180
6960
07:30
I think we have to find a way a safe way  to do animal testing and treat them well
49
450840
7020
07:40
yeah that sounds great but that will only  happen in your dreams that's also true
50
460740
7320
07:50
animal testing is cruel and inhumane scientists  are able to test vaccines on humans volunteers  
51
470340
8040
08:00
alternative testing methods now exist  that can replace the need for animals
52
480360
6900
08:10
will never agree right like the time you  said social media bring more harm than good
53
490440
7560
08:20
obviously I totally agree with that  although there are important benefits
54
500100
6960
08:30
social media can also provide platforms  for bullying and exclusion unrealistic  
55
510300
5880
08:36
expectations about body image and  sources of popularity normalization  
56
516180
7440
08:43
of risk taking behaviors and can  be detrimental to Mental Health  
57
523620
5640
08:50
oh come on you can't be serious social  media has more benefits than bad things
58
530700
7380
09:00
for example you can make new friends communicate  or connect with old friends and family
59
540300
6780
09:10
also you could help somebody with anything  on a Blog just by stating your opinion
60
550140
7440
09:20
the social media can bring people together that  are interested in the same things as you are
61
560400
7380
09:30
yeah but it has many disadvantages too  it's dangerous and you perfectly know that
62
570360
7320
09:40
thanks to that people think that sexual  education should be mandatory in schools
63
580680
6480
09:50
of course it should be especially if  you have a proper source of information
64
590220
6780
10:00
it makes young students more  aware greatly prevents teen  
65
600180
4380
10:04
pregnancy teaches the importance of consent
66
604560
3480
10:10
yeah but controlling the classes can be very  difficult you haven't thought about that
67
610320
6720
10:20
it can also hurt the religious beliefs of the  students and teachers are not always properly  
68
620340
7800
10:28
trained inadequate education in the subject  can have opposite effects that's the thing
69
628140
9900
10:40
yeah but hey we're supposed  to be working not discussing
70
640680
6720
10:49
we think different and we will never agree  with those topics it's not the first time
71
649800
7140
11:00
I know but it's funny and interesting  to talk about those things
72
660060
6960
11:09
or you maybe because I don't think our  subscribers think like you do a steward
73
669840
7200
11:19
what they also like watching videos  about debates and different opinions
74
679620
6840
11:30
plus they can also comment about these  topics they can give us their point of view
