Seth, thank you for taking the time to speak to us today.

It's a nuanced question, but what are your thoughts on the Trans-Pacific Partnership ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Pacific_Partnership )?

Also, what are your thoughts on LGBT members in the Armed Forces?

And if you can, do you have any immediate ideas on how to improve your district that your opponents have not spoken about, something to differentiate you from the others?

At one point I remember reading about an American tank officer who was training Iraqi tank crews. The American gave the tank crews manuals on how to operate the tanks, and a few days later came back to find that the Iraqi tank officers had confiscated all the manuals because knowing how to drive the tanks and operate them were the only things that separated them from the rest of the crew and the officers wanted to retain the perks, honor, and higher pay of being officers. Is this something that happens in Syria's military as well, and/or the rest of the Middle East?

So, assume the Fig for Psychonauts 2 brings in X dollars, and costs X-$Y dollars. What happens to the remainder of X? Is it kept by the company? Is it given back? If it's kept, then it could be used on other projects, yes? And if it wasn't enough money to make the game then where are you going to go to raise more funding? Psychonauts 2 on Fig Round 2: The Second Funding?

How would you have even come back against that argument?

I keep thinking there's this prevaling thought process that 'if more homeless people would just die, they wouldn't be homeless and we wouldn't have to deal with them!' somewhere in the machine that keeps all this running. People leaning towards the easiest option, as it were, no matter how morally reprehensible it is.
