Bill: Resolution on the Leadership of the Union of Macon
Details
Submitted by[?]: Christian Democratic Alternative
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill is a resolution. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: September 2370
Description[?]:
| Recently different parties in the Continental Congress of Macon have stated their concerns of an exclusively socialist leadership as they fear the socialists will use their position to further their own cause rather than establishing peace in Macon, which would mean that they use their wish for peace as a cover-up. This resolution therefore asks the Hutori government to convey the message to the Congress and to the world that the leadership should also include centrist and right-wing/conservative parties, the sovereignty of member states should be respected and that a failure to do so will result in serious consequences. |

| Message | The united forces of decay support this bill. We are not against the Union as an institution, but against a leadership by left-wing parties. The Union itself gives us the possibility to spread our influence over Macon's people and helps us to lead more folks to worship of the dark lords of Hutori. |

| Message | Our sovereignty does not remain intact unless we withdraw from the Union. |

| Message | What you fascists seem incapable of comprehending is that you are a continental MINORITY! Believe me, I share your angst, minorities can do nothing; but, as the Earl of Derby so elloquently said, that is their purpose. Opposition is what makes a government. Free speech can never be broken, so what is your fear? Also, there is no mechanism by which the Union can force you to pass anything. HAVE YOU REALISED THIS YET??? Apparently not, for if you had, you would have given up on this rediculous quest for self-obliteration ages ago and moved on to restoring slavery. |

| Message | What the New Democratic Party seems incapable of comprehending is that the united forces of decay don't consider themselves as fascists and therefore don't want to be characterized as such. I |

| Message | I'd direct all parties wishing to address this issue reasonably to the Congress itself. You will hopefully understand our methods more clearly, and be less motivated to irrational and knee-jerk reactions such as this one. |

| Message | "Free speech can't be broken", says the infallible leader of the NDP. The people in the German Weimar Republic thought the same. It took only one electoral victory for Hitler to mute all opposition. Plenty of other people have remarked that democracy is a dictatorship of the majority and the form of government most closely related to democracy is mob rule. Isn't the whole idea of Union not that sovereign states form a new organisation? If Hutori is still sovereign, doesn't His Most Royal and Serene Majesty's Parliament have the right to withdraw from any treaty it is a party in? You must now answer this. If the answer is no, then the Macon Union has turned into a dictatorship, as state rights are clearly not respected. |

| Message | I would make the observation to the Rt Hon. Gentleman that the President of the Macon Union cannot go on a spate of ethnic cleansing, nor can they force a member state into anything. So, to quote the Rt Hon. Gentleman, he makes an invalid point. |
| Date | 14:45:55, March 07, 2007 CET | From | Christian Democratic Alternative | To | Debating the Resolution on the Leadership of the Union of Macon |
| Message | No German could have guessed at Hitler's election, that Hitler was going to butcher their Jewish countrymen. Hitler got to power with the old catchphrase "Vote for me and I'll solve all your problems". So my point is most certainly valid. |

| Message | By the way, you haven't answered the single, most important question: Is Hutori sovereign or not? |
| Date | 16:26:25, March 07, 2007 CET | From | Conservative-Libertarian Party (UM) | To | Debating the Resolution on the Leadership of the Union of Macon |
| Message | Of course Hutori isn't sovereign when it is involved in a union that forces rules upon it. |

| Message | RIR: I want the NDP to answer this question. I want to know where his true loyalties lie. I'm sure you're a true patriot, but I'm not sure about the NDP. |
