| Message | To better represent the people, shouldn't only (active) parties that hold seats hold some cabinet position, though most likely this would mean finding a position where the party has common ground with the president's party. Parties like the RSFA, have no representation and hold the second highest ammounts of seats, while the Stoic party holds none yet would have a cabinet position. Other parties could find cabinet positions where their ideaology would not be at odds with the current administration. OOC: Also I have no idea what I am doing and don't want to screw anything up. |

| Message | I'm not including the RSFA because of their socialist agenda. This current cabinet will work perfectly, as all all parties agree economically, and excluding the Cavalier's slight social conservative factions, we a Social Liberals. OCC This will be an active cabinet, the Neo-Libertarians have being showing up for National Directory votes more. And as the finance minister, all you have to do is balance the budget, if they don't have a feature to help you with that, I'm sure you can do it with a calculator. Just go to the Zardugal page, view cabinet, view executive powers page, scroll down to the finance minister, and set the income tax and spending budget, then propose them. This cabinet would like to see massive cuts in everything but defense, education and the police force. |

| Message | OOC The finance position is cake. Like Liberty said, just pull out a calculator! If you foul up, we'll be there to ridicule you. Not really. |
