We must quash the Octopus that Writhes and Threatens to Consume our Freedoms like some Rancorous Abomination.

FromRevolutionary Constit'nal United Front
ToDebating the Smaller Government Initiative
MessageIt is you, oh our poor misguided socialist brethren, who have no respect for the people of Jelbania. If you had any respect for the intelligence, righteousness and good-nature of Jelbania's people, you would not support a big government that controls what they say and do. You would trust the people to do what they feel is right rather than go up on your pulpit tell them what they can and can't do. The whole trouble with you socialists is that you have no respect for the people. You just think you know better than the people. You see them as helpless children. There is no respect there. Only vainglorious delusions of supremacy. And that is the seed of tyranny and dictatorship.

MessageWe'll abstain.

If passed, we'll restore the previous bill

Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI).

Random quote: "I am a conservative to preserve all that is good in our constitution, a radical to remove all that is bad. I seek to preserve property and to respect order, and I equally decry the appeal to the passions of the many or the prejudices of the few." - Benjamin Disraeli
