Message | The SIP would likely vote yes to Article 1, however Article 2 leaves room for unsafe conditions. If emergency services were to strike, for any reason, it would be safe to say that things would be.. less than safe for the people of Sekowo. Emergency services should be properly represented by unions, and should be given every available incentive to do their jobs well, and rewarded to that effect as well. We just shudder to think what a full strike of, say, police forces would mean for Sekowo. Riots and looting in the streets would be perfectly fine, as there would be nobody to stop them. Unless perhaps civilians tried to stop them, and then you have civilian mobs trying to quell civil unrest. At best, a bad situation; at worst a disaster. |

Message | OOC: This is actually one of the two reasons why I generally put them all into one, since people tend to say if they'd be willing to vote fro one of them. Of course the other one being when I know none will pass and I don't see the point i making separate bills. |

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). |
