| Message | Then use the force and resources of the state to track down alternative ways to get at such information, either through publicly available sources like tax documents and the like, other individuals who can be persuaded to cooperate with an investigation, or just looking through the person in question's garbage. The state's legal system has plenty of resources and powers to discover and solve crimes without the ability to force people to give documentary evidence against themselves. |

| 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). |
