Bill: Kalistan's Newspaper
Details
Submitted by[?]: Libertarian Party of Kalistan (LPoK)
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: April 2949
Description[?]:
| After perusing through the forums, I noticed that there's an option of changing the name of our nation's newspaper. Seeing as it's the generic "Free and United Country of Kalistan Daily", I think we ought to change it to something with a little bit more flair, but something that is party-neutral in its nature. === The "Free and United Country of Kalistan Daily" will be renamed to the "Kalistani Republic". === |

| Message | We would suggest the Kalistani Republic. We used to participate in the Kalistani newspaper, and in fact some of our earliest resolutions dealt with the Kalistani paper. We also used to run our own Party paper. But then they cancked the forums, and the paper was lost to the ages, and consequently we stopped contributing. We have high hopes for the Paper. What is the link of the current paper? |

| Message | It's on the main nation page of Kalistan, right under the page title. I wasn't really looking into this as an RP aspect; it just looked really dull that our newspaper wasn't named something with a little more creativity. I like the Kalistan Republic. It sounds pretty good. |

| Random fact: "Game mechanics comes first." For example, if a currently-enforced bill sets out one law, then a player cannot claim the government has set out a contradictory law. |
| Random quote: "A democracy that does not allow limits is not a democracy. Just as a limitless freedom is not freedom, but prevarication. Indeed, any theory of freedom worthy of this name is first of all a limit theory. If we extend the unlimited tolerance even to those who are intolerant, if we are not willing to defend a tolerant society against the attacks of the intolerants, then the tolerants will be destroyed and the tolerance with them! Because, I ask to myself and ask you, given a certain system that we call democratic, which is today the best possible system to allow everyone to live freely and to be able to express their own thoughts, how can the same system admit attacks against its integrity? How can a system refuse the principle of the self-preservation? For this reason, to suppress the apologetics of thalerrism, it's for this reason that the exaltation of exegetes, principles, facts or methods of Thallerism and its anti-democratic aims does not constitute a violation of the freedom of manifestation of thought, but, on the contrary, the celebration of that freedom. The protection of the first premise on which a modern democratic system is based. And this premise must be safeguarded also and above all against itself and its abuses." ~ Malik Astori, Leadership of Liberty and Progress (Istalia) |
