| Message | Absolutely not. Given Kanjor's enormous population, it is inefficient and ridiculous to believe that there is any need for the central government to take any part in policing other than monitoring interstate crime. Local laws & local crimes require local jurisdictions. As one can clearly see from the polls (http://classic.particracy.net/generatepoll.php?nation=28®ion=0&leg1party=0&leg1second=0&leg1voted=0&leg2party=0&leg2second=0&leg2voted=0&inquiry=opinion&ideology=CEN&election=party) take that Kanjoriens much prefer the power of local governments to those of the centralized one. To pass this bill is to go against the wishes of the Kanjorien people. To pass this bill is nothing more than an act of dictatorship. |
