| Message | Being a communistic party, obviously I disagree with the return of the corrupt bourgeois owning, and taking businesses away from the proletariat, however, I greatly disagree with the seventh article, which allows for a simple right of mankind to be charged and regulated by bourgeois, who have done nothing but corrupted the economy in their favor. |

| 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). |
