| Message | OOC : this is not what is needed at all. If we can introduce 20 Bills a year it takes so much out of the game. Everyone can propose everything rather than proposing Bills that we actually believe in and means we have a list of priorities. Plus ive always said to make Hutori interesting first, and debate should be more important than the actual passing of laws themselves. This Bill would make Hutori simply another boring nation and the amount of laws would be ridiculous with what? 7 parties at a rate of 20 a year? |

| Message | OOC: This nation needs the legislation. It is very easy for you to point out this when your in the majority. However, if you truly want to be representative of the people, you would vote for this. As you can get all your "priorities" in place. We as parties are not going to hit a home run every time we make a bill, and instead well just argue it into oblivion, and then nothing will get passed. This becomes a safety net in case we want to pass any sort of legislation. We should not bound by silly rules if we want to change our Kingdom. |

| Message | Can anyone come to a number bigger than 6? Because six is just downright restrictive. |

| Message | OOC : im putting Hutori first, because i want the game to be enjoyable and not just because im the biggest party so i get the most laws passed - thats not fun really. It means you actually have to put a bit of thought into your Bills and make ones that have a chance of passing and it makes it more realistic. The reasons you suggested ULF woul just turn us into a boring old nation like half the others. |
