Message | The Freedom Party has been, for 75 years, the party of devolution. We entrust the local governments to do what is right for their people.The only way for a confederacy to function is for the federal government to trust the local governments. |
Date | 04:07:45, January 19, 2006 CET | From | Independent Capitalist Party | To | Debating the Federalism Act IV |
Message | Your old policy was to not devolve civil rights. Apparantly you go more and more extreme the less seats you have and then back to less extreme when you have enough seats. Even in this great confederacy, it's voter deception. |
