| Message | There's more than one way to read a poll. ;) Please note that the five available options on this issue appear to rather neatly fall along a spectrum, from the most hands-off to the most intrusive. Not all issues are like that. But on this one ... http://classic.particracy.net/viewnews.php?newsid=567228&nation=4 35,20% wanted no regulations whatsoever. 64,80% wanted at least a little bit of regulation (the current law); some of whom wanted starker regulation yet. ;) As for the issue itself, KPJP are mildly against the proposal, but only mildly. We don't particularly care about this issue, at least between the two options available here; in stark contrast to two other bills up for vote at this time http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=525169 http://classic.particracy.net/viewbill.php?billid=525276 about which we feel very strongly indeed. If 525169 passes, we'll certainly be dismayed. If 525276 passes, we'll be utterly devastated. :( If this one passes, no problem. :) |
