Message | Against, "Individuality" is not a value we should promote and sounds like a party political stance. |
Date | 17:13:39, June 20, 2005 CET | From | New Democracy | To | Debating the National Motto Amendment |
Message | Against for the same reasons that the RSDP stated. |
Date | 19:00:00, June 20, 2005 CET | From | Libertarian Alcoholic Par-tay | To | Debating the National Motto Amendment |
Message | Individuality is a noble value. I support. After all, it's not like we should necessarily expect our citizens to be efficient or not, it's their own choice (individuality reflects the fact that people have different ideals and are allowed to have them) |

Message | You could argue that efficiency, liberty and prosperity are all party political stances. Liberty means you like freedom and democracy. (not all parties support that) Prosperity means you support a strong economy and prosperity (Communists do not support that) Individuality is soemthing all political ideologies should support apart from maybe communists. |
