Region: Libertatem
That is actually a really good observation
that's debatable
Congratulations to President [nation=short]Miencraft[/nation] for having the smallest welfare state in Libertatem!
ohh.. you are a third of my population.. small helpless nation!
My last nation haf almost 10 times your nations population.
I have 4 million over you currently.
HALLO!
*Shrugs*
I'm fine with it.
I can't wait to someday get citizenship back...
Just finished compiling data for US gross private product (GDP - government spending) from 1900 to 2014. http://www.nationstates.net/nation=pevvania/detail=factbook/id=312038
The position of benevolent dictator has already been filled by Liberosia.

You should move a puppet here.
By the way, was Funky elected?
This is true
This might seem silly, but I was thinking maybe in our Wiki pages/factbooks/whatever on previous presidencies we could have a Wikipedia-style portrait of the President at the top of the article. Instead of using real pictures of the presidents, we could make our own.
Here's what I've got for my article so far: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/6c/Matthew_Perry_as_Chandler_Bing.jpg
It's hard to deal with two accounts for me..
A matter of Forgetfulness and complication of simple tasks.
I moved one here but it got CTE'd because I neglected it. I'll resurrect it tonight I guess.
He got the seat by default.
You two, read the map factbook and it'll tell you all about it.
Hooray!
Also, here's a WA proposal to "Repeal "Condemn North Korea"":
"North Korea is a dictatorship with very little rights for its citizens."
seeking any questions or debate regarding BRA.
CUTE! *clings to*
For the first time since its formation, the RLP has been reduced to a single seat on the Board. However, it maintains a majority as ACOP Boardsmen Conservative Idealism and Funkytopia are caucusing with the RLP.
If there are honestly no issues, and I know someone has one somewhere, then this ought to be voted on. But again, I'm going to stress that a hearty debate would be ideal before voting procedures. Sorry if i missed one this weekend, but currently i am here to explain, compromise on, or stubbornly defend any point of this amendment at this time.
Cut out Section II. I think that you should also affirm that deputies are still members of the House. Apart from that, it has my approval.
It was a Stalinist election due to the fact that there were no challengers.
I'll also approve the amendment with Pev's changes in place.
I concur that an article reaffirming deputies' position in the house would be beneficial, and will work that in.
Regarding section II, It is my firm belief that this would be a needed and acceptable check on executive authority. The president still retains the authority to make the choice, his decision must simply be reaffirmed by consent of the board.
I will concede this point if enough voters view this as an overreach of the legislator then it will be removed in order to address the deputy issue. I would warn that a failure to check this now could lead to a more proactive use of the impeachment power and ultimately greater regional instability. The precedent has already been set by the impeachment of GID and such actions will only become more prevalent with out more safe checks in the system.
Oh boy. Let's not NKC...
You two do color-coordinate well!
...Indeed.
ooohh.. *tries not to cling to* We can't risk baby nations happening..
Yes that is true. We can't let that happen can we, bae?
Going to throw this out there. How many feel that section two would be better off trashed?
I do. I don't know much about the customs of the law in this region, but I agree with the Libertatem General Pevvania.
I am hungry..
*Grabs and stares at*
Whatever would you like to eat Madame?
*Blinks at and stares at Jambion again*
...Okay then.
I can't wait for October 27th/28th
Zombies! Zombies! Zombies!
Is that when it happens? * Will need to know so vacation time can be planned*
You won't be too sad if that nation suddenly vanishes and cutest Korea grows slightly larger right?
I'll get my specifically anti-Zombie guns out of my gun room.
Not at all.

Whatever happened to the Libertatem wikia idea?
Isn't Obamacare great?
Really, America will always be spending more for healthcare, simply because it's a large country and you can't account for everyone.
The lack of interest in the idea is reflective of how many people would actually use a Libertatem wiki.
I sleepy now!
*Grabs and runs away with*
Truth.
Apparently there is a similar lack of interest in Board transparency and Lack's amendment. Grrreat.
I understand that the legislature can often serve the executive branch better when allow advice and consent over appointees. However, for the particular case of Libertatem, I get the sense that it would just result in delaying confirmation of managers at a time when we need all the help we can get.
Section 2 should be scrapped from the current BRA draft.
Can I do one anyway?
It's always laws and politics with you people. Zzzz...
Nobody's going to stop you, but personally I wouldn't put it into the WFE unless it gets a lot of usage.
Well, we've kinda gone over these two issues several times.
Mr. Chair, can't we just call a vote on the Board voting log? If you like, I can telegram Amarican, RWN, and Ankha... Hopefully, I can pester them into voting on the issue.
Very well.
There is a request to establish Board precedent such that each Chairman is expected to keep a public log of votes (for example, a factbook) made by all Board members during their term so that people know how their elected officials voted (you know, for posterity). Shall we make it so?
Voting starts now. I say AYE.
Does anyone have a list of Presidents?
I did some digging through the history link for the region and got all but the first and third presidents
Well, who've you got so far?
I think I might remember the ones you seek, but I'm not quite sure.
Is there any reason why The Black Riders use our region as a puppet storage?
All but the first and third.
1 ?
2 Lone Star
3 ?
4 Snabagag
5 Pevvania
6 Humpheria
7 Miencraft
AYE
Aye. tho i'm not technically a citizen until the 10th.
Technically, you're not technically a citizen until you apply after becoming eligible.
Ah, not who I was remembering then.
No matter. A quick trip to the internet archives reveals...
absolutely nothing.
I remember we used to have a list of all the presidents off-site somewhere, but I do believe that list has been lost long ago. I think you could ask Pev about it.
I already applied I will activate the 10th according to Muh Roads telegram
You forgot the great Barack Hussein Obama!
Oy vey....
Then take this as an early welcome to the halls of citizenship.
Thank you Mr. President
Yep.
Oh...oh..oh... Obama??
The mods killed my puppet storage region... Oh well, at least now I don't have to keep a puppet there each update.
Sounds like you had an orgasm while reciting the name of a god, I'm used to it.
We made a secret imperialistic pact with them against the commies.
I suspect Michelle is a very UN happy woman.
She is very unhappy... the whole deal with the U.S. involvement with ISIL was over a dispute of her not giving me a funky munch.
libertatem.wikia.com
All government officials have been added. I will make more on requests.

Was the background behind the "UN" part. Terrible joke I know.
*lattesalute* my friend.
Hey that's pretty cool Jambion. Great job.
Thanks!
Nicely done!
Jamy good job.
Tundrania was our first Delegate
Who was the third?
Tundrania is counted as the first and third President. His first term lasted 27 days, and then President Lone Star served for 2 days, and then Tundrania became President a second time for 14 days.
Good job, Jambion!
I would advise adding to the page of each president, including mine, that we were not presidents then as the role didn't exist. Everyone knew us simply as "The Delegate" and that is worth noting.
Within 24 hours I will be drafting a voting reform amendment to make voting less of a better then 2 evils system.
Here is a video to explain it better.

Good point, but the Fifth Amendment retroactively renamed the delegate the President.
I like your attitude, but such a voting system would be completely unnecessary at this point in time. When I presided over electoral reform, I briefly considered alternatives to first-past-the-post. But adopting anything else would be frivolous right now.
Nearly all elections are two-candidate races because of our small size, and our parties system is not very strong. So I see no need for such a reform.
I see your point pev. I will put this in a file for later then. :)
Cool. I'm not opposed to such a system, and we may need one in the future, but right now I think we're too small for it.
[B]Bonjour, Comrades[/B] ^_^
Welcome, Zenny!
*waves* Hi Pev :) Lovely to see you again. Been a long time since I've been here!
Great to have you back.
Morning Putin *lattesalute*
Hello all. What's happening?
Change... Hope...
I won't even comment on your nation. Not touching that with a 20 foot pole x)
Yeah he promised hope and the change came when it changed from hope to hell.
Oh but my administration believes that more people in society should be touching others with their poles, it should be embraced.
I was speaking of hope for myself, I was elected twice so it went from hope to heaven.
Real-Life politics are too divisive and dull for my taste ^_^ Ruins so many good potential NS relationships.
As long as you voted for me, I agree with you. *puts a Obama Bumpersticker on your back*
You're far too conservative and capitalist for my RL tastes x)
Now look here... I am about as conservative and capitalist as Ellen DeGeneres is straight... We are on the same side here. Have hope.
Question: what are your thoughts on UKIP?
If you wanna be my liberal, you gotta get with my friends. The UKIP does not wanna get with my friends, therefor they are not my liberals. And uhhh baby got back... I'm chillin' up in the white hizzy with Biggie and Tupac.
That post gave me cancer
