I see it as defeating the purpose of what I view as the freedom of choice to want one's daughter to conform to her biological sex. Why? Because I was raised as male and have come out as transgender on NSG back in early July.

Congrats.

I am of the belief that I don't really care about what gender you are, as long as you can pull your weight as an individual. Honestly, the only thing that somewhat annoys me is the pronounce issue, but I am okay with using gender neutral pronouns like "they" (as is historical).

For me, it's just use the female ones. The non-binary are a bit trickier however.

You now, this raised an interesting point. I think that we have seen a drastically disorganized political system as of late.

I was thinking we could either create a subdivision of the IA office or a separate entity called the Election Commission that a candidate would have to file with, they would administer the elections, and validate winners and losers. It works in real life and I think it would do well.

Thoughts?

Election Commission Proposal:

The Election Commission shall be made up of three appointed nations, one appointed by the sitting President, one appointed by the sitting Chairman, and one appointed by the sitting Manager of Internal Affairs.

The Commission shall be responsible for:

- Organizing elections

- Keeping records of candidates and results

- Resolving issues or conflicts

- Accepting or denying (must be unanimous with explanation if denied) candidates' filings. This can be repealed by the Board or House.

- All issues or resolution and acceptances/denials must be unanimous.

Absolutely not. The creation of an appointed commission with the power to accept or deny candidates is undemocratic and serves only to expand the beurocracy.

It seems to me that the keeping of dates, results, and the organization of debates and other events ought to be handled by the Interior Minister.

I agree... This just seems like it would create a larger bureaucracy and make things more complicated than they should be.

You mean the Manager of Internal Affairs.

I think that it is imperative that we create an election authority to maintain civility and legitimacy in our elections. The purpose of the members being appointed from different officials prevents them from being two homogeneous in political opinion and loyalty. The purpose of unanimity and explanations is to ensure that they have reason to deny, not just out of personal opinion. There needs to be a way to administrate the elections, and this is how it is done in real life, is it undemocratic there? If you meet the requirements, you are put on the ballot. Same with our Commission. However, they must be appointed because if they were elected, who would administer their election? A commission of some sort?

Sounds awfully bureaucratic. But I'm not completely opposed.

We should revise the mistake in the existing law before we do anything however.

It's just an idea. Valid points, but we need some form of reform other than just saying it randomly on the cacophonous RMB.

I meant to say Manager of Internal Affairs, sorry.

I would indeed say that many election commissions and systems are undemocratic. I would further say that such a system is unnecessary in a region of this size.

If a candidate is not civil or legitimate, he/she will not be elected. It's as simple as that. If a citizen wishes to run, then they ought to have that right under the law.

That could easily be resolved by giving the Interior Manager the responsibility to keep track of candidates, but not to accept or deny them.

Who has been keeping track of Libertatem's election results and such so far?

There is no existing record of election results. There is a factbook that contains all of the sitting Board members, but not their electoral history.

Board elections are supposed to begin on the 20th and finish by the end of the month. Are there any citizens that plan on challenging an incumbent?

They will be done by the 27th. Presidentials start then.

There is, however, the poll records, which record the results of every election done on, which is all but one of them since 2013.

Beautiful smackdown of "anarcho"-communism/syndicalism/derpism by Adam Kokesh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgUZqNHGTwA

The New United States, Reaganomic Nws

An "anarcho"-communist has got all the sound reasoning of a child insisting he's a helicopter.

The New United States, Rateria, Austex

What kind of fool actually believes that capitalism is truly hierarchical? Supply and demand is an economic force that dictates the actions of the market, not any single entity, worker or business. The way market forces are negotiated means that two parties seeking cooperation have relatively equal weight. Labour cannot live without business, and business cannot live without labour. Yet the left insists on perpetuating a victim culture that sees workers as helpless, powerless brutes. Here's a hint: if you sign a contract, you hold economic power! Labour, in a free market, would be just as powerful as business.

AICE. I like the rigor of IB but not the rigid class structure. Cambridge (at least at my school) is every bit as challenging, but more personalized.

For instance, I decided to take AICE psychology instead of Chemistry, Physics, or Biology (all of which were choices).

I never heard of AICE but it does sound a lot better. IB is great for me where I live as it's like to only private schooling system that's bilingual while all the others are French-only since, y'know, Quebec.

AICE is a program run by the University of Cambridge in other countries (I live in Florida in the US). Essentially, we take British courses and exams (which are very rigorous for the US).

Hey guys, the puppet above is a very exceptional man.

He is very experienced with his knowledge of the Law and of the functions of a court (see CFN Judicial Branch). I hope you all will welcome him.

I'm glad you asked. I've been doing about 4 hours a week for my internship, and have done about 18 this week because my MP is doing community outreach work. He's very much of a so-called 'one-nation' Conservative, so he's on the authoritarian side on social issues and moderate on economic issues, but I've made sure to keep libertarian ideas in the office. All the Conservatives working at the office - including the interns - support a minimum wage, for example, so I've made it my mission to disprove the bad thinking behind that idea. They were shocked when I won a bet against an intern about whether the Scandinavian countries have legally mandated minimum wages. (They don't.)

So, I'm working slowly but surely towards changing minds.
