What a Joy!!! Congrats!
Wow, that sounded British.
That moment when you read "That sounded British" in a generic British accent.

Except you're an anarchist and TTA is a statist
Congrats, TTA.
No they aren't.
these kids today say the darndest things
I just noticed.
Democratic-Republican Party : DRP
DEmocratic-Republican Party : DERP
That's a thing.
I'm just sitting in my Conservative corner with Humpy.
Quite sir. I sound bloody authentic now.
But I'm Irish.
Ghfhfhghfhgg
I started reading that in an Irish accent (the accent of a guy I know to be exact).
And then I read the part where it says "But I'm Irish", and then I felt like I was magic.
How do I even do this.
Indeed.
Okay then.
... I'm not statist. I'm just leftist economically.
Thank you.
Marriage Equality.
.....Dang you.
Yeah, finally someone in the government that gets it!
I also have an announcement. After switching parties about 140000 times, I have decided to join the DRP, and yes, this is my final choice.
Congrats TTA you deserve a government position and I'm glad that you're finally getting your chance. Good luck.
Why their gayness annoys you? Or because god say it's wrong? Nice use of "homo" in the derogatory nature also, I'm sure Hallo and any other gay person in this region really appreciates that.
Okay, TTA, here's the thing. "Leftist economically" requires State action. You're for a lot of State run programs and interventions in the economy. State. Statism. S-t-a-t-ism. State
I swear you come just to annoy Me...
I like the Government. I was trying to point out hypocrisy.
.... The First Active DRP member besides me!
Heheheheheh
I started a party but I can live with the DRP. It sounds fine.

You wanna join too?
*pops open champagne* *Cork takes out a window and Einsiev's eye*
....Dat my window bro.
*wraps a flag around Einsiev's wound to stop the bleeding*
Oh, don't worry, it's a template, I've got plenty. Also it's not an actual flag yet, just lines on a cloth.
What
On second thought, I probably should have sent someone to get the cork out of there first.
Huh.
Ah, it'll be fine. We'll just use 'Tatem magic to fix everything.
but you said you weren't a statist... I thought you were different than the others...
*falls to the ground and draws a 9mm* You dumbass! I told you not to point that at me!
Nah.
Nope, no voluntary association here
I like: Government helping people who really need help and are actively trying to improve their situation.
I like: Government placing reasonable regulations on products and CO2 emissions
I like: Small businesses
I dislike: Government bailing out companies
I dislike: Companies paying for Presidential Elections
I dislike: Companies and employers being forced to do something against their rights or beliefs.
I'm NOT EITHER.
I'm..... Moderate.
I understand the pros of government and cons of government.
Huh?
Believe me, that's a lot more economically conservative than you give yourself credit for. Regardless, it's quite trusting of the state.
Socialistic Statist
Fascist
Yeah that's fine
Great!
Ehhh....
Good for you. Does that apply to having their property expropriated?
Amen.
Conservatism amen.
I have a question for TTA concerning religion.
You kind of have to be one or the other. There really isn't a middle ground between a statist and an anarchist.
I will not speak.
Hmm okay.
A centrist. The only political belief where you can be called Fascist and Socialist. Hahaha.
Government repossession is terrible.
Oh yes?
There really is. I'm a minarchist.
Yes there is.
I dislike HUGE government but I understand the need for a government.
It's about Mormonism, so you don't really need to, Einsiev.
Can we not?
Actually socialism and fascism are born from the same movement and are quite similar when you take out the Marxian definitions of the two (even moreso when you see how they are used in today's context).
Centrists employ both socialism and fascism.
No hate here for minarchism, but it still requires the presence of a state regardless of how miniscule and supposedly restrained it might be
Actually you probably should just to stay on the safe side.
what I saw
What I read
Yes?
It's fine.
Then I'm not a centrist. I hate Fascism.
It's fine.
....Wow.
Right, but under ideal circumstances said state is kept in check by unbelievably strict restrictions, ones that I would imagine are much more impossible to bypass than the absoluteness of the Constitution.
For proper terms I am a
Left Libertarian Leaning Social Democratic Centrist.
Pardon me...when I say fascism, I mean it's economic system: corporatism/corporativism and its various forms. Not racism.
There's still time to move to International Liberty Alliance and get a Cabinet position under President Muh.
So, about the whole thing where Mormons Baptize historical figures posthumously, Is that something you are all on board with, or is that crazy sounding to you too?
To those of you who don't know, some Mormons like to baptize dead people into Mormonism, such as the Pope, Hitler, Anne Frank and Joan of Ark.
When I see Fascism, I see a non racist Corporatist nationalistic government. I still don't agree with it.
I recognize the ideals of minarchism, and am only trying to point out that there is still a state in the equation
True, but at least it's infinitesimal. Probably the best we can end up doing, really.
I'm not quite sure on anarchy, really, a bit divided there.
The government is a territorial monopoly on law and the legal use of physical force. What could possibly go wrong.
...Oh.
I am actually 0 percent fascist.
Before saying anything I am of the LDS sector of Mormonism not the fake "Fundamentalist" side....
We do not personally/purposely seek out famous people to baptize. I actually think baptizing famous people is against doctrine like baptizing a Jew is.
Here are my Economic policy leanings.
100%-Social Democracy
83%- Democratic Socialism
75%-Anarchism
67%-Marxism
42%-American Liberitarianism
33%-Totalitarianism
25%-Republicanism
8%- Neoliberalism
0%- FascismÂ
If I were a gambling man I would bet you loath progressivism. Naturally you would like to see the opposite unfold in a society. So if we follow the path directly opposite to progressives you end up in a society based on voluntary exchange.
Huh.
You should start gambling.
Yay Progressivism!
The Regulatory State was created by a partnership between Big Business and the State in order to squeeze the small businesses. Regulations and corporatist legislation (like Obamacare) create an artificial barrier to entry for entrepreneurs. This gives larger corporations a competitive edge and allows them to increase their relative profits.
Behind every State program is usually a large interest or corporation vying for State regulation to preserve its market share. In fact, the free, unregulated market is really all that can reduce a large corporation's power.
Hah, that's still ironic though. I mean, calling a leftist a fascist; that's something you don't see every day.
My beliefs.
Minarchistic Conservatism: 100%
They aren't ideally, but their system inevitably facilitates it.
I take everything back
Yay! The Anarchists don't like me.
I can check that off my political bucket list.
I would think that most people could
BREAKING NEWS: A car has exploded in Northern Zuchštejn killing 2 civilians and injuring 21. A man seen running from the scene was apparently carrying what looked to be a detonator for explosives. Police pursued but lost the man in the crowd as they were fleeing. More as this story develops.
Keynes would be proud.
Its good for the window making sector
Dat moment you check for real news on this.
You mean to say that Nationstates has nothing to do with reality?
My entire life is a lie.
AND healthcare! Oh.. and the cleaners for all that blood.
What an economic genius.. (sarcasm)

On the anarchist/minarchist debate:
Anarchists believe that the rational actor will supremely take over - when this is not true. When a mob forms, it's participants are anything but rational. Go to any store on Black Friday and see how rational the actors behave. True, on some level this also happens in a government, but a government entity that is restrained knows what its priorities are and speaks for as many as possible. To that affect, governments are made the most accountable when they cover the most people - you don't want to enact any laws that will destabilize society (as it is a public demand). Whereas a private corporation or whatever, who wants to make as much money as possible, and don't worry if a few people get crushed by the crowd or the competition. After all, doesn't it benefit you when there are darwinistic laws operating to weed out some of the weak, those who are being nuisances (the homeless), and etc?
Another problem I have with anarcho-capitalism is that it cannot deal properly with what is called "the tradegy of the commons" without it devolving into an entity like the government or worse. For example, a law enforcement firm could protect a neighborhood, but even if that neighborhood is closed off, it still has to deal with people on the outside who benefit from their law enforcement. So what does a firm do? It draws up a quasi "social contract" that gives it the right to "tax" people who benefit from their services, regardless if they signed up to benefit from said service or not. Tada, the firm is now a government in all but name. This extends further - to the military and etc.
Ahhhh. Back, sorry I left.
From Einsiev:
"Copy and paste this to the RMB please.
This was a temporary move. I'll be back soon."
Nevermind.
Nevermind Humpy.
