[TDBM] The Deputy is Back - Political Party's Kinda Suck
crisfire
Hello Congress Members
The purpose of this group PM is to alert Congress members that eCanada has a Congress and Ive been working all day clearing the cobwebs away from its hallowed halls and polishing up its oak chairs so that you can rest your plump butt in its seats so that proper debate can occur here
http://ecan.forumotion.com/
If you have an itch to propose something please feel free then feel disappointed because it didnt pass, not by a long shot, then feel free to check this out http://ecan.forumotion.com/t545-the-government-charter-of-ecanada-nov-2014 its the Governments Charter of eCanada and you should become familiar with Section II so that all your great ideas will come to fruition and eCanada can rejoice.
Close to the end of term ill be releasing an article with all the congress activity stats so be warned. Its time to get congress working again with active congress members, we have gone far to long without a kneejerk tax change and that is unacceptable
Yours in Congressional solidarity
Crisfire
Deputy Speaker
P.S. Please dont debate anything here, debate is for the light of day on the eCan forums so that the 5 people remaining in eCanada that are not congress members can avidly keep informed
Right?
Maybe, or at least it is a beginning.
For eCanada's Congress to get fully unfunctional like it was in day's past it needs its Party Presidents to earn their position and become the leaders they get elected to be.
"YOU GET A PARTY AND YOU GET PARTY"
In eRepublik anyone and I mean anyone can start their own party, I did and it failed. The Crimson Order Military Unit decided to form their own political party and immediately shot up to the #3 party, roughly 60ish members if memory serves. While some would count that a success and something to build on it was soon apparent that once we ordered the fax machines for party headquarters we didn't know what to do next, we didnt have a plan, idea's or a platform and so goes the story of most if not all of eCanada's political party's, certainly at the moment.
Can anyone tell me the ideology between say the CPF and the Imperial Party or the MDP and BAL. If there is its certainly not my fault for not noticing its yours, your the problem, you.
Its anyone in a political party from its leadership on down, ok so its me as well but lets pretend its not. You don't tell me in PM's or the media anymore why I should join you, why your the best, what you offer and what you can do for me, you've got skinny and lazy and to be honest, it doesn't look good on you.
My point is that if your sitten stupid in a #6 party or below then stop it or get loud and take out a top 5 party, stand for something. If your sitten lazy in a top 5 party then earn that position. If your in any party and your leadership isn't leading then run for Party President and take that shit over.

Party politics is for fgts!
Clarification? Old fgts that are too weak or lazy to do FA or new fgts that are still nursing on mother's milk and who pee in their pants?
^FYI, that's supposed to be sarcastic witticism.
What that's supposed to be sarcastic? Well I never would have guessed
BAL came about because Democratic Action League and Shaved Beaver wanted the same thing, a top five that didn't have the usual agenda. So far they've kept from calling someone "hippie" or "control freak". There are no long list of rules, common sense reigns. A concensus is usually all it takes to get the ball rolling. Also keeping an eye on new congress peeps is a goal.
Interesting fact: Anaconda has proven to be a very motivated leader. He has gained my respect and trust.
The difference between CPF and MDP that I see is that CPF tends to look for consensus where MDP prefers strong leaders who rule with an authoritarian swagger. I tend to prefer the MDP way, even if I don't quite act that way 😛
Since the old days the CPF has stood for (while I've been a part of it) has started from our tenets, Funky and a bit of old player charm. (Once you saw the likes of Plugson in it, you gave it a shot or if Rylde and co in MDP didn't suit you, you came over) Admittedly, there has been a slack from the leaders, members and congress throughout the dictatorship and the moose are starting to move a little bit after a long dormant period, From what I've seen, the main difference comes between MDP and CPF (as it had for a long time) where here in the CPF, you don't necessarily have the gold buyers that can swing battles, but the guys on the sidelines working foreign affairs, contributing in the other modules or helping supply battles that Canada is always in. MDP usually provides the firepower among other things. Don't get me wrong both parties have players that do the opposite or all mentioned, just for quite a while that has been one defining difference.
Another difference, leadership. In the CPF you have one kind of leadership (Smoke, Auk, Dozzer, Aries, ED etc) v.s another kind in MDP (IBB, Rylde, Mugs, crisfire),. (Both good in their ways)
From what I've seen, players flock to activity -> leadership. The parties go about their business in different ways so the types of players that join each one is sort of defined with obvious exceptions.
For a long time, it has always been CPF and MDP leading Canada, but there have been movements and adjustments and now we see a few parties with activity. Canada's new democracy is young, people are just re-awakening their inner mud slinger, I don't doubt we'll see some soon, perhaps with new faces or with the 'new' parties involved. Let there be mud.
While I think there were more noticeable differences between the parties in the past, you're right in how they are now largely indistinguishable. The only difference now would be simply leadership style which is a sad fact about the state of eRepublik and eCanada.
There's little difference between the parties because there's little left to both the political and economic modules. Fiscal and monetary policy used to be an import factor in running a country. There were bond, military funding, and energy infrastructure programs. Then the game changed and the last one became unnecessary, the first unnecessary and untenable, and the middle one just unsustainable. Even free trade isn't an issue anymore with the global currency and cheap moving tickets, high import taxes or not. Military strategy isn't really a defining factor anymore either.
I actually think that we're seeing much the same in real life. We agree on the major things - nobody's going to dismantle our welfare state nor really that much less tough on crime. We've reached a general consensus on what's good, what's bad, what's necessary and even what we can afford. It's not necessarily a bad thing. It's just boring and it means that people stop paying attention.
In my opinion we shouldn't be taking a step backwards into party politics but try to move into a system beyond party politics. But then again I've been party less for half the time I've been playing this shitty game.
