Re: [Public politics]Presidential Elections

by **Theneka** 2010-08-31, 21:45

The only reason why I would say Habraka isn't at least as suited as me is because of one simple thing, that he doesn't even hide. He's treasure holder (or something like that) of the eUSA (= MoF?) and thus him being president would be something that would be ilegal in evry democracy, as it would be something that's called in dutch belangenvermenging, but I have no idea how to translate it xD

by **MaryamQ** 2010-09-01, 00:45

Google translates that as conflict of interest. I am not a Dutch speaker, but I would guess that is pretty close to your meaning.

The party of the BfB has decided to sponsor Theneka for the next presidential elections. I myself could not choose between the two candidates and I let the active party members make the choice.

Don't vote Theneka, he will only make higher taxes and destroy the economy with his stupid communism. Look how it didn't worked out for Russia, Cuba, ...
Only capitalism can rescue our economy.

That's just a ignorant comment FreddeLeGrand.
This sort of comments only makes your look foolish.
capitalism is what got us in this economic mess to start with.
No, I am not saying that communism is the solution, but it isn't the spawn or evil like you make it out to me and capitalism the best thing that there is.

eRep =/ reality. And then I'd have to go all over again to actualy get you think on your own instead of believing what all people tell you to, and say that neighter Cuba, Russia, China, North Corea, ... have communism as system. Most of them are dictatorships. And personaly, I'd rather live in Cuba than in the USA.

Comments like these are just as ignorant. The capitalism-communism debate is virtually meaningless in this game. You are either successful dealilng with game mechanics or you are not, but don't blame your economic failures on "capitalism". That is like blaming athletic failures on the laws of physics. Whether you choose to compete or work together is up to you, but the economic framework in this game is still market-based and game mechanics do not allow for broad market control. Therefore small production communes will always be the extent of communiset influence in this game.

Soviet Union failed to do it, Communism has never ever had a shining example of what it really is. Cuba is actually the most successful communist country today and is getting better every day. Capitalism cannot rescue our economy or whatever, Game changes that the admins make influence our economy more so then our economic system.

I hope next time a right minded person gets elected.

No offense but can we get this person like banned from the forums?

That was pretty rude message, but I don't think it's a bannable offense.

Chill out FreddeLeGrand, any economics-related changes requires consent from the congress. I voted for Habraka, but I have seen nothing to suggest that Theneka can't be a good leader.

Also, Fredde, your insult to Theneka is itself not well phrased in English. I will take Theneka's English over yours any day.

by **Theneka** 2010-09-06, 20:14

Chill out people. Who cares what one person is spamming in all fora and articles. I don't feel offended, as I know that my english spelling sucks Smile

so does my dutch french and german spelling :p but at least I'm able to speak those languages (ok, not german, but who cares xD )

Atm, I still dont know who to vote for

AVegan has proposed realistic goals, but his cabinet number is way too big in my personal opinion, his manifesto says what he wants to do, but he isnt explaining how he wants to do it

Sammy has proposed stupid and ridiculous goals, but his cabinet number is ok and he had posted a manifesto where we can find what he wants to do and explains how he wants to do it in general

I dont know who to choose for
