Vote Breyev!


It's a nice start! I hope to see some more contents though for your next one :P --O u WTBsjrief-mich 10:52, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

A vote for Abrahams is a vote for CLYMENE!


Under the previous Abrahams administration:
 * ✓ Tourism revenues have increased significantly


 * ✓ Adoha has been redeveloped to further attract people


 * ✓ Healthcare has been improved with the upkeep of Clymene's hospitals.

Re-elect your governor and he will ensure that:
 * Public transportation is expanded to buses and current transport is well maintained
 * Creation of a good centralized public and secondary school network
 * Local cultural events and attractions will be supported by the government

BE SURE TO VOTE Abrahams (Labour). HORTON11 : •  14:28, September 12, 2012 (UTC)

(More reasons to) vote Breyev!


SEMYON BREYEV is an independent candidate standing for election as Governor of Seven. Under his administration, two new schools have been built and excellent transport links introduced. He works hard to represent you both in Congress and back at home. He has: He deserves your vote. Give it to him on October the 1st.
 * morals and values, but also the pragmatism to work with opponents.
 * a unique knowledge of the state of Seven.
 * a desire to preserve Seven's culture and to increase autonomy from NC.
 * the dedication and love for his state which push him to work harder for it.

Lukas Hoffmann - All Sylvania Forwards!


Strength in the Head of Governance: Knowledge and Wealth for the People: Support from all Without and all Within:
 * Lukas Has Always Been On Top - Hoffmann is a decisive, intelligent and visionary citizen who is in touch with the people and has the experience and know how to make the CNP plans to help Lovia and Sylvania come together. He knows that Sylvania needs industry and education as well as freedom and security.
 * No Abandoning The Working Class - It's time to help the poor, the previous Governors party openly declares it focuses on the Middle Class while here in the CNP we focus on helping the Working Class increase their income as they need it the most. We hope to introduce a system of Welfare Vouchers within Sylvania and to fight off attempts to introduce hand down taxes such as VAT.
 * Unafraid To Ask For More Independence- We are ready to push for more powers to the states, so that Sylvania can be operated as Sylvania needs to not as a collective average of the States. We plan to work with Semyon Breyev and Oos Wes Ilava who are also running with promises of more autonomy to push this idea home.
 * Make Sylvania A True Centre Of Education - Sylvania has long been the centre of Education for all of Lovia, but with the growth of both the population and foreign interest in Lovia we should strive for more. We hope to evaluate the school system and increase the amount and specialisation of the Universities within Sylvania.
 * Helping Communities And Business Grow - As the Governor of Sylvania Lukas will help the new citizens from within and without Lovia to grow within the nation and help them grow their businesses. This will be done via unique interpersonal social and business start-up programs run by Lukas himself.
 * Popular Policies Don't Have To Be Expensive - Lukas has a strong track record of being good with money, always getting the best price, not using the size of the cash spent as a representation of a job well done. Spending will be done wisely under Lukas's governance, no cutting or spending for the sake of it.
 * States Unite To Have More Freedom - With more and more people wanting greater autonomy for the states, Lukas plans to campaign strongly along side them, some of the big names involved in aiming for greater autonomy are Oos Wes Ilava and Semyon Breyev who hope to be governors of other Lovian states. Uniting the states power together to generate more flexible local policy.

Settlements With Us:
 * Enhancing The Culture Capital Of Noble City - We aim to increase the educational capacity of Noble city, bulk up the services and secondary industry while giving support to primary industries and develop the cultural awareness within Noble City through Libraries and Museums. We plan to offset costs with the greater income and increased encouragement for tourism and industrial production.
 * Train Village Gaining Autonomy And Strength - We aim to develop the independence of Train Village within Sylvania giving it a little bit of leway to do things its own way, along with this we aim to promote both industry and tourism within Train Village giving it the reboot to its economy it's been asking for. These processes will bring in cash that can be used to offset costs and fund further projects.

So Sylvanians ask yourselves, do you want greater freedom and education for the future? do you want a community based leader who is with the people? do you want a system that furthers individual initiative and enterprise? '''Then when you come to vote and see the names on the ballot, ask yourself again! "don't you want things moving again?" then vote for Lukas Hoffmann! The decisive, intelligent and visionary leader Sylvania needs!'''

 * I remember watching citizen kane and I can't help but find this applause quite amusing :L Kunarian (talk) 15:09, September 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * It reminds me of Romney's latest speech. Just like his, this is all sho and no go; just a buch of fancy words without real meaning. HORTON11 : Email_icon.jpg • follow_me.PNG 20:45, September 14, 2012 (UTC)
 * Nothing but slander without meaning, I've clearly set out what I want to do, your leader has said nothing of what he plans to do for Sylvania, we need a Governor who understands the local situation. On top of that comparing me to Romney is fallacy, as he is not libertarian nor conservative. Kunarian (talk) 18:31, September 16, 2012 (UTC)

Progressive Common Sense
Helo, Noble City the Labour Party is back and we will form the next Lovian government!!! You know I go around Lovia alot, meet alot of new people and learn of what this country needs. Basically it's just some Progressive Common Sense! We look to other countries and ideas so that instead of trying and failing here, I want to best solutions to come to Lovia and have the best economic success. In January 2013, you go to the polls and vote it would be the stupidest thing to vote for a no regulation capitalist! Look at Europe and America, the biggest economies in the world fell, because of no oversight. Now you can look for example at Ireland where there was no reguation, low taxation and continued low taxation, no regulation and never got out of the recession. Or to America, where after long years of War, no regulation and low taxation they elected a regulator in chief and someone to fight for the middle class, and the current IMF projections show Obama's economy will grow larger and faster over the next four years! Now you can say this is bogus or look at the facts and use them! Now like I said, I've been around Lovia, and we're a pretty centrist country and I'll give credit were credit is due, and that is to Progressive Common Sense. When you take care of the poor and understand that giving the best opportunities to your citizens is how you build an economy that is when you will see economic growth.

You might have heard, but there is an election going on in America and recently in my hometown back in New York someone bought ad time and spoke of there past in socialist Hungry and how the "job creators" were dicouraged and how leftest politics never work. After I was done literally ROFLing I knew I had to write this speech, I know soicalism doesn't work but some aspects of socializing your health care industry and providing public schools and social security is right. And what might happen is the profit and jobs that could be made won't be made but the person in that ad doesn't understand not everything is for profit it's providing basic services to your middle class and poor that are the most vunerable. Its not for profit when my company Villanova Inc. provides public transportation at low rates and money is lost, but it's for the better of the country.

So going to the polls 2013 and you think the thought of becoming the 1% and risking your safety net to go become that 1% is worth it vote for another party. But when you want a party trusted on the NHS, Health and Welfare services and protecting the poor, vote progressive! Vote Labour! Thank you! Marcus/Michael Villanova 21:59, October 28, 2012 (UTC)


 * "You may have heard recently of a speech made by our Labour counterpart, Mr Villanova, where he spoke down capitalism and spoke down low taxes and spoke up Obama, a man who has violated the US constitution and allowed american citizens to be: 1. assasinated at will and 2. imprisoned indefinitely without charge. And then proceeded to go on a lot about how great he's been going around the country and how great his party is and a lot of other things that I will adress. But let's start with a positive point, about halfway through his speech he openly says "I know socialism doesn't work" thank god, finally we've got the point across to the leader of the left. Now some may say this is taken out of context however on the matter of capitalism vs socialism, he's clearly decided that it's been enough time hiding away and that he can finally come out of the closet and be the capitalist he is inside!


 * However I think we should be very afraid of the capitalism Mr Villanova offers. As I strongly suspect that it will be government operated corporatism were the poor suffer under a mountain of tax and the corporate executives get rich quick. For example, he's clearly already stated his hatred of low taxes however he also mentions his company which now has a public bus transport company. The very same public bus transport company that pays its workers only just above minimum wage and is constantly subsidised due to it not being able to manage it's revenue and spending.


 * I don't think it's very convincing that you're going to provide good services through government if you can't produce a company that pays it's workers well, because I tell Mr Villanova this, if anything is the problem with modern business, it's the low pay that workers get and the way government takes so much of this pay off of them. And with his company's record on workers pay and his plan to introduce more than ten types of new crippling taxes all I can say is that what we really need is business that is for profit and that is willing to pay its workers well.


 * The working class, middle class and upper class, ALL PARTS OF SOCIETY, benefit when workers are paid well and taxes are low. The working class are more willing the work and able to increase their standard of living by buying goods, the middle class are able to get jobs managing the places of work that the working class work at, the upper class are happy because they have managers and workers and because their goods are selling.


 * Everyone lives easier. And with our renewed efforts in Sylvania to provide and proper public transport service in cooperation with the CCPL, which will create jobs for many people and you will have to pay a little bit more to use these services but you should be able to do this because we're going to keep taxes low, so you can not only afford to pay a little more but you can afford to buy more things and treat yourself and your family or save for something you want or need, and on top of that you should be able to pay that little bit more because you should know that the person driving that bus is getting paid properly and you should know that the person repairing it is and you should know that we won't be wasting your taxes on subsidising something you can pay for.


 * Instead we'll be using your taxes to establish something you actually need, not something half socialists want. We'll be working to bring you a new welfare system that includes benefits for the elderly and benefits for those unlucky enough to have lost their job in the recession. We'll be working to establish a proper healthcare system that won't be monopolised but will provide for the poor and needy while making sure that those who can pay, do pay. We'll be using your taxes to ensure that your savings are safe by working ourselves out of the straight jacket of the Lovian dollar being pegged to the US dollar. We'll be using your taxes to ensure that education in Lovia is up to date and effective. We'll be using your taxes to ensure the economy grows and fights monopolies. We'll get things working again.


 * So when it comes to the 2013 federal election if you want a party that doesn't play class war, a party that has good economic sense and a party that has well defined plans for our healthcare and education then vote Conservative Nationalist! common sense policies from the party that truly wants to Bring Lovia Forwards Together!" - Hoffmann at the CNP conference building on an open night.


 * Funnily enough... I think me and Labour are going to be fighting the hardest next year for more states rights. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 23:01, October 28, 2012 (UTC)
 * http://www.psychologicalscience.org/index.php/news/releases/a-more-progressive-tax-system-makes-people-happier.html
 * I've never actually let my politics be based on "politics" but science, psychology and thinking. More or less Sociaism isn't right but certain elements do work, Capitalism in just a psychological sense works, of the "teasing" of the upper crust, or else people would just stop working. I believe though progressivism and solidarity of the lower classes helps more people get that upper crust though simple as that and just makes great economic sense.
 * On InterBus, I understand 13.50 is above minimum wage, barley but I am offering good sustainable jobs to the Lovian people. On that note the unions and I are reaching a settlement to give them annual salaries like every othe bus comapny in the world and America (as a point) at 50.000 Dollars starting salary. It's not that i wouldn't like to offer them more but it's imports and the middle east's strangle hold on gasoline and our dependence on it that hurts. I've also worked to buy more electrically powered buses to solve this and stop the dependence on foriegn oil.
 * I do always sort of love that "big society" talk of, when taxes are low and people buy things and managers are happy and the sun has a giant smile everything works well :D just as how me and my counterpart agree socialism is wrong in that it is imaginary so is this sort of Ayn Rand sort of thought of no one looking after you or just no one helping you, helps everyone. Well I can telling you this "more is more" and "less is less" and when a government has no money and spends money that is doesn't have it can't offer it's "more" and has to rely on unwatched buinesses to offer them at higher rates.
 * I think though like I said most of this is common sense nothing mroe and giving states more power, like a devoluted assembly, weather you call it buacracy, works. The plan I proposed cleared that up, I admited yes, I want a govermental body at a local level controlling the issues the locals want. I think I'll push that through in the next congress and make sure the Lovian people get what they want. Marcus/Michael Villanova 00:32, October 29, 2012 (UTC)

"What helps people move forwards together is not the solidarity of the lower classes but the solidarity of Lovians. And I urge Lovians to stand together against the class war of the left. We unlike Labour do not say we shall take what you have worked hard to earn and help you with your own money, we here in the CNP say that we MUST overcome our predjudices and we MUST learn to walk hand in hand and we MUST help ourselves! Unity does not need to be forced upon the people and no one needs be outcast for having more or less wealth. Unity will come by a strong government with strong leaders.

And with the inflation of the US dollar, inflating our Lovian dollar and the increasing costs of goods, at a time when the economy is still staying meagre and unwilling to leap forwards, it is no surprise that your workers have demanded higher and stablised pay.

However you raise the point of gasoline and oil being strangled by the middle east and how your company has avoided this stranglehold, what about the people of Lovia who cannot avoid this strangle hold? do we condemn them to being squeezed of every last cent in their pocket? no!

We have oil. All around us in Lovia, we have gas and other resources at sea and a huge exclusive economic zone which remains untouched. Cheap energy that we can use as a spark for our economy, however regulations demand that all energy produced be green. I say this is mad, why not use what we have? and bring to Lovia what other countries struggle with and fail to produce, in America their energy policy and economy is being dragged down by the two party system, in the UK they have had an increase in energy costs and the Government is powerless to do anything. We are not powerless! We can and will reboot our economy, the CNP will help lead the way forwards.

And I find it saddening that if you believe giving people freedom to use their own earnings to support themselves and believe that people helping each other by working together in business to produce goods and wealth for all are bad things and things that are imaginary, it will I'm sure come as a surprise when this becomes the norm in Lovia when we establish proper policy in Lovia guaranteeing the people freedom from over taxation, over regulation and over reaching government!

And what my opposition seems to fail to understand is that it is not us that will be using unwatched businesses in governance, it was Labours ruling of Sylvania that left everything to go unwatched and un altered and unchanged and now when we bring in a system to provide more for the people by ensuring that these businesses we shall work with have good wages and proper standards they call them unwatched and are upset that the people will have the choice of whether to spend their money on these services instead of having it taken in tax whether they use the service or not!

On States however we can finally agree, states need power and this power needs to be democratic. We at the CNP have a full state reform that is well written by Mr Hoffmann himself, and it will not incur bureaucracy, it will be the first step towards a truly confederate Lovia where your vote is worth more and where you get to decide on the issues in your area and where they won't be blocked by a central government so composed of different views that none truly get a voice. Our reform will bring the States up in power and give them the ability to legislate over social and civil law and will truly revolutionise the political operations of our nation.

The people trust us on this issue of States Rights and I truly believe they want us to move forwards with it and move forwards with it with other parties as the first sign of Lovian solidarity. We will bring more democracy to Lovia, we will Bring Lovia Forwards Together!" A follow up speech by Hoffmann, called a speech of great vigor and energy.

Hoffmann Kunarian TALK 01:27, October 29, 2012 (UTC)

Ha, okay but the "class war", a tactic used by the right to claim left wing re-distribution to evil and not for the common good, is bull crap and if any war is started it's by the Right wingers and the Rich by buying out political offices to be in there favor. At least when a Labour Union or people actually donate to a left wing party, it's the people's money, the 99% the people that will actually be affected by the change, or no change, in Government. I am always one for a debate over oil, but it always ends up, what will you do when it's gone!?! You will never run out of sun, or wind, or water that can power homes, cars and everything else. Marcus/Michael Villanova 12:41, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * "And here we have it, the Labour party showing their true colours, not of tolerance or of equality but of hatred and that hatred is of anyone who does not believe in their ideals and it is a hatred of anyone with more money than them. We all know that redistribution of wealth doesn't work, he even admitted it in the beginning, however what we do know that works is welfare, which is far from the redistribution of wealth he suggests we take on!


 * And to be so blinded by ideology to suggest that those who believe in market deregulation and those who have wealth start wars is madness! It is not the right or left wing government that declares war but the authoritarian government that does! And I believe a government under Labour would be very authoritarian. It would demand that you see as it sees and speak as it speaks, if you were to resist they would break you with taxes, regulation and laws. Making it impossible for you to hold an alternative view and live your life the way you choose.


 * The thing is that we recieve almost all of our donations from people, we recieve a set amount from the Kameron Family due to them being the partys creator and we do not accept money from corporations or unions, only people! We unlike the Labour Party do not wish to be brought out by Unions, we do not wish to divide society with this 99% falsehood and we do not wish to condemn and punish people for having a different view!


 * And on oil. Your so called alternative energy does not work! At least not yet, it is predicted to become practical and reliable in 40 years time. Until then we need something to keep us going, something that is cheap and reliable, something that current Green energy initiatives are not. Oil around Lovia will keep us going for 40 years and more with cheap energy and it will bridge the gap from energy technologies of the past to energy technologies of the future and will then be able to be used for things other than energy production. Green energy is the future and we should prepare for it but we aren't there yet and there's no point ignoring that fact.


 * So who do you want to vote for Lovia, the Labour party? the party that will punish you for thinking differently? the party that will punish you for being sucessful? the party that will punish you for wanting cheap energy now? or will you vote for the Conservative Nationalist Party? the party that wants you to be able to choose how you live, the party that will allow you to become successful and the party that will give Lovia cheap energy for now and the future!


 * Well it's quite clear where your vote should go, vote CNP! and help Bring Lovia Forwards Together!"


 * Hoffmann speaks directly to Villanova in front of a crowd in speakers corner after Villanovas short speech which he calls 'nothing but anger and jealousy towards those who think differently or have more, we need people in Congress of conviction and calm heads not those of discrimination and daggered eyes'. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 18:30, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * We are not the intolerant ingornant people, We are the party of everyone. Gay, Black, Muslim, Rich, Poor, whate ever. You Arent. We understand ecnomics, we understand people and instead of making up false claims of that we are intolerant and we hate people, is quite hypocritial when a party who instead of actually putting foward credible ideas backed with even the least bit of thought. I never stated the class war, the class war doesn't truly exist but it's a tactic used by right-wingers to claim we hate the poor and we hate the rich and thus we hate everyone and we don't know anything about an economy. Not true, it's a war per se, when the rich buy out your congress and put in laws that protect the top not the 100%. At least when a Union does it, it protects the 99% so yes pick your poision, but i'd rather have someone or a group of the 99% funding me not the groups of the 1%. But like I said, and if the Governor would actually read, socialistic ideas work. You like your Social Security? You like you Medicare? You like you Universal Health Care? Public School? Things offered by the Public sector? Then you believe in socialistic ideas. So instead of making a profit and looking out for the top, these things offered to the public by using tax dollars, EVERYONE'S TAX DOLLARS. Becuase unlike the right, we believe the best comees out when the Public sector preforms it's best. Because everyone belongs to the Government and the Government belongs to us. So unlike you, who seperates people and claims someone else will try to seperate someone, we should come to together. Not to make a profit but to make this country better. You claim I'm against people. You claim I'm discrimate. Wrong. When it's the right wing who denies people rights and basic functions and denies the poor and middle class social mobility. I've never made the claim against you but I can see you and Mesiereere (the new guy) are the same claiming people are racist bigots with no proof when, like you from the right is someone who denies people basic economic and social rights. 'Marcus Villanova calls Kunarian's speeches the "Missinformation of the Right" Marcus/Michael Villanova 18:56, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * Just so we're clear, Progressive ≠ authoritarian. On the other hand, I, like many Lovians, would be wary of a party named "nationalist", since those are the ones to look out for.
 * Now why vote Labour? Because Labour, unlike the CNP, will embrace all ideas to better Lovia. Because Labour will help supply Lovia with clean energy for years to come. Because labor will help all hardworking Lovians to better help themselves, their families and their country. Unlike CNP, I cannot and will not make lots of fancy promises. What I do promise to Lovia, though, will be achieved.
 * Now Mr. Hoffmann is trying to make a fuss over a so-called class war.but his arguments of lowering taxes across the board will only further divide the bottom from the top. The solution is simple: progressive taxation. Like many tea-partyers and American rightists the CNP will try and denounce this as evil, but it works! Just look at Sweden, Norway, Japan, all these have progressive taxes and have become modern nations assisting all elements in society.WIth progressive tax, the poor will have to pay less and will have more money to benefit their family. And though the rich will pay proportionally more, that tax money will not go into greedy politicians' pockets; instead it will be re-invested in communities across Lovia to help people in all elements of society.


 * So, do we want to stay in the dark ages or would you rather move in to the future. If you do, vote Labour and Advance with Abrahams. HORTON11 : Email_icon.jpg • follow_me.PNG 19:10, October 29, 2012 (UTC)


 * "They claim to be the party of everyone. They list gay, black, muslim, rich and poor. And then say we aren't. This is utter madness and people know this, this is just the prejudice of Villanova manifesting again, and we've seen it before so many times and the more power we give him and his party, the more power we give to prejudice. And onto his point about the rich and poor. His party has been banging the drum of the middle class for ages, his party proposed a tax plan that favoured the middle class over the poor and did not exclude them from tax and it was his party that wanted to implement hand down taxes that would rob the poor of even more of their hard earned cash.
 * And we have put forwards credible ideas, we've got a State Reform that is written up properly and fits perfectly with our current constitution unlike the bureaucratic mess that the reform proposed by the Labour party was. We also have a semi-progressive/flat tax system readying to be proposed and isn't over bearing nor unfair and doesn't favour the middle class unlike the tax system that has constantly been proposed by Labour.
 * And then he goes off again claiming that class war is used by rightists to put them down, so here we are agian onto his prejudice against the right, I am not blanket arguing against the left unlike him calling all leftists names and labels that do not apply to him, I argue against him and Labour. And with that comment agianst rightists, he can forget ever using the 'party for all Lovians' label again.
 * Onto his next argument of 99% and 1% again and these false ideas of the rich buying out congress. And then he slumps into personal insults and comes out saying that socialist ideas work, yada yada, I think I've already adressed this, the CNP are for things that benefit the society and the individual, simple.
 * His next comment is really something else though, he seems to suggest that making a profit helps the 1%, and here of course more prejudice and class war going on, well strangely enough making a profit helps everyone actually, it helps the workers feed themselves, it helps the customers live happier lives and it helps the manager create more jobs! So strangely enough I do like profits unlike him.
 * And then he suggests that we are trying to seperate people. US! the ones who call for Lovia to move forwards together, us, the ones who have not been attacking the rich constantly and us, the ones who have been calling for unity while the Labour party attacks the right and creates a huge division there! Sir I believe you should choose your next words carefully. Hypocrital statements are not appreciated in Lovia. Because the CNP no Labour is the true party of unity, we welcome all and want to work with all, our coalition that we are party of goes from the Greens to the SLP to the PL to the CNP, where is your Coaltion? no where, these four parties also cooperate with the CCPL, and I truly believe that it is these five parties that shall spell Lovia's future.
 * And then finally his final thrash to try and throw some mud, however before that of course making sure he says the standard 'the right hate everyone sentence' and then goes to aim. He makes the false claim that I have called someone a racist bigot, and falsely claims that we will deny people social and economic rights and once again tries to tie everyone from the right to his prejudicial idea. I think Marcus needs to wake up and realise he isn't in America, he isn't in England, he is in Lovia. And he has done more damage to himself I feel with his speech today and I believe that anyone that knows me and my politics or anyone who reads what I have said, they will know that I never falsely accuse people, I am for more rights than Marcus thinks people should have and I am for more power to the states without bureaucracy and without a subverse political agenda." Hoffmann refutes Villanovas claims Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 20:13, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * "I also received today a piece of research or more specifically a piece of writing on a piece of research on how progressive taxation supposibly makes people happier. I just need but a moment to refute this. People with wealth are happier than people without wealth. And when the richest countries in the world operate under progressive taxation and the poorer under flatter tax systems (due to them utilising the policy to build their economies) you can clearly see that not only is this data false in supporting its argument but completely wrong to use as evidence. You need two countries with similar economies and similar societies with the biggest difference between them being a flat and progressive tax system to perform this experiment. And lord knows where we are going to find one of those.
 * And no progressive does not equal authoritarian but the prejudice expressed by you and your party leader will lead to authoritarianism, because authoritarian regimes thrive off of prejudice they feed and live off of it! Then he tells us to be wary of us for calling ourselves nationalists, so should we be wary of our Prime Minister Mr Ilava who is an Oceana nationalist? the Prime Minister who has garnered some of the highest approval ratings in Lovian history and the Prime Minister who has given this country stability and peace and has included everyone, from left to right, and conservative to progressive in its governance? no nationalism is nothing to be afraid of however returning to the days where only the likes of Marcus and Abrahams hold places in government is something to be very afraid of.
 * And once again they attack the idea of low taxes, and then he like his leader attacks the right as a whole, and despite the fact that we are working on a semi-progressive flat tax system claims we call this system evil. And I say that yes we like low taxes, and yes we like flat taxes but we like low taxes more and so we have agreed to a semi-progressive system. So we want you to keep more money in your pocket and go buy yourself something nice instead of forking out every hard earned cent to be spent by Labour who think that they know better than everyone about what to do with their money.
 * And I think most people will realise that CNP policies are not medieval like Abrahams suggest however I must say my oppositions political debate seems to be! Vote CNP and Bring Lovia Forwards Together!" Hoffmann adressing Abrahams concerns. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 20:13, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * Don't forget I was the one who proposed the compromise between progressive and flat. And fear tactics don't work; if that's all you do you're not getting very far. Instead of all this dirty politics, we should find a way to work together and prevent fighting. If a party is only interested in its own success, what will happen to the people's. HORTON11 : Email_icon.jpg • follow_me.PNG 20:22, October 29, 2012 (UTC)
 * The compromise we were already working out? I don't deny your place in suggesting it. But you arguing against lower taxes is simply wrong. And I'm not the one using fear tactics, I've been suggesting solutions, all you and your leader have been doing is proving your prejudice and therefore your lack of quality for a position leading the government. And the party that started the fighting is yours, not mine, and after the failure of your mud slinging and now that your position is losing you suddenly go on about dirty politics and how to stop it. May I be the first to suggest that you don't bring your prejudices against anyone on the right or who is conservative to the table. Then you'll stop the fighting.

Jackson Welsh's Speech
In the last week certain user's have claimed my parties name and message is "dumb" and "makes no sense". My party's message is clear and so is the name, the people want freedom and the want it in a progressive manner.

Mr.Krosby has said "marijuana" is legalized. Yet I say, it is and isn't, we want it defined as is. And our goal of it being legalized is currently threatened by Mr.Seymon because of the law's, currently in the first chamber, language outlawing the smoking of HEMP! We also stand for more rights which come in the form of anti-prohibition. We want to lower the voting age to 16, we want to legalize prostitution in a regulated and good manner and allow people to put non-harmful drugs in there body and have control over there body because they are knowledgeable adults. Secondly our message is much different than the "Green Party" which is a center, center-right party. Our message is, as said before, anti-prohibition, progressive pragmatic politics. Building bridges, improving our environment, helping the middle class and putting people first. Please support our democratic right to survive and the right's of the people! (Jackson Welsh)

(Person who is NOT Krosby): Just look at this name. Green Anti-Prohibition Party. What a ridiculous, ludicrous, and silly name for a political party. The GAPP should never have existed, and should remain three separate parties. After all, this would be like the current Green Party and Labour merging. They have separate views, and the three political parties that make up GAPP are not actually that similar, despite all having progressive views. Finally, marijuana is already 100% legal! Why in the world do we need a ludicrous cannabis party? I say these people should join the Green Party or continue their old HEMPPAC as a PAC and not a party. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 22:47, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

OOC: Also, please stop assuming that what I say is what Krosby says. Krosby is the main politician that I control, not someone who announces all of my OOC stances. In character, Krosby has said nothing about GAPP yet. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:03, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

@OOC: -_- crap, @TM - True but what would you perfer a "united left" big tent sort of merger party? Marcus/Michael Villanova 23:10, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

@OOC: -_- not crap. This is what TM is saying, NOT Krosby. Krosby has said nothing about GAPP. @Marcus - Alright, let's talk rationally as if we've never argued about GAPP. ok? Anyway: My proposal is to keep ARP a separate party, remove RENT from existence (there is Labour or CPL.nm) and have HEMPPAC remain a political pressure group. You can have control, but I'd like to keep ARP the way it currently is (but with Liz West) and I'd like to give ARP one MOTC. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 23:16, November 12, 2012 (UTC)

Also, you don't smoke hemp. You smoke marijuana. Hemp is a cousin of marijuana. (preemptive: -_- not crap.) —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 21:23, November 13, 2012 (UTC)

On the road to a new Lovia
Lovia is a great nation. It is a wonderful nation. But like all things wonderful and amazing, it too, has it's flaws. Periods of great fortune and success have been followed by periods of misery, death and destruction. Little over a year ago, our brave little nation had to deal with one of the most horrific episodes in it's short but lively history... the Lovian Civil War. It was a horrendous war and a great crime against humanity. Brother against brother, father against son. Nobody knew who was on what side, there were so many different parties involved each with their own interests and ideals... the horrors of war we witnessed in those frightful days will haunt our collective memories forever.

Never can we, and will we, forget the events of that unfateful month. Never will we forget those who fell fighting for their homes and families, their regions, their culture, their nation. Never will we forget. But we will forgive. We have to forgive. We cannot hold grudges. With those responsible either dead or behind bars, we have to keep strong, we have to keep together! One great nation, devided under one flag, one nation. Visions of greatness and grandeur of the past, we will make them a reality. And we will do so together. Hand in hand, as brothers and sisters. As citizens of the greatest nation that ever has been and ever will be on God's green earth.

We will build together a new Lovia, better then the old Lovia. This new Lovia will rise like the old mystical phoenix from the ashes and shattered hopes of the Civil War. And as God is my witness, my dear friends and supporters, we Lovians will become the envy of the world! Vote CCPL, for the Conservative Christian Party of Lovia is the only true hope for our poor broken nation. Vote for us and make the little weeping angel that is our nation smile once again. Vote for the best party this country and this political system has to offer. For a vote for us, is a vote for a new Lovia! Support us, and we will write history together.

 * This one isn't wordy, you have a lot to say but and manage to say it in not too many words. Some of your speeches, on the other hand, are a pain to read, and they must be even worse to write. You're just not the most concise person on this wiki, and that's one of my few criticisms of you. :P --Semyon 23:32, December 9, 2012 (UTC)

Hoffmanns reply:

"We have established that not only can Markus not spell but that he is also lazy, false and hypocritical, he seems to think that a political poster should write every thing into minuscule details like we're publishing legislation.

He is lazy because he cannot make his own ad and has to take ours.

He is false because he says that detailing on a poster that we are for a free economy, low taxes without taxes on the vulnerable and a positive trade balance is being vague.

He is hypocritical because he says that Labour agrees with it all, while having supported full nationalisation in many sectors of the economy, having supported the most introduction of taxes amongst any party in lovia and having not even wanted to put in an exclusion for the poor on them and worst of all he doesn't believe in bringing Lovia forwards together but rather, only those with whom he agrees or can convince to agree with him.

And need I mention that the "working man" Labour have supported, is only the middle class, they preach about the middle class and protecting them. They are the only party in fact that ignored the working man until the CNP started fighting for the rights of the common man. Thing is we fight for the rights of all people while making sure the poorest are protected and unlike Labour we have a clear history of doing so, so who will you vote for on that matter?

The Political Commercial Continues

​"Progression, Insight, Hope, we must meditate on these items, for these are the signs of a good nation. Tomorrow in the light of a new dawn, we shall move forward Together, and I hope the people of Lovia will vote me to hold your banner to that dawn.

As a member of Congress, I will not worry about the political interest of parties, but the political outlook of the people. I will work intently with that of other congressmen, of both the left and right. We will see Lovia's taxes be adjusted to an amount that is realistic, one that is fair and balanced and will encourage prosperity in Lovia. I will ensure that Lovia's growing economy is not paralyzed, while not allowing for the budget to be broke."

Oops, sorry for teasing you then, Marcus. But in all seriousness, would you guys like a gift basket? No offense, but I really can't stand when people share that they have disabilities over the internet expecting to receive some kind of unnecessary special treatment. A little inside secret is that just about every other person that regularly contributes to a wiki has a little something off about them (its a trend!) and if you guys can socialize over the internet, you don't have any reason to share and nothing to be ashamed of. I'm only going to tell you guys this to put you in the right mindset, I have ADD (and possibly histrionic personality disorder) and I hate giving people the opportunity to consider me different and how some of my friends go around with a gung-ho autistic pride attitude (which I find demeaning) and get alienated for it by people with (shallow) "socially progressive" attitudes.

Besides, on that thinking, why isn't it required to have all unfertilized eggs be fertilized and develop so that they will be able to mold their own destiny? Lastly, it's not the government's choice. It's the woman who is pregnant's choice. She shouldn't have to give birth and take care of a child if she doesn't want to.

This is LIFE, when cell division  begins, it is technically life. Because of course most people on this site are Atheists, you will admit that what the physical is only true- no eternal soul, no spiritual presence, so what is the physical of the two cells- a Human. If you argue that a fully developed human only accounts as being truly human, who can think and do what they need by themself, then you could argue that early infants which have little brain activity and motor skills are not human. The infants are human, they have cell division and are in a growth period. Right now you have cell division happening inside you, you are technically life. When your life ends, you will see that cell division will cease, you are no longer a living being. Charles Alexander Bennett (talk) 16:55, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

(slippery slope argument) by that conclusion every teenage boy is a criminal for mastrubation. Although insane, the same logic would have to be use for that. Marcus/Michael Villanova 16:37, December 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * Sperm do not show any type of cell division, they are the activation to event, but they are not life. The argument is if embryo are a child are not, and now you said that sperm is where life begins, but its when cell division does 'life' begin. Charles Alexander Bennett (talk) 16:55, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

No, an unfertilized egg or sperm is clearly not in the same situation as a fertilized embryo (false analogy, the argument is fallacious). --Semyon 16:48, December 16, 2012 (UTC)


 * I think it is because they have the potential to become a fertilized embryo. And isn't potential to become life the argument? ;) —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 17:47, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * But embryo's are life. Sperm is not. Charles Alexander Bennett (talk) 17:51, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * @TM: actually not, an embryo and arguably a sperm are already alive. The difference is that the embryo is a human (albeit a rather undeveloped one :P) whereas the sperm is not. --Semyon 18:12, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * But they have the potential to merge and become an embryo è. :P I actually don't support abortion personally but I'll be the last to stand in the way of others. —TimeMaster (talk • contribs) 18:18, December 16, 2012 (UTC)
 * Don't know what potential has to do with it è. :P I agree that more leniency should be possible if the abortion is really going to ruin the mother's (or father's, or child's) life, but in general people should take responsibility for their actions - particularly when it's so easy to get contraception. --Semyon 19:21, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

Hm. A majority of the time, when a mother wants an abortion, she is not in a good "situation" to bring up a child anyway. 77topaz (talk) 19:33, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

 * (Continuing the slippery slope argument) so isn't it when a guy masturbates, or a women leaves her eggs unfertilized that is also murder, because there was the chance of life? Marcus/Michael Villanova 22:29, December 16, 2012 (UTC)

 * Yes, that's why the CNP are going to introduce a voucher system for schools so that Children can get the competitive education they need and why we are going to introduce a system by which healthcare is subsidised for people unable to pay. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 16:13, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * Vouchers?! What U was thinking is for congress to introduce a uniform curriculum and have one public school in every major community. I don't know what voucher systems are, but I was going in a direction for more accessibility. HORTON11 : Email_icon.jpg • follow_me.PNG 16:36, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * A uniform curriculum? not a good idea, Kings and Sylvania have much more specialised economies and specialised schools favour this. Then onto public schools, not a good idea, a grants and voucher system is the best, grants will allow people to set up schools and will be proportional to the size of school they are hoping to set up (this would allow for the distant communities in Sylvania to have small private schools in their area instead of being impossibly far away) and vouchers would mean that schools that get results can get money because parents will send their children there, each child will have a voucher and it will be worth an average years schooling. On top of this being cheaper in the end it'll also foster the competitive environment and allow for everyone to afford to go to private schools (which produce better results than public across the board) and will in my opinion be more accessible than a public school system. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 16:52, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * The whole world functions on a public school system so it's a definite must. But at the same time we should have private schools with specialized programs. And what's wrong with a uniform curriculum? It sets good minimum standards to help all children get a good education. But if you're worried about private schools, they should be able to have different/additional subjects as well. We should try and acoomodate both. HORTON11 : Email_icon.jpg • follow_me.PNG 17:25, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * Completely wrong on this point: The whole world functions on a public school system and the failure of these systems to compete with private education is a definite no to a fully public system. I'm all for that and I'm glad you recognise that. We already have a basic curriculum that sets minimum standards, what I'm worried about is that you seem to be suggested a system with less freedom for schools in in. And it's good that you would take that stance however private is the way to go. Hoffmann LogoCNP.png Kunarian TALK 17:49, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * (edc) I have to say, I'm a bit dubious competition in education can achieve the best results. Schools imo should be run by people whose ultimate aim is to educate rather than to make money for themselves. Plus we'll see that the schools that benefit will be those that can fool parents they are providing the best education, rather than those that actually do. --Semyon 17:30, December 17, 2012 (UTC)
 * In the UK (our native land) my elder brother went to a private secondary school (back in the good ol' days when we had money), he came out with the best grades and great work ethic, the rest of us went to public secondary school where they try to cram as many people in to get the most amount of money possible and try to get students to drop subjects they might not do fantastically in to ensure that they look nice on the league tables. I find that private competition, public competition or not at all, there will always be people trying to cheat the system. Besides we won't be making these vouchers of high enough worth for them to allow what Marcus might call 'fat cats' to try and use the system to just generate profit.
