Today I’ve got this Issue on my Nationstates (nationstates.net)
How Much Democracy Is Too Much?
Government bureaucrats have called for an end to the mandatory referenda of new laws, citing the difficulty of processing so many votes on a regular basis.
I’ve encountered with many choices
1. “The madness has gone on for long enough,” says Voting Registry Clerk Gretel Zhu, visibly suffering from sleep deprivation. “We’ve been working around the clock processing all these referendums! Every day we receive millions of votes for the most inconsequential of by-laws! They all have to be counted, recounted, checked for errors, and it’s driving me up the wall! You need to leave the responsibility of voting to Parliament. After all, representing the people is what they get paid for.”
2. “Don’t stop the referendums! We need more democracy, not less!” cries Anne-Marie Patel, a prominent voting rights advocate. “Giving the law back to the people was a good first step, but where’s the democracy in the courts? Court verdicts are still forced down the people’s throats by mean, spiteful judges with no one to answer to! It’s time to abolish the judicial system once and for all and give justice back to the people!”
3. “Excuse us, but aren’t you missing the point?” asks the unidentified spokesperson of some citizens gathered around your office door. “We, the people of NATIONSNAME, know what is in our best interests. We can make our OWN decisions. Why don’t you leave this matter to us? We’ll hold a referendum to decide what needs to be done, should only be a week or two. We’ll get back to you once we’re finished.”
