For local elections that's a bigger issue, but for state elections, that doesn't affect it too much, honestly. I'd still not want term limits, even if helped more with that, but also because of what you said as well earlier. Sometimes it takes some time to get shit done in Washington.

i think it depends on the position. the moire localized id say longer terms is fine. when theres a lot of power involved rotation is better, doesnt really matter if ppl like someone or not, its simply a matter of precenting cronyism

I wouldn't worry about it

I thought you defended it, also, but I'm also not assed enough to look for it.

 

[Butters]

or googled one

 

[Dakstang]

Proven wrong...lol

 

[Dakstang]

[Smart Marx]

I quoted the wrong one. All you greens look alike.

I don't think I mentioned communist or socialism today at all tbh

 

[Dakstang]

And Grim would be blocked if I could. So I will just endeavor to ignore his rhetoric.

 

[Comrade Khan]

Overall I'd def say I'm against term limits for congressmen, at least representatives. I'd consider it for senatoes

so not much different than me i suppose

Oh nvm lol

 

[Grimoire Lenin]

I think the worst I did was say,"Here's the definition of Communism as defined by Karl Marx and Here's why Stalinism and Mao-ism and North Korea aren't Communist by it's own definition" lolol

Okay, electoral reform. As someone who was doing a lot of stuff related to it at the time, I will give him some slack on. At that time I was at UPEI and there was talk of electoral reform on the Island. There was a plebiscite which in all likelihood, would have been an indicator of the possible support of it. The reason why is while the Island is small, they are known for high amounts of political participation. (cont)

The plebiscite... Only had 30% voter turnout. In a place which had 80% voter turn out in a Hurricane. There were five options, two were First Past the Post (then FPTP + leaders which... unconstitutional) then they had MMP, Dual Member (which they created) and preferential/ranked. They had it in instant runoffs of your rankings, whatever one gets 50%+1 first wins. (cont again)

if you dont want limits though, i still think all these folks need to be more vetted anually or bi annualy by non partisan entitities to prevent fraud
