Quote from: Emergency Government Bill
Emergency Government intends to overcome deadlocks on democracy through absence of legal or legislative authorities.

I've heard both sides for this bill, and both are both very reasonable. The reasons AGAINST it are:
 1. Delfos is insane 2. this bill is poorly written 3. what?! 4. this bill is to extreme
the reasons I've seen FOR it are:
1. well it's something
2. well the incumbent government is inefficient, incomplete and questionably active

I agree with all these points, so it's indeed hard to choose. I still hold my vote FOR because it is, indeed something

I refute all points against.
1. Insane is to let this region die by only showing your face to criticize when your power is questioned and running away when your power is needed.
2. This bill is the best we have, if you want better then act, pull your sleeves up, criticize activity only defends your way: Inactivity.
3. What?
4. This bill is extreme because the situation is extreme. We have no active people, no Senate, no nothing, if I was to be as inactive as you are, we'd have 0 activity for half a month.

Funky tried and couldn't pass reforms by either dysfunctional Senate or inactive people, ironic coincidence it included people voting for Inactivity.
Eluvatar tried and couldn't pass his bill to keep the region alive.

I hope you can't find more people to raise from the dead to vote against this bill, I hope I can find enough citizens to be able to act. My hands are tied, you can untie them yet your only actions is to vote and promote against the only activity left in this forum. Prove me wrong and I'll be happy, prove me right and you'll let the whole region down.

While I'm very sorry I wasn't here, this referendum was held 10 days too early.

Please discuss.
