Interesting to see Tories advocating for nationalization...

Nationalization? We're not trying to bring the RP Shoppes or the Bazaar under government control ;D
The IRC channel? As an organ of Taijitu it should be run by the Taijituan government.

Well, there's already a national bank...

But seriously, currently the IRC channel's privately owned and operated, and the CPT (according to Myroria's platform) wants to put it under control of the government.  I just find that incredibly funny.

Well Canada as a national bank, and we're far from Communist ;D

Yes, it is kind of ironic, but with the recent crisis over people losing their ops, we feel that under current management the IRC is a mess.

Perfectly true.

Again, perfectly true.  I would like to make the point that there doesn't seem much for the TCP to do.  The bank is nationalized, the IRC channel (should you get your way) will be nationalized, the democratic branch is the most powerful branch of the Tai government, there is no form of economic exploitation...

Draw your own conclusions.

Oh, there'd be plenty for you to do. Like nationalize the RP Shoppes or the Bazaar. That seems to fit Socialist/Communistic economic theory.

Not really.  First off, RP exists in its own little fantasy world.  The money exchanged is not, in most cases, Tai, but the national currencies of one or more nations, which have even less actual existence or value.  Secondly, the exchange of goods and services is not prohibited by any sort of socialism, and the forum for the exchange, the Bazaar, need not be state-owned.  The both the production and exchange of the goods and services to be exchanged in the Bazaar conforms entirely to socialist principles (i.e., each person produces the goods/services they sell), and the exchange of goods and services produces no surplus value.

Good enough point.
Still, this whole thing is kind of pointless, at least here in the CPT thread. This really doesn't have to do with the fledging party, and like or not we're here to stay ;D
We've got just as much a right to exist as the TCP does.

...Did I say you weren't here to stay, or that you didn't have the right to exist?  Quite honestly, I like having CPT around.  Not only does it make the acronyms far more confusing than they were already, its presence marks the second time that an ideological party has arisen in Taijitu.

We love you to ;D
We're a new party, perhaps I took some of your posts as an attempt to try and prove the CPT has no reason for existing. If I took those posts out of context, I apologize.
Campaign season and all. You tend to take a closer look at what people are saying, sometimes to close.

If you look at the fifteenth word of every post that I've made since October 11, translate those words into Hebrew, take the numerological value of the letters of those words, and divide that by seven, you get the number of brain cells I just lost while typing this.

The point?  Sometimes it pays to look closely.

lol.  Actually, they're translated into Hebrew because that's the only language which I'm familiar with the numerological value of the letters.

Well, IRC is a clusterfuck right now, and the thing with me saying "I TOLD YOU SO" with Govindia... that's reffering to me telling everyone and their mother in IRC that he was bad news, as he harrassed ppl constantly, but was allowed to continue in the spirit of 'tolerance" heh.. bullshit... and now, after everone thought ol' SD was an asshat, look who's on fuckin' trial? Govindia!

But ya struck on a key word GC.. *Nationalism*

That's what we need man, some Taijitan Nationalism... I think we could use a good dose of that in here.

What I actually said was "nationalization," but good luck with that.
