When the government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny.

Tyrants from Hitler to Mao to Stalin have sought to disarm their own citizens, for the simple reason that unarmed people are easier to control.

Could someone be so kind as to quickly remind me of the actual function and effects of the Taijitu government?

In what form Shackfold? (Do you mind if I just call you Shaq for short?) I'm just curious to know how you see the role and actions of our current government, and what suggestions you'd have to improve or change it.

Well, I'm not Shaq, but I believe we need much more control over the founder nation.  That needs to be held under lock and key even from the Delegate.  Much like the US President cannot declare war without the Senate's approval, our Delegate should not be able to take control of the founder nation for any reason without express (if not unanimous) Senate approval.

have a society where too many people never get to fulfill that

government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress. And so give everyone a chance to live the life they want." - Nick Clegg, Leader of the Liberal Democrats and Deputy Prime Minister of the United Kingdom

Sadly, no.  Though I am black, I will probably end up a good foot shorter than Shaq, and I won't have the rings or millions of dollars (not from the NBA, at least).
