| Welcome to the Global Right Alliance's forums! Firstly, you can only see a very limited amount of the forums at the moment. You will be able to see the full forums and properly participate in our region and its community when you register. Join our Community Now, on to the region itself. Don't let the name, specifically the "Right", fool you. We've got members from across the political spectrum, and our political parties have always reflected this. The Global Right Alliance (GRA), as primarily a gameplay region, has been everything from an anarchy to a monarchy to a homegrown rotatorship. The region has had such governments because of its culture, which adores political intrigue and thrives on confrontation. With the increase of the region's population, many veterans have returned. It is the beginning of a new Global Right Alliance and a new government system. I know the forums can be quite intimidating; there's people who have been here for nearly a decade and have over 10,000 posts. However, we welcome new members and encourage them to get involved. If you want help finding your way around, we have resources to help you to get on your way. Getting Started If you're already a member please log in to your account to access all of our features. |

Dr Seuss wrote something like that too. The Butter Battle Book. One group buttered their bread on the bottom the other on the top. However, nuclear arms played more into it, and its considered more a commentary on the Cold War rather than your specific debate... |

Wasn't referring to the Cold War. Just the ideological opposition of Stalinism and Fascism. Interestingly, Dr. Seuss wrote his books at around the same time (WWII) as the author I have in mind. Coincidence? |

I dare anyone to go into my factory during summer when it hits 130 degrees and tell all of us we are second class citizens who do not work hard. And we do not deserve anything but the job we have. I doubt anyone would leave there with all his body parts still attached. :angry: |

I don't think P.I. see that these 'freebies' and opportunities such as a free public educations are necessary evils. They make it easier for people with the will to work hard even without having money to make their way in the world. How can you deny a child the education, a child that has the potential to work very hard and be you version of a '1st class citizen' if his parents are lazy slobs. Your system has just made that child's journey to become a '1st class citizen' near impossible. It would take a miracle. Of course in your system all children would be automatically 2nd class citizens because they don't work...and if there was no school because their parents couldn't pay for it nor could they. Then what would these children do? Unless of course your systems is pro-child labor. Then it becomes even more impossible to become a 1st class citizen. For me your system is starting to sound like a Charles Dickens novel. Children, Adults and Elderly getting worked to death by their factory owner overlords. Who couldn't give less of a shit about their workers health or if they are alive or dead. There are probably no laws to govern this BUT even IF there were in such a society who would enforce them. It's a corporate society and no corporation would have right to enforce rules upon another. It becomes near impossible to go to school unless your parent's are rich. Children born into 2nd class families will 98% of the time be 2nd class citizens till death. Finally there is no more middle class there are the peasants which depending on the corporation are either slaves or cheap labour. And there are rich people who because of the difficulty of the system probably got to where they are because someone in their family or they themselves were cunning conmen who could get what they want without working hard. While honest rich people that got their fortune by 'working hard' as you put it are a nearly non-exsistant breed because of the difficulty of your system. Even moreso why would a factory worker promote someone who works hard in order have to give some untriained and uneducated slob who won't work nearly as hard the job. Therefore those who work hard would be blocked from advancing unless they make backhand deals or are good at conning and persuading people. [Those types of people who use honest people and everyone around them just to get personal gain, no matter the cost are called psychopaths. They are most numerous in politics and corporate leadership.] |
