Platform Free Speech: ALR advocates absolute free speech, and believes that the regional government has no right to restrict it at all. ALR is against "Hate Speech" laws, or any laws that legislate "politically correct" forms of speech. Economics: ALR believes in a lassiez faire type of capitalist system, in which regulations are minimal at most in order to create a more efficient Hyatian economy. We also believe that taxes should be kept as low as possible or eliminated. These beliefs are based on the principle that nationstates should have more power than regional governments. Education: Liberal Reformists believe the regional government should play no role in dictating education policy for our citizens. This is a national issue, not a regional issue. Healthcare: We believe the regional government should have no role in health care or health insurance. Drugs: Liberal Reformists believe in keeping all drugs safe and legal at a regional level, but letting individual nations decide how they want to handle the issue. Energy: The ALR does not support any intervention in the energy sector by the regional government. Environment: The ALR supports moderate environmental laws to ensure the safety and long-term stability of the region. Property Rights: Liberal Reformists believe property rights are entitled to the same protection as all other human rights. We believe that owners of property have the right to control, use, dispose of, or in any manner to enjoy their property without interference. We are opposed to eminent domain, whether by the government or by a private entity. Justice: We believe the justice system should treat everyone equally. We support habeas corpus and are opposed to ex-post facto laws and guilt by association. We also believe judges should be held more accountable and are opposed to arbitrary powers within the legal system. Welfare: Liberal Reformists believe that welfare is a national issue and should not be dictated by the regional government Abortion: The ALR believes that abortion is a national issue. We do not support regional government intervention in this area. Guns: We support a universal declaration of the right to bear arms at a regional level as a part of a broader declaration of civil rights. Marriage: Liberal Reformists do not support government involvement in marriage. Defense: Liberal Reformists support keeping a strong regional military to protect our citizens. We realize that military intervention is sometimes necessary to protect our people. Privacy: Liberal Reformists are against dragnet surveillance and DNA databases of our citizens. We support strict restrictions on the law enforcement and intelligence communities to protect the privacy rights of our people. We also support regulations mandating that websites, such as Google, provide a high-visibility opt-out option for any tracking performed on the website. Edited by Belmaria, Apr 13 2014, 02:19 PM.

This brings tears of happiness to my eyes. If only the real world could enact these ideals. As long as the energy and environmental policies don't for a tragedy of the commons on the regional level, this is a utopia. |

After looking at what's out there, I think this is where I'll hang my hat. |

Fantastic! I'm glad we are getting support from such great nations! Also, we need to nominate our cabinet for the coming election. We need a: - President - VP - PM - Deputy PM - Cabinet of four ministers Now, I know we don't have that many nations in our region currently, let alone in our party, so for now I think President will do. But we need to keep our minds open for the future, when we will need to nominate the rest of our cabinet. Anyway, does anyone want to run? |

Are you against running, Belmaria? You've done a lot of work to get this nation going, so being our party's first nominee and hopefully first president seems like a good move. |

I would like to join this party. If we're short on members for the Cabinet, we could always reach out to other parties to fill the remaining positions. |

@Schaesberg: I will run if people wish, but I would rather be our speaker or PM. I think either you or Netonia would be good candidates for president though. @Anteridia: Welcome aboard! And I agree about the cabinet ministers, but we should be careful which parties we ally with. Also, we should be prepared to share our cabinet with another party in case we have to form a coalition government. |
