The British Stratocracy wrote:First: The Public is, by my way of thinking, the population of the nation. It is "other people". Civilians do have less rep in terms of political freedoms (Though I would like it on record that in terms of civil rights they are equal in everyway). As the Stratocracy has a set view on what is the public, it removes the problem of its broadness. Once a citizen has served in the public forces and left, they are not a civvy. In fact they will never be thought of as a civvy again and are now vets, able to vote for head of state and the middle house. They serve the interests of public yes, in the way of health care, defence, justice, engineering etc. but not the personal interests of the public.
secondly: The differant opinions are still there. Just because one as served and earned the vote doesn't mean he or she will be only right or left. Within the Stratocracy there are Officers in Gov that are right leaning/left leaning and the citizen who has earned their vote will vote for their prefered Officer. Read our factbook, it will answer many of the questions and arguments.
PS: A very good argument you put forward, I was impressed.
OK, that clarified a few things.
