Our manifesto

An union is defined as the action of joining together, an alliance is defined as an association for mutual benefit, but a coalition is defined as an alliance for action. Therefore as a Coalition of Workers and Farmers our purpose is for action with our ideology firmly fixed on the principle of legitimacy. It is fundamental that political parties must be the legitimate representatives of the constituents that vote on its list. If democracy is supposed to be a system for people power, we cannot say it is democratic when senators stand by a foreign ideology rather than with their voters. Senators owe it to their constituents not the other way around.

As such we define our party ideology around how we help those we represent, namely workers and farmers. For this reason we endorse pragmatic centrist economic policies, because the interests of workers and farmers are not ideological like those on the left and right are. The main goal is the maximization of comfort and security for workers and farmers. This brings us to our second principle: communitarianism. Since workers and farmers are clearly a community, not a category for isolated individuals, we see communitarianism as the best way by which to represent them and identify their interests. For example, an individual farmer may not seem so different from anyone else, but the aspects of his/her lifestyle that define his community, those are the characteristics that stand out. By developing policy with community in mind, we treat the average worker or farmer as he truly is. This consideration affects much of our policy, but our emphasis on a welfare state that goes further than caring for individuals is key.

So folks, what's our stance on the workers and farmers being able to defend themselves with firearms? Also, should we re-organise our party's manifestos according to the popular will?

Gun ownership should be tightly regulated, but need to allow farmers and hunters to be able to use their rifles for food.

What do you mean by the second question?

Set up a series of polls to decide our positions on the issues. No offence, MV, but thus far we haven't really been too democratic in our decision-making process.

Sure, we can do that. I'll dig up the old platform at some point and we can use that as a jumping off point.

[Maklohi Vai]

So I went searching. I thought I sent the platform in a TG at some point, but I didn't. Good news: we get to build the platform from scratch. Bad news: we have to build the platform from scratch.

Well, that's not all that bad. I think our biggest commitment should be infrastructure and business development. After all, we can't be a Workers Party without work. Schools, hospitals, roads, dams, factories, power plants, refineries. All built by the state. I think our social policies should be based off those of the Social Credit movement. All citizens of Fernao should be paid a dividend of the national budget in every year the government runs a budgetary surplus. Nothing much, just about 5 percent of the surplus is divided up, with each adult citizen receiving an equal share. More to come.

I'm absolutely in favor of infrastructure development, I think that's a great idea. As for the Social Credit movement, I'm not a fan. I think it does nothing to curb inequities within our society, and instead throws one blanket solution over many problems that in reality warrant more nuanced attention. I think that money could be better spent on more specific and targeted programs.

A valid point. Perhaps only pay the employed?
