Razze and Mr. R are correct, of course. There is literally no evidence that dual officeholding has harmed the game whatsoever, and reams of examples to the contrary.

So I ask again:

I challenge the supporters of this bill to submit an actual instance when this republic has been demonstrably weakened by the pluralist policy.

I'd still like to hear an answer to this as well, since not a single person answered it the last time this bill was on the floor.

You know what, you’re not entirely wrong, but there’s no evidence that suggest dual office holding has helped the game either. I’m extremely concerned about the separation of powers and activity as well. This is a massive issue that needs to be dealt with.

There's tons of evidence where dual officeholding has been beneficial, especially in times of low activity in the game.

Well I disagree but I appreciate that you are doing something in good faith.

Does everyone feel like there has been enough debate? If so, can I motion for a final vote?

Seems to be like it. I'll go ahead and take that as a motion and leave 24 hours for objections.
