The Office of Senator LumineVonReuental (A Farewell to the Senate)

[Southern Senator North Carolina Yankee]

So do you prefer to be boiled in oil or burned alive?

Last election was competitive enough with seven candidates, and I'm sure we will see another amusing election with the candidates that have already declared. I hope our party will be able to increase it's number of seats, and Clarence has of course my full support to get into the Senate, just like Goldwater if he chose to run again.

Just note there is presently a two candidate limit for the Federalists in the bylaws, and if three or more run, a primary will be held to select which two advance to the general election. This was enacted in the aftermath of the August elections where running three Federalists contributed to the election of three Laborite or Laborite supported candidates in the election.

Oh and before I forget,

Endorsed.

Not only did no one object, but the bill sat for 24 hours after shua responded to Superiques question so that was almost two days where no opposiiton was expressed at all, and it shocked me as well.

The vote itself, due to the speed of voting, was open for less than a day, which should be considered.

For my part, though I was probably online at some point I was tossing up my vote in my head. On the one hand I have a very deep conviction that healthcare should be free at the point of use and that market systems in it are at best inefficient and at worst immoral, but I also understood that our current healthcare system, from an in game point of view was an unclear disgrace, and this bill did make it simpler and easier to understand.

There are various ways that a region can go about having free at the point of use healthcare even within this system, its just a matter of covering the unsubsidized portion of the cost. Perhaps one of the regions will try that.
