Anti-Consolidation

The political and corporate machine of Atlasia has prevented anyone from getting ahead unless they have approval from the country club. The free market has been devastated by monopoly and oligopolies that serve to undercut competition so they can screw consumers.

No one has done more to combat monopolies then myself and the Federalist Party. We fought for competitive healthcare exchanges and passed 21st Century Glass-Steagall to reduce monopolization in the financial sector.

The elevation of YoungTexan to the senate was not on "merits". He was elevated to the senate because the power brokers in the Federalist party wanted to reward him for his loyalty to their corporate machine. YoungTexan is a bombastic buffoon who rewarded his buddies in the Texas oil industry with rivers of cash flows during his tenure as Secretary of Interior. Who knows what lobbyists he will lavishly reward as Senator of the Great Southern region. He could have at least rewarded his region in Lincoln.

If we have an oil industry lobby, they are woefully ineffective considering they couldn't stop the carbon tax.

Oakvale, while not a man I agree with very often, was shut down in his presidential campaign in a coordinated effort by the Federalist party because he dared to threaten the internal power structure.

The October primary campaign was unfortunate in the depths that it reached and I really wish that it could have been avoided. But I have long made it my policy to protect Federalists from unfair smearing or targeting. This was consistently applied by the leadership, when it benefited Oakvale in early December.

Someone should absolutely start an Atlasian oil lobby. I'm not sure how that would work in practice, but it would be very interesting from a gameplay standpoint.

It is not that complicated.

1. Start a thread
2. Create a List of demands/priorities
3. Get a large number of people to sign up
4. Leverage the membership to force action by politicians

Essentially, a pressure group.

I did it in 2013/2014, with The Counter Movement of the Flying Squirrel in reaction to the National Movement Aliya Mustafina. lol dated references to the 2012 Olympics
