If the native tribes that originally lived on them have been wiped out, what would happen to the land?  How would claims by multiple tribes be settled.

Fear not!  A story from the SoIA's Office is a'comin'!

Make sure to talk aabout unionized park workers and the fact that's we are leasing these lands to natural gas companies under contract. And have fun writing a story about a law that never passed.

Noted.  Now, where can I find the entire text of the bill?  I can't find it on the wiki.

I need to know what it entails to write an article about this entire situation.

The State cannot contract, any "contract" on the part of the State is theft.

Of course, I don't think you should write an article until cinyc makes a ruling. Can't you pick on a lesser region in the meantime? Tongue

I looked through the thread and apparently wormy quoted the entire bill in its one-sentence glory two pages back.  Wonderful.  And no, I would like to set up the consequences of this bill hypothetically passing and maybe introduce the voices of Native Americans, park rangers, and others who would be affected by the bill.  As a backdrop to the court case.

As the veto override continues, I believe we should debate impeaching those who are abusing the top two offices to carry out an assault on the region. I just love how Ghostwhite can't open voting booths but he's right there doing the bidding everytime one of these stupid laws like the Un-Stealing Act or Nullification Resolution are questioned.

Funny that I would, Carl.

Napoleon may wish to study the book "How To Win Friends And Influence People" by Dale Carnegie, since he seems right now to be rather intent on torpedoing his Senate prospects.  In any case, I would like to know what charges either I or Ghost_white would be brought up on for impeachment, since neither of us has committed any crime beyond being of a different party affilation and ideology than the speaker, and also having a greater level of respect for constitutional norms than he.  Such an act would be obvious to any Northeast voter for exactly what it is - partisan hackery.

Partisan hackery is your administration in whole, and you can be impeached for any reason.
What the Governor and yourself attempted earlier was in violation of our Constitution.

Welcome to my time in the Assembly, enjoy.

It's all about turning the region into extremist libertarian 'paradise' ie Anarchy... basically the laws of the jungle.

If they want compromise, they can work with us. If they want war, they will lose.

P.s. what do either of those stupid laws have to do with anarchy or libertarianism?

The particularly polluted stream of 'libertarianism' - "taxation is theft"  - the state should not own anything... that's how it fits.

Giving away land for free is theft from the taxpayer. Anyone subscribing to that particular style of libertarian needs to get their head out of the sand and their fingers out of the ears.

I just don't understand why these dumb laws mean so much to wormy that he is willing to make a mockery of our region and constitution to preserve them. I thought we were working together pretty well until this whole mess started.

He doesn't do compromise... unless that compromise ends up with him getting what he wants.... also, I don't think their heads are stuck in the sand... think darker.

Uh, no.  The land was taken by force from its original owners, and therefore the thing which would involve the least moral turpitude is to return it to the legal heirs of the original owners.  Tax moeny is also taken by force from taxpayers, however this happened after the land was taken by force, and conflicting grievances ought to be settled on the principle of "oldest first;" especially since said taxpayers are a party in the first grievance (they are living on land taken by force from the indigenous peoples of the area).  BTW, does this mean you are retroactively against the Homestead Act?  I'd give you points for being a consistently good Democrat.

I just don't understand why these dumb laws mean so much to Napoleon that he is willing to make a mockery of our region and constitution to get rid of them. I thought we were working together pretty well until this whole mess started.  (Do note that it is you, rather than I, who initiated this entire dispute, I was merely attempting to be helpful).

And Polnut is a fine one to talk about compromise, given that he opposed every single thing I ever introduced, even when my bills were "moderate," had broad popular support, and required him to be a hypocrite to oppose them.  (There was one in which he listed a laundry list of "concerns" - all of which I had already specifically addressed in the bill beforehand.  When I and others pointed this out to him, he declared he would oppose it anyway).
