    Business owners have the long term goal of having their business run by other people while they collect the profits because it is THIER business. Their employees didn't put up the funding money, didn't start from the bottom. They were hired on and paid to do their job, they shouldn't just be given all the profits to someone elses business.

    The majority of employers did not even start from the bottom considering that their wealth was inherited from their ancestors. 

     

    Their business is based on exploiting the labour power of working-class citizens for profit, without even contributing more than a small percentage of towards the business. Within a Socialist state, one is not expected to be wealthy in order to contribute their inventions or discovery towards a system. Instead, values shall be determined based on one's ideas rather than their wealth.

    Your logic makes absolutely zero sense.

    It's not the workers that take the risk of creating a start-up, putting the money up-front to support and fund an idea that can potentially make a lot of money. This idea that the workers should be given an equal distribution for taking a ridiculously smaller risk is going to kill innovation, and the motivation to create something new and revolutionary.

     

    This is where Capitalism is an actively better system of economics in which people can thrive on their own accord, with the will to be successful in a free and open market.

    One presumes that capitalism is the direct cause towards innovation when the majority of inventions and discoveries were conducted due to pure curiosity combined with the application of the scientific method. One produces such arguments with the idea that the Soviets did not invent the first cellular phone, did not transport the first living creature into space, and did not launch the first orbital frequency-based satellite into space. Innovation is determined by one's curiosity and labour, not "risking one's wealth for profit". In fact, discoveries are often stifled within a capitalist system if such ideals do not contribute towards profit, which results in inventing cellular phone applications via micro-transactions rather than legalizing one out of the numerous cures for cancer.  

    History has proven that capitalism does not promote a meritocratic system considering that the income-inequality gap between the rich and the poor has increased dramatically since the 1960s through the formation of Neo-Liberal economic globalization. 

    The risk would not even exist within a socialist system considering that industries would be formed according to the needs and desires of the people. In fact, through Universal education, skilled labourers with critical minds shall be more likely to contribute towards inventions and discoveries in order to enhance the human development of humanity rather than utilizing one half of their entire life selling their labour power to a bourgeois-C.E.O. that merely profits from one's labour.

    "Makes zero sense"...

    An individual labouring for fourty years in order to merely attain the basic necessities to life is a greater risk than any investment conducted by a C.E.O.


  3. Capitalist logic: I've produced an idea that involves producing a shirt with a logo on it. Thus, I deserve the majority of the wealth that is generated by my employee's labour. You know, the black shirt with the symbol of a check-mark? I had invented the check-mark. Thus, the inventor of this idea deserves to profit from the labour of it's workers, even though the workers had produced 100% of these shirts.

    Communist/Socialist logic: The workers produced 100% of the goods and services. Thus, the goods and services must be distributed equally amongst the workers.

    If it wasn't for those CEOs no one would have a job. We're not going to take from the entrepreneurs and give to people who won't do for themselves.

    According to one's logic, a job would not exist without a C.E.O. Thus, nurses, doctors, Law enforcement officers etc... exist due to bourgeois-capitalists rather than the state.

    Ideals could be produced by the people, alongside with the commodities and services, indicating that it should be owned by the people.

    Hypothetically, if a child trick-or-treats for candy within it's mother's bucket, the mother should possess the Right to own 100% of the child's candy, correct? Not at all. The labourer deserves to reap the rewards of their labour, not the opposite.


  5. May one please share the link of each and every political party's main topic within the beginning of the thread? Or, does one intend to produce a topic that involves producing a summary of each and every single party within a separate post in the future?

    We are currently planning a couple of events for the parties to engage in, including a debate that we are setting up between parties, more information will be released soon about that.

    It would be recommended that one produces the topic by themselves by interviewing each and every single party candidate via a message within the inbox in order to ensure that the discussion remains civil and in order.

    For example:

    Message "The Unified Party" in order to attain their stance on a specific topic. Afterwards, copy and paste "The Unified Party's" response to The People's Revolutionary Party's e-mail account. The P.R.P. shall respond to the message in order for you to copy-paste both opinions on to "The Hamilton Party's" e-mail etc... 

    Afterwards, copy-paste the entire discussion within a post, identical to a news reporter that combines a collection of statements from numerous parties into a video or article.

    The method will prevent individuals from spamming the topic with unnecessary spam while ensuring that each platform is represented during the discussion. 
     

    Merely a suggestion.

    --------------

    Another example:

    You: "The Unified Party, what is your stance on abortion?"

    Unified Party: *Detailed response*

    You to P.R.P.: "The Unified Party states that it shall _____ on the topic of abortion. What is your opinion on The Unified Party's stance on abortion?

    P..R.P.: *Detailed response*

    You to Hamilton Party: It appears that the P.R.P. and U.P. possess differing views on the topic of abortion. Do you possess any thoughts on this matter? Any critiques? What is your opinion on the Right to possess and consume marijuana?

    Hamilton party: *Detailed Response*

    You to P.R.P.: "The Hamilton Party states ____ regarding your policy on abortion. In the process, The Hamilton Party recommends that marijuana should be ____... any thoughts?

    etc...

    Each response could be highlighted based on the colour of the party. I.E. The P.R.P.'s statements would be highlighted in red while the other parties would be highlighted in their respective colour.


  7. Subjects shall be capable of examining the political, economic, and legal platform of "The People's Revolutionary Party" within the link that is located within my signature. 

    Simplified:

    1. Universal food, clothing, shelter, energy, healthcare, education, and transportation for working-class citizens.
    2. Each and every single citizen shall possess the Right to bear arms, with free training and supplies.
    3. A Constitutional direct-democracy, which is a political system that is governed by the people.

    4. A judicial court system that is represented by the people.

    5. Legalization of marijuana

    6. The Right to overthrow the government through peaceful or violent means if the representative infringes the Constitution, prior to being convicted within "The People's Constitutional Court".

    7. Anti-Discrimination Laws that provide individuals with such benefits, despite their race, gender, age, sex, sexual preference, mental disability, physical disability, religion etc... unless such ideals results in infringing the criminal code of Identity Island.

    Don't fall prey to the sleight of hand tactics being utilized by other "fundamentalists" parties. You do NOT require high tax rates for a safe community. The citizens have a RIGHT to protect themselves with firearms. Business' shouldn't be taxed more because they make more. We believe in flat rate taxes across the board, unlike the majority of our competition that want to increase taxes dramatically dependent on your yearly income. The successful shouldn't have to pay for the unsuccessful, nor will they under the Unified Party.

    The People's Revolutionary Party argues that the hard-working labour-class deserves to attain the basic necessities to life rather than providing C.E.O.s, whom do not produce a SINGLE good and service within the company, with an extraordinary amount of wealth for merely forming an idea.

    The P.R.P. does not argue that "unsuccessful people do not deserve wealth". The P.R.P. argues that the PRODUCERS deserve to seize the means of production and claim ownership, as a collective, of what is rightfully theirs... their production.

    The average C.E.O. will profit from the blood, sweat, tears, and labour of the working-class citizen while the average working-class citizen will struggle to survive within "The Unified Party"'s political system. Why should subjects that sit within an office and engage in business meetings profit from the labour of the average working-class citizen when the average working-class citizen produces 100% of the commodities and services within society? It is an exploited system that must be abolished.

    Workers of the world, unite under The People's Revolutionary Party!


  9. The People's Revolutionary Party values the separation of Church and State. In the process, the P.R.P. opposeses the party's pro-Capitalist policies which contradicts the teachings of Christianity.

    The P.R.P. is anticipating the upcoming election. Although the P.R.P. disagrees with the theocratic capitalist government proposed by The Roman Catholic Party, the organization is willing to compete against such a political party in a fair and respectful manner manner.

    - Damien Malik, Founder and Representative of The People's Revolutionary Party.

    I'm so fucked, I have a job that requires me to work 6-8 weeks on, 6 weeks off and the whole time at work there is no access to internet.

    "Deep sea fisherman, FML".

    One cannot simply log in ONCE during the six weeks? I.E. Logging on for five minutes in order to pay one's bills.

    Hello, while I personally in real life don't identify my worldview with the ideological affiliation this organization seems to have, and to be honest, dislike it, I really like on the other hand the idea and thought put behind the structure of the organization and hierarchy of the ranks within it. Overall it gives me an impression that this mafia has a potential for a very interesting experience and gameplay, thus I would like to make an exception and become a part of this organization.

     

    Honestly, I have no clear view of what I would like to be trying to accomplish within the game, what role/position I would prefer to obtain in this organization (assuming of course, that I would be accepted into it :) ), as it's still unknown, what range of tools or means a player could precisely use in order to achieve certain goals. One thing that I know is that the criminal part of the game seems the most appealing and interesting to me, while it doesn't necessarily have to be a literal criminal aspect, like killing, robbing, etc. It also can refer to just behaving in way that is generally accepted as evil or morally wrong, in order to achieve as much of the profit/advantage over other people at the expense of those people, of course. If this would require more subtle/intellectually engaging activity, it would be even more favorable and interesting for me.

     

    Tell me, if you would be interested in me joining your organization.

     

    Also, are you from EU or NA? I am myself from EU and would also prefer a "mafia/guild/organization" from the close time zones, but, if it's not the case, we can probably always work something out.

     

    Best regards,

    Hohenzollern

    The organization is situated within North America. However, subjects from Europe and even Australia had managed to transition into members of the organization in order to ensure that the organization remains functional 24 hours per day.

     

    One could engage in numerous roles as a criminal of the organization:

    1. Thief (generates revenue)
    2. Armed robbery (generates revenue)

    3. Street racer (generates revenue)

    4. Narcotics producer/transporter/distributor (generates revenue)
    5. Arms manufacturer/transporter/distributor (generates revenue)

    6. Assassin (Objective-based yet profitable)

    7. Extortionist (Identical to the mafia that would extort shares or wealth from businesses or individuals. The subject may also intimidate witnesses in for legal or political purposes)
    8. Recruiter (recruits subjects into the mob)

    9. Guard (Guard regions or territorial land of the mafia)

    10. Guerrilla (Revolutionary invasions)
    etc...

    May one please message my account in order to discuss these matters in great detail?

    So, actually, if you want to keep your house, you need to come on every week?

    Let's say that you are on a holiday to the middle of nowhere for an extended period of time, without the ability of accessing a computer. That means that you lose your appartement/house, right? And do also lose your furniture layout? And what if you have a two bedroom appartement/house? Will then the other person pay the rent if there is one?

    Thanks,

    Based on my memory, the developers stated that subjects shall be capable of maintaining their items during an eviction of their household considering that it would be unfair for players to lose their items for being inactive. In other terms, 100% of one's furniture and accessories shall be imported to one's inventory. However, one shall lose an extraordinary amount of wealth due to lacking the ability to pay off one's debts to their land-owner.

    Perhaps the ever increasing gap in the polls is stressing him out. Maybe he should be removed from the polls and not be taken seriously with that kind of behavior! With these kinds of outbursts, what can we expect with him in office? 

    Within the real world, a political party is expected to possess a Constitution and a platform in order to be accepted within a nation-state. Thus, "The Union Party" did not meet the qualifications to function as a political party at that time, until the subject had decided to apply policies to the organization.

    Hamilton, on the other hand, remains qualified to run for an election despite his behaviours considering that the party had managed to at least fulfill the minimum requirements towards being registered within Identity Island.

    The problem has been fixed, sorry for any inconvenience this might have caused.

    Thank you very much, good sir. It was a bit strange for one to witness a party, that consists of zero platforms or policies, function as the dominating party within the game.

    It is honestly appreciated.

  15. It is such a shame that "The Unified Party" had attained the majority of the votes due to their appeal to the "apolitical" community.

    I am already predicting that subjects shall not take the political aspect of the game very seriously.


  16. The People's Revolutionary Party is currently shiring subjects to fulfill numerous roles within the political organization: 

    Roles:

    1. Member or Representative of the Party:
    - Department of Homeland Security
    - Department of Economics
    - Department of Industry
    - Department of Agriculture
    - Department of Internal Security
    - Department of Inrelligence

    - Department of Diplomacy
    etc...

    2. Non-politcal-based roles:

    1. Distributor of goods
    2. Surveyor

    3. Driver/transporter

    4. Reporter

    5. Propaganda specialist

    6. Security guards

    etc...

     

    If one is interested, subjects are capable of listing their current career in order to apply their career to the organization.


  17. It would be an ethical idea for the map to consist of two different types of hotels within each city considering that politicians and numerous other travelers might be expected to arrive at a location during the night in order to attend an important meeting or venue that exists within the city during the morning, rather than traveling from "city A" to "city B" early in the morning.


  18. Individuals are capable of hiring a civil lawyer in order to charge the subject for infringing a contract agreement within the civil courts, resulting in a judge and/or jury (usually judge) to determine the outcome of a case. Hypothetically, if the accused subject refuses to pay the fee, Law enforcement officers would be obligated to incarcerated the accused subject for committing an act of theft.
