The concept of the senate is still a good one. Its execution, evidentially, is not. Does that mean we should abolish it? I dont think so. I think we need to reform it so that is serves its purpose. Pretty much every democracy in the world has several bodies of government where bills need to go throu... |

Huh, I hope maybe someone else with more knowledge comes into this thread and helps out. It seems so strange that they are supposed to be another part of our government that basically mediates the laws that come from the house but yet they can be whipped by the very people the laws came from? And th... |

I can see the screen door opening out, seems peculiar to me that an exterior door opens towards the outside. I am trying to think back to every house I have lived in and cannot remember one where it opens to the outside. I say forget the doorknob just pull it out and just reverse it  |

Wow, lots of hot air about door knobs. So what, levers make more sense and are becoming the common thing anyway. Are your liberties really deprived because a new home can't be built with knobs instead of levers. If they're becoming more common anyways, why is it so necessary to force them on people... |

I get that the PM appoints the Senators, I get that the PM USUALLY appoints people who are in line with the parties train of thought. What I dont get is, why are these Senators listening to any party? Why are they towing party lines? I dont understand. Isnt a simple solution to keep the 'sober secon... |

The party is still fairly "new" as it were. I would suspect their platform to change quite a bit from now till then. Im just surprised when people advocate for a party that doesnt really have an identity yet. Not saying its a bad thing, just surprised. |

It is a sad sight. I cannot believe he still has people behind him and I cannot believe how arrogant he is for staying in office at all. No matter the case, once you start to embarrass the city you are supposed to be serving, seriously, its time to go. |

Ah I see. It appeared that you were saying that you did not know which site it was from, not what the link to the post was.
My apologies. |
