Pacific Lt. Gov. Race Surprisingly Competitive
by South Park Conservative

   A recent NWA poll shows that the race for Pacific Lt. Governor is much tighter than one would expect. Despite the Jesus Christ Party dominating the region, Ebowed is tied with Alexander Hamilton with 43% each. 17% are Undecided. To be fair, there will likely be a large amount of zombies come election day to help Ebowed. If turnout is lower than expected, then Alexander Hamilton has great potential for an upset.

Actually we are tied. Just like to clarify.

I have declared my candidacy for re-election as governor.

[Хahar 🤔]

Hamilton is the first member of the RPP to ever mount a run for office in the Pacific region.

Stop lying.

The only negative reaction seemed to come from released released from prison and a mental institution and perennial election loser Xahar, who claim that since he could not win the Pacific no one could.

Ah, which institution?

     We never really recognized coffeebeans as a member of the RPP, as we were rather convinced that he was a sock before he even joined the RPP (we also had forgotten about him since about five months have now passed since he was banned in that particular incarnation). While DWTL's statement was incorrect in that coffeebeans/Ogis had already mounted a campaign under our banner, it seems overmuch to call him a liar over something that is easily subject to being forgotten.

He doesn't count. I'm referring to Ronnie.

     When did this happen? I remember Ronnie requesting that CultureKing appoint him to the then vacant Lt. Governorship, but not Ronnie actually running. I could probably look it up, though.

NWA Interview with Senator Afleitch
by South Park Conservative

What do you view as the most important issue facing Atlasia right now?

The economy first and second. Atlasia has often been governed in isolation from world events and from the effects of the economy both good and bad. This had to change and is has; the Senate has a new vision facing up to the economic reality We have to pull the economy back up, we have to humanise the capitalist system which is the international benchmark for democracy and economic growth world-wide.

What legislation have you introduced or do you plan to introduce to help the economy?

I want to get the Senate talking about tax as much as I want them to be talking about spending which is why I introduced the Income Tax Reduction Bill. We cut and reconstructed Social Security Tax and this was passed without too much opposition. However I understand the Senate's concern with further tax cuts.

The main issue is how we choose to stimulate the economy; whether through increased funding (the stimulus bill) , through cuts in taxation and whether any stimulus should be short term or long term. It's an ideological battle and it's not new. The first indicator that something, anything is wrong or right with an economy is consumer spending. Long term tax cuts, which I have pressed for are in line with permanent income theory; temporary increases in income will not lead to significant increases in consumption. In the case of permanent tax cuts ( which are imposed on the longer term) then consumption is increased by a significant amount.

It is vital that the Senate is cautious in pushing for large increases in government spending to stimulate short term demand as the result of a sharp economic contraction. Government spending and intervention over areas that it can control does not address the real causes of the weak economy; which the government cannot and should not control. The economy been pulled down by slump in the housing market, a financial crisis and high energy prices and exacerbated by the expectation that future income and employment growth will be low.

A short-run government spending stimulus will not jump-start the economy alone.

What has been your biggest accomplishment in your most recent Senate term?

While I am proud of my measure to cut social security taxes for hard working families, for me the Establishment of Social and Economic Development Zones Act is the greatest piece of legislation I have introduced and has the most potential. It's such a simple bill designed to allow down at heel communities that have been neglected recession after recession to be competative through targeted suspended and decreased taxation. This allows them become more attractive to private enterprise. Any programme of this nature needs to be as local as possible which is why I gave the regions the power to locate SEDZ's and power over improving infrastructure.

What do you have to offer to each of the major parties?

That's a tough one. I have, to the best of my ability, legislated in accordance with my own political beliefs. To the RPP and conservatives I point to my record of tax cuts and regional empowerment; in the SEDZ bill as mentioned and in an amendment giving regional authorities power over health provision in the health bill currently on the floor. To the JCP and to liberals I will cite my support of the health bill; to me I'm following in the tradition of great European conservatives (yes even Thatcher) and progressives of all colours in supporting this measure and I congratulate Senator Fritz for tabling the bill and shining a light on that 'elephant in the room' that Atlasia had ignored for too long. To the DA; my friends we work well with each other, we are getting things done and I will continue to support our aim of 'reaching out from the centre ground.' And to the LNF? Thank goodness you've arrived!

Thank you for participating in this interview.

You're welcome!

Atlasia Divided Over Senate Legislation
by South Park Conservative

   Recent legislation on the floor of the Senate is highly divisive in the minds of Atlasians. Only 52% of Atlasians supported Afleitch's Income Tax Reduction Bill, Purple State's School Standards Reform Bill, and Fritz's Atlasian National Healthcare Bill. Maxque's 2009 Atlasian Relief and Recovery Bill received slightly higher support with 57%, but it is still highly divisive.

[Lief 🗽]

Yeah, I'm not entirely sure how something with 57% support can be considered "highly divisive."

Just curious, when you type comments like this, do you honestly believe you aren't being incredibly arrogant?
