What are your thoughts on the caucus structure, ie. limiting it to one party, listing them on the ballot, etc.? Do you find the caucuses cumbersome?
The purpose of the caucus legislation, as originally proposed, was to encourage factional division within the JCP and RPP so as to facilitate the major parties' fission into more ideologically specific groups. That was clearly accomplished. So long as the caucus legislation represented an attempt to bring about the specific goal of game reform, it was a legitimate and worthwhile enterprise. If the current amendments to the CIFA were written with a similar goal in mind, I would very much like to hear what that goal is. Otherwise, I favor the repeal of the CIFA and the severing of all government ties with caucuses. If members of a party, or multiple parties, wish to form an informal grouping, that is their right and prerogative. I do not think that the government should grant official recognition to these caucuses any longer because the legislation which authorized them in the first place has exhausted its purpose. Besides, I would appreciate less clutter on ballots and in the New Register Thread.
I will, of course, abide by the Senate's will and make sure the laws are enforced and obeyed, whatever its will may be.
