Do You Like Money? (Or, the Capital Party thread)

[Anodyne]

Basically, LSD is against all atrocities, was the UN chapter repealed or not (and we will do anything it needs to make sure that the chapter will never be repealed).

But should we come across a situation that we have to start pondering our values, we will do it wisely and with a good thought.

[Pandemoniak]

The CCCP values happiness and tends to Eudaimonia. Therefore, we think atrocities are atrocities, and... well, you know what the Party means, dont you pigs ?

[Wojit]

Considering the crippling economic sanctions caused by atrocities, and the potential damage to business relations, I except Mr. President would agree with me when I assume that The Capital Party would be strongly against our faction commiting any atrocities, and considering our possible vunribilities if the charter is overturned, I feel we'd be against that too.

[Mr. President]

Atrocities are distasteful to me in general. Edit: And Wojit speaks for the party line in saying that they would increase the colony's vulnerability.

Mr. President, from the mid-game on P4 is also in favour of free market. In the initial expansion phase however we stand for Planned. What is your view on that matter? FM no matter what or a more moderate approach?

Surprisingly, I find that improper use of the Free Market leads to economic ruination. For that reason, I am willing to accept a period of Planned economics in the early years of our colony, but will push for a switch to Free Market as soon as it is feasible.

Dear Mr President, I'm glad to tell you that the P4 concur to this policy.

...as does LSD (although with the aforementioned Green aspects)

[Maniac]

What about a grand CP-LSD-P4 front???

[Mr. President]

Sounds interesting but I can't reply for certain right now. I need to think about some electoral issues first.

[Method]

what's your policy on future societies and values?

[Mr. President]

Values: Wealth (preferable) or Knowledge.

Future Society: Cybernetic (preferable) or Eudaimonic.

I suppose this is the "Builder" party. The aim is to catapult the faction to the stars on the back of a powerful open economy and technology base.

[Anodyne]

M@ni@c> Now, that isn't an impossible thought, but there are some aspects (like Green issues, for example) that I'm afraid we might not reach consensus on. But I'm on for co-operation.

[Voltaire]

IMO cooperation is key, it would be possible to create a coalition government seeing as most parties right now are quite small.

[Maniac]

I indeed hope for coalition. One party ruling would be very boring I think.

[Method]

cooperation or merger between P4 and capital party seems quite possible if we can agree on values and future society

[Archaic]

IMO, Wealth/Knowledge are quite compatable, especially in early game, where there's likely to be a significant gap between the aquisition of Knowledge after wealth. In the late game perhaps we may have a difference of opinion, but this game could quite likely be over by then.
