Apolytonian Abolitionist Front

[Thud]

The Senate of Apolytonia just passed a bill endorsing a government policy of perpetual slavery! The bill does not have a clear majority, however, and it is my belief that with more organized opposition, action can be taken to reverse this perverse decision! Speak your support here, and the President, seeing our strength, may decide to veto this atrocity!

[GodKing]

I fully support Freedom

[Mr Mayor]

Give me 3 Good Reasons why we should abolish slavery and i may change my atitude towards the issue.

This comming from someone foolish enough to lampoon his posts with the SMAC UN faction leaderhead. Everybody knows that University is the way to go. Love da patch!

1- Slavery is morally wrong (seriously! )
2- In RL, slavery is economically silly (not very productive), and in our game, they produce less than a free worker (a half, to be exact)
3- we are the most powerful civ of the game. We can spend a few lytons.

[Hot Mustard]

I demand that the diligent workers formerly dedicated to improving the lands of her late highness, Joan of Arc, be freed! They committed no crimes against Apolyton, yet they have been working as slaves for centuries! Let them return to their former lands of Old France to reunite with relatives and loved ones. Also consider that their incorporation into the cities will foster much needed growth and production to the cities that the Apolyton forces to savagely sacked.

Free the slaves! (Especially French ones) !

Arnelos is DIA is it not?

Does the DIA have a stance?

Can Parties become relevant?


Mss

[Mr Mayor]

where will we put them after they are freed? in our city's which are purly apolitonian, or citys were there own race exist?

[Kuciwalker]

BURN THE HERETICS! THE SLAVES WERE MADE TO SERVE US!

[Mr Mayor]

IAM CONVINCED!!! FREE THE SLAVES!!!!! Liberty for all!!!
Slavery is evil weather it be on the fields and plains of the our world or on the streams of data that is apolyton!
Will the cruelty ever stop! Not until the abolitionist rise up and take control of this country region by region , square by square
and free the slaves in the regions where they work hard without pay but only with pain. The beatings must stop! What does our president have to say about this matter. Is he a freedom fighter or a murderer?!


I used to think that treating slaves humainly was posible. But from as any man can see this cant be done.

skywalker "BURN THE HERETICS! THE SLAVES WERE MADE TO SERVE US!"
Hot_Enamel "Think of the Slave Handlers ?And the Whip Makers? Keep the slaves as free labour."

SO freedom must be achived by any means nescicary!


(wouldnt it be intersting if could actually have a civil war in the game )

[Kuciwalker]

Oh, so your plotting a revolution are you ?

[Mr Mayor]

Maybe



use the force skywalker , see the truth , slavery is wrong you know it to be true. wise i am , see the future you must, understand someday, u will.

Clouds everyting, the ming side does, soon see the truth will you!

[Thud]

Arnelos is DIA. The DIA doesn't have an official stance that I'm aware of; however, many members, being hippy and all, oppose slavery...

Parties can always become relevant.

[Spiffor]

As a proud member of the DIA, I strongly oppose the bill which passed. In there, I explained lengthy why integrating slaves first will be very useful to our economy, and why integrating nationals first would hurt our economy, and partly deprive us of the demographic boom we need.

Also, the bill completely lacks of flexibility. As long as there is ANY national worker out in the fields, it will be IMPOSSIBLE to integrate any slave, regardless of the situation.

I'm sorry to all those who oppose slavery for moral reasons, because I only speak about economic rationale, but I want to prove integrating slaves first is economically rational

[Kuciwalker]

No, spiffor, you proved that integrating slaves in economically rational. That's true. What is not true is that integrating them FIRST is rational.
