Amendments

Repeal the amendment “All law-abiding citizens of Kalpetia have the inalienable right to life, and …”
All law-abiding citizens of Kalpetia have the inalienable right to life, and the right to use said life with as much freedom as is permissible within the governance of society. This includes, especially, the Right of Man to practice his own religion as he wishes, so long as it does not itself violate the Law. The government of Kalpetia shall, at no time, take any action that could infringe upon these rights; Whether this be by nature of euthanasia, abortion, martial law, or otherwise, any government that takes such an action shall be considered in violation of the Sacred Rights of Man. It must also be established that any man who would try to strip another of his or her Sacred Rights must be subject to tenfold the harm he may do to another. For God made man in His own image, and those who kill on earth must be killed on earth, so help us God. This Amendment we do write, censor, and sign in good will, with faith that God may help us act it out in righteousness. Amen.

Proposer's case

This change is necessary for a more democratic Kalpetia. We no longer have a monarchy, so the name "The Republic of Kalpetia" should replace "The Kingdom of Kalpetia." The number of seats in the National Assembly and the Senate has been realistically reorganized. Normally, the Senate should have fewer seats than the National Assembly. The number of seats in the National Assembly has been increased to improve representation. Furthermore, to prevent any party controlling the Consulate and the Cabinet from engaging in authoritarian actions again, to ensure no party's activities are restricted, and to prevent the arrest of any political figure, the powers of regulating political parties and the Chief of Police have been entrusted to impartial and professional bureaucrats. We will not allow authoritarianism. For a stronger Kalpetia, let's say "Yes."

“We are deeply concerned about the provisions regarding the police and the oversight of political parties. To us, this appears to be an attempt to decentralize the state power structure, masked by the high-profile "Republic" amendment. Changes to the oversight authority for the police and political parties will result in accountability for errors being diffused across multiple layers of the bureaucratic system.”
