[Forum Game] - Crisis in the Reich

[Bialaska]

For now stability is the most important thing in the Reich. Many articles are similar to our own proposal, but sadly we also believe that the chairman's proposal favors foreigners over the German people, polluting our school system.

However amendments can be made at a later time, so for now I will support such a constitution.

GM Note: Currently the Constitution proposed by the SPD has support of 135 seats out of 423, 31.91% of the National Assembly, they need at least 66.6% to pass it.

((Demonic Constitution ))

 

[Harpsichord]

I believe we must speak to the leaders of this national strike before we act. The workers are the very soul of this great nation, we should pay heed to their needs. I motion we postpone voting on a constitution until I and my fellow party members have had the chance to have a proper discussion with the strikers. As a fellow party of the people, I invite the DAP to join us in our talks with the people.

Memo from the Ministry of Defence
--Classified--​

Due to the dangerous situation posed to us in the Eastern Front, and the pressing need to defend ourselves from the forces of Russia that threaten to overwhelm us by numerical superiority alone, I hereby authorize fresh munitions, supplies, armaments and manpower to directed to the Eastern Front. These resources shall be delivered to the port of Libau, whereupon they shall be diverted and utilized as seen fit by the military command.

Needless to say all information enclosed in this memo is strictly confidential, and is not be discussed from those not involved.

Long Live Germany!

~ Karl Adolf von Arnstein, Minister of Defence

It is in my beliefs that the workers of Germany are capable of thinking for themselves - therefore I advise them to do whatever they think is right to do in this situation. I am neither condemning or propagating the strike, I am merely stating that the workers of Germany can decide what is the best course of action themselves.

-Adolf Leubner

Anton Drexler has booked a time on national radio, to address Germany's people.

"The recent strikes do no good for our nation. If anything, it damages us and weakens us. The war is still not over, there is simply a ceasefire until terms may be discussed. Destroying the German economy may cause our neighbors to see us as prey and try to take away the lands that belong to the German people!"

"I encourage you to all work hard in this trying time. It is through hard work that the future of this nation is shaped. You workers know that there are many parties in our newly formed democracy, who support the workers and their rights. A constitution has been proposed that many support, there are just some who blockade the efforts over a few minor details, because they cannot accept the new Germany. And I can tell you this, proud workers of this mighty nation, those who cannot accept the constitution are not parties for the workers, it is the parties who support the nobility and the old money."

In order to stop the insults upon the rightful German Monarchist cause and my person, I have modified Herr Lachenmayer's proposal in order to more adequately sate both monarchists and leftists: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1RbSYSMYtwQO12DY2bVN0v_Sr4IWf7JdB3EMIBPPIpP4/edit?usp=sharing

I also suggest that the German Code of Rights (which was presented earlier) which is as follows:

The German Code of Rights

I. All Germans are equal in the eyes of God, the Government, and the Supreme Court
II. All Germans are entitled to wages needed to eat atleast one (1) meal a day
III. All Germans are able to express themselves politically and religiously without violent recourse
IV. All Germans are able to gather and protest without violent recourse
V. All Germans are able to gain legal counsel when arrested
VI. All Germans are allowed to know the reasoning for their arrest
VIII. All Germans are free from unlawful seizure of personal property
IX. All Germans are free to exercise their religious beliefs without violent recourse

be included within this constitution in order to properly protect the people from whatever loopholes may be found within the constitution's extensive articles providing for the protection of the German people from unlawful exploitation.

~Karl Helfferich, German Minister for Economics​

 

[baboushreturns]

I endorse these changes to the constitution and now hope that all parties left and right can rally behind it. I also support The German Code of Rights that is one step in the right direction for Germany as a whole.

 

[unmerged(271387)]

I support the proposal of Herr Helfferich.

 

[Imperator1993]

As the chancellor I support the German Code of Rights and I ask the other members of my government and party to do the same.

~Chancellor Graf von Murda und zu Hellefurst

 

[Bialaska]

I propose the following change to the code of rights:

The German Code of Rights

I. All Germans are equal in the eyes of God, the Government, and the Supreme Court
II. All Germans are entitled to wages needed to eat atleast one (1) meal a day
III. All Germans are able to express themselves politically without violent recourse
IV. All Germans are able to gather and protest without violent recourse
V. All Germans are able to gain legal counsel when arrested
VI. All Germans are allowed to know the reasoning for their arrest
VIII. All Germans are free from unlawful seizure of personal property

Also I feel we are missing some very important religious schooling in the proposal, as it is now, the Germans might not even understand their christian roots. We need to stop other religions from having any influence in our German society.

 

[Tapscott]

The current proposed constitution has my support, as it does not prevent the Government from blocking the Kaiser from returning to his Throne.

~ Karl Adolf von Arnstein, Minister of Defence

 

[unmerged(271387)]

Disallowing people from expressing their religious belief freely and exercising it is a step back to slavery,not forwards to a democracy.I have to disagree with such religious sentiments,and I reject any so - called "christian roots",when religious zealotry,such as political zealotry,has caused so many problems to everyone in the past.Instead,we must enter an age of democracy and tolerance.If we try,we might fail.But in the end,we won't be remembered as the murderers of the German Democracy.

As such,I disapprove of Herr Dexler's proposed changes on the Code of Rights.

-Otto Wels.

((Isn't that technically a constitutional change?Anyway,I will edit it correctly.))

 

[firelordsky]

Herr Drexler, if we were to follow your reasoning, then we must go even deeper and find our pagan roots and educate our children about them. I do believe that none of us wish for a return to time. Also, all schools shall only instruct students who are interested in their "Christian roots" in the subject of theology so as to ensure that the German people who are Christian are the most devout Christians they can be. After all, would you want a large amount of our Christians to be closet atheists who are not, in the least, loyal to God?

[firelordsky]

I here by announce that I shall be closely managing my companies over the next few weeks, so if you, my fellow representatives, would like to reach me, please do leave a message at my office.

Workers of Germany!

Enough of oppression! The vile right-wing parties have been suppressing our efforts of alleviating the workers, and aiding them in their struggle for long enough! Threatened by death, imprisonment and persecution we have called off the strikes once, but no longer shall we bow down to these Imperialists! They have thrown Germany into the chaos of World War One, and now they are trying to oppress the workers and laborers even more. I declare this government illegitimate, and bide all the workers of the world - unite!
