Subject: Okay..

Okay... not to bust your bubble, but I'm not so sure about the idea of government.(this is my opinion as a player in the game, not as owner. If I get out-voted, it can be put into action) This also was discussed in the last meeting and I made the same point there. MOST of us are Rebles... think of the meaning of the word... these guys do not do well under a controlling government. The Rebels originally formed when the Fed government became too overpowering.. so a government like that would be fine for the Feds. But the Rebles... ahh.. I just cannot see them operating under such a plan. The rebles seem to have more of a free-for-all mentality, whereas the Federation is strict. The rebles was formed loosely and I could see them simply allowing anyone who could do the job to do it.. and teach others who wanted to know.. but not necissarily assigned ranks like that. The president also would not be the 'all powerful' one.. they are the tie-breaker, someone who deals in the political affairs, not someone who's word rules all.. that is more Fed-like.

Grrr.... I'm having a hard time explaining.. but do you know what I mean?

I don't want to have a neutral board.. in a true society those people could not seperate themselves like that. If they want to be by themselves, they can go to the Outlands, where the small settlements would be. But people with different opinions live in close-contact every day, so to add a seperate board would make it unrealistic.

Anything I missed?
