...that is, political activity.
Why do we keep the silly 5-person requirement for creating a party?
In fact, nothing says you can not create a 2-people political organisation as long as you don't refer to it as a "party". This is silly because "the moderates" is just as much a good name as "the moderate party".
This reduces that rule to being nothing but a requirement that needs to be fulfilled until the state of the islands give you a licence to use that word. This is not a thing the state should be doing, and I feel we should work for this system's abandonment.
If there's anything that 5-person rule does, it's scaring people. We don't want that. More parties = more fun. At least in my eyes. Considering a party is a GROUP of people, I say most of us would understand this means 2 people, but it shouldn't be regulated. At least npt, i think we all can agree, until we have a bigger population. That rule was made up in order to promote a more uniform and collected political culture when our population was well over the 600 mark. I didn't even like that rule back then, but now I feel the need is greater than ever to get rid of it.
Anyhow, this is what i feel should be done. And yes, I am bored right now... that's why I'm writing down all these ideas. I ate some bad kebab... and topped it off with tacos. Don't ask, I think you know how my belly feels... I did it for the islands... couldn't say no to tacos with homemade salsa... poor me^^
