The Tao is like a well:
used but never used up.
It is like the eternal void:
filled with infinite possibilities.

It is hidden but always present.
I don't know who gave birth to it.
It is older than God.

I am getting frustrated with the WA. Lately it seems like every time a resolution is passed, there is immediately a proposal and vote to repeal said resolution. What is the point?

People can't make up their minds.

We should make a proposal to make sure submitted proposals are clear (no gray areas where repeals could exploit) XD

The Tao doesn't take sides;
it gives birth to both good and evil.
The Master doesn't take sides;
she welcomes both saints and sinners.

The Tao is like a bellows:
it is empty yet infinitely capable.
The more you use it, the more it produces;
the more you talk of it, the less you understand.

Hold on to the center.

The current WA Resolution, Repeal "Rights of Indigenous Peoples" has been posted on our off-site forums at:

http://www.runboard.com/bnationstates.f2.t83701

GENERAL ASSEMBLY RESOLUTION AT VOTE

Repeal "Rights of Indigenous Peoples"

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#328

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #328: Rights of Indigenous Peoples (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Distressed and mortified that 'Rights of Indigenous Peoples' would allow culturally distinct minority groups to circumvent the legitimate authority of member nations, as the resolution attempts to '[prohibit] member nations from ... limiting [indigenous] culture[s]' in clause (5),

Maintaining that it is a violation of human rights to make some groups 'more equal' than others,

Concerned that the resolution permits ritual murder, as ritual murders are not prohibited by international law,

Believing that ritual murder is immoral and a violation of human rights,

Further disapproving of the resolution as it prohibits governments from pursuing public health initiatives or executing infrastructure programmes for economic development in their own sovereign territory if there are beliefs to the contrary,

Confident that international economic development is important for the functioning of the free society and building of the modern society,

The World Assembly hereby,

Repeals the resolution on the 'Rights of Indigenous Peoples'.

*************************

THREE DAYS AGO: Mikeswill voted for the World Assembly Resolution "Rights of Indigenous Peoples".

Amongst NationStates residents, voting was 23-7 (76% For).

To Repeal Legislation before the ink has dried is ridiculous thus we are voting AGAINST the Resolution.

"California Dreamin'"

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray.
I've been for a walk on a winter's day.
I'd be safe and warm if I was in L.A.;
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.

Stopped in to a church I passed along the way.
Well I got down on my knees and I pretend to pray.
You know the preacher liked the cold;
He knows I'm gonna stay.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.

All the leaves are brown and the sky is gray.
I've been for a walk on a winter's day.
If I didn't tell her I could leave today;
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.
California dreamin' on such a winter's day.

I'm going to abstain from voting for future resolutions until people stop trying to repeal everything. Anyone else wants to join me?

Resign in protest. Hasn't always worked out well when you have a process that uses votes only.

Viridis montis

We could try to pass some sort of resolution that once a resolution is passed it cannot be repealed for x amount of days.

The Tao is called the Great Mother:
empty yet inexhaustible,
it gives birth to infinite worlds.

It is always present within you.
You can use it any way you want.
