I'm no political theorist, but since when is the Warden of a freaking jail in charge of an entire city? Unless this is Oz. But with women. And no pods.

I digress. Shouldn't we have mayors and senators and . . you know, a democratic system instead of one person doing whatever they want to?

I think the whole deities thing cancels out any chance of democracy.

[mojomolly]

Probably. I just think all this talk about laws is silly when half the people here are practically gods or something.

[theserenashow]

Maybe it helps to believe normal people can still make a difference.

[mojomolly]

Even the people running for Warden aren't normal.

[He has a French accent.] ...How does that work? A...demo-cratic system?

[mojomolly]

There are. . checks and balances. Like. . the president can't just make up some stupid rule. . congress has to approve it. And then the senate. Or is the senate congress? Then what's the house. . I'm not really sure but everyone usually ends up equally miserable so it works.

[gforgreat]

...Oh.

Why would ya want that?

[mojomolly]

It . . works. Ish.

[dresden4hire]

I'm pretty sure this is a type of prison, just not the kind the Warden we elect is in charge of.

[mojomolly]

I do not like where that extended metaphor could go.

[dresden4hire]

I'm pretty sure I don't want to think about that very much.

[mojomolly]

You started it.

[sword_boy]

I think the more appropriate term is Chief of Police... but Warden does sound better.

Do you think we really need such a system? I think we're fine without a legislation as it is.

[mojomolly]

I don't think we need a system either, I mean, there are plenty of crimes that people get away with around here that no one punishes.

[sword_boy]

Then report these crimes to the police so we can take of them.

The police force is only so big. We're trying to spread ourselves as best as we can.

[mojomolly]

It's nothing I know about personally, just stuff you hear.

[witchinbloom]

Molly, I'm surprised at you. Your earth logic has no place here!

[mojomolly]

I just don't get why they don't call the position Mayor or Dictator or something. . though I did vote.

[witchinbloom]

Because the Deities like to give us the illusion we're not puppets or lab rats?

[mojomolly]

But we all know we are.
