Bill: Vote Elimination of National Defense Act

- I do not believe we should abolish the AFCR. After working closely with its first leader, Major EATB, it's clear there was, and still remains, a plan and use for an armed force.

However, efforts to get it up and running have unfortunately been delayed due to EATB's resignation, and no subsequent Major being appointed by the President - why has the AFCR been allowed to be leaderless for so long? The Major is the driving force of the AFCR - no matter how much the DHS Secretary purports to have "authority over" - it is the Major who is responsible for hiring/firing, for implementing the Policy, for Training, for everything. The AFCR has not been allowed to be active, because a new Major had not been appointed. This is, and shall remain, a failure on the President.

A base is being built. The foundational policy documents have been drafted. All we need is a strong, active leader, with clear goals and expectations for the AFCR. For those who decry "what is the point of the armed forces", "why does it exist", "we're not even at war", well what is the point having doctors and artifical illnesses? Why have detectives solve murders instead of just teleporting murderers straight to prison... Put simply, the AFCR expands the variety of roleplay options on this server, and gives people more things to do in-game.

The Armed Forces should exist for those who wish to participate in that kind of activity; to be apart of the kind of structured organisation with a heirarchy and purpose. Like with real life, it is an admirable thing to want to serve in the Armed Forces. Why should we be disparaging those who wish to do so?

I spent weeks drafting a comprehensive bill to expand and better define and build upon the work End already put in. I will continue to champion and push for not just the survival, but continued growth of the AFCR.

Nay — AFCR was going well until the Major resigned. Just needs a new appointment. Its not for everyone, but everyone who was taking part enjoys it.
