Article 31: Famine

The famine has caused many difficulties and its continued progress has stunted Vision. Many are dying. Our government will need to solve this.

Article 30: Can our Government be Trusted?

Article 30: Can our Government be Trusted?

The nation is reeling after the freedom of the press was so abruptly taken away. The discussion about it had all but vanished as people had started to be glad about their newfound freedom. It has been almost a month and a half since the freedom of the press was granted to us, though it feels like longer. During that time we have grown to depend on it. Even though this freedom may be problematic, there have been many benefits. We do have a government that is elected by the people, instead of one composed only of holdover revolutionaries. We have started to uncover the mystery behind the LilyPad Enterprises. These things may not have happened without the freedom of the press. But, not even those freedoms could change the stiff, uncaring Morning Star.

Article 29: New Manegment

We would, first and foremost, like to thank all of you for electing us. We have all campaigned and you have decided that we would be the best people to represent you. We are pleased to be able to serve you. This will be a return to revolutionary ideals. We will neither abandon you nor betray you. The people that you elected are all loyal to Vision. We are the people of Vision, the common people, the poor, and the outcasts. It is for us that Vision was built for and it was also you who Vision was made for. Together, we will further the revolution.

Article 28: Election

The elections have indeed taken place. Due to pressures from the people, all members of the government have stepped down and have decided not to run for reelection. All except for Eliza Wellington. Vision has been changing. These elections are a sign of that. Everything about the event was unprecedented, from the people elected, to the public’s response, to even the fact that we were having elections at all. The elections may very well go down in history as a turning point in Vision.

Article 26: Whispers

Recently, new elections have been announced, this is, of course, because public opinion has turned against those currently in power. This seems logical. Vision is structured to be a country based on the will of the people. If they revoke their support, the government must fall. Yet, things are not at all as cut and dry as all of that. Just under a month ago we were all discussing the freedom of the press and speech. We learned that one of the drawbacks of our newly granted freedoms is the influence of the rich on our news. As has been demonstrated, newspapers have been growing, not only in popularity but also in power. If you can control the newspapers, you can essentially control the course of Vision. We cannot let this happen to us, to our people. Vision must stay true.
