Firestone’s: Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 2020

Just no. This state works on a system of popularity, not who does the best work. If we elected our Sheriff, the Stapleton County Sheriff’s Office would turn into rubble in a matter of weeks. In addition, this further decreases the little power the county government holds.

I am assuming you made this claim without having no knowledge on anything my administration has pushed for. We have sent a list of 11 things for the State to give the County authority over, and very little has actually gone through. Here’s the list:

You are comparing the current County to the previous County. The main difference between both is that the State government actually had trust within the County previously. In addition, the State would actually allow the County to make laws pertaining to their jurisdictions and other items that relate best to the County. After the whole Patchy and Markehabashi situations, the State has very little to no trust within the County. I do not like to boast myself, but I think keeping the County on a stable path and representing the interests of everyone to the best of my ability for 2 terms has assisted in rebuilding the broken trust. There is a long way to go, and I am doing my absolute best but it really gets hard when everyone shuts all offers merely because we are the County.

I firmly believe that the County government definitely is not the reason why Firestone is on a decline. Rather, the environment that the County government is placed in harms the County government significantly. What can we do with so much of our power stripped away because of 2 idiots abusing their authority?

To be frank, this is your opinion. These aren’t facts; I don’t think the title fits for this thread.

The thread itself sounds deceptive, with the intent of simply denouncing each government branch and bureaucracy within Firestone. When I read:

I basically lost any sort of interest I had left to continue indulging in this thread.

If you really think the government at large is very inefficient, instead of just denouncing them, why not peacefully critique and provide clear suggestions? This sounds more like an ad hominem attack than respectful opinion. No one likes disrespectful, negative, or for all purposes, ‘toxic’ threads. Let’s keep Firestone friendly and positive, something contrary to this thread.

semi-related mini-rant: city government, while a ‘sandbox’ for people new to government, is heavily ignored; this means that when people from city government go to county or state government, they aren’t prepared, and can fuck up on a larger scale.

as a city councillor, my job is pretty useless. we can’t pass bills related to or to support FD or SCMC as that’s state property, and any laws we pass for things like lingering, restricted areas, or traffic violations will be unknown, or ignored by nearly all citizens and LEOs.

give municipal governments more recognition :pensive:

Having a state government and a county government is pretty dumb when the group only offers 1 county, in my opinion makes the point of the county pretty much useless. They pretty much are there to really restrict SCSO and SCFD or push laws that the state failed to pass kekw.

the judicial branch is definitely slow, but i think that is due to the sheer volume of cases relative to a small amount of judges and attorneys. there are 33 BCAs in the SoF rn. about 10-12 of them dont practice atm and 6 are judges, which means we have about 6 active judges and 15 lawyers. there are hundreds of cases both pending and active at any given point in time (theres currently about 280). a lot of us generally respond slow because we are overburdened with cases and crafting legal arguments, decisions, etc for each case takes a lot of time to do – plus the added timezone issue, of course. several of our practitioners are in european timezones.

the only way to speed the system up, in my opinion, is to get more people. that is why we have been actively working toward making a functional law school (attempts thus far have failed due to the lack of a competent and willing superintendent to put in the huge amount of work a law school requires). that is also why ive been working with getting the Judicial Mentorship Program running. there was a point during my tenure as chief justice where we had 2 SCJs and 0 DCJs. we now have 4 DCJs, another 4 mentees, a few people interested in becoming mentees, and i hope to recommend an SC nomination very soon. we’re making progress at getting more people, but it is a slow slow process when competency standards are so high in the legal system and, frankly, the amount of people willing to put so much time into the most paperwork-intensive job in the state is not very large.

i absolutely understand peoples concerns with my branch (i have the same concerns!) but i hope they know that we aren’t just idling by and letting conditions worsen. we are actively trying to make things better :slight_smile:

tl;dr - we’re working on improving our end over at the judicial branch
sorry for bad paragraph breaks in this one im usually better with not wordwalling

Heres what I think why firestone is declining, plus note I haven’t passed the 6th grade.

  1. lack of motivation, at this point people are sick of the same old toxic, broken, outdated, completely boring v2. Also who has the motivation to put in effort for firestone when it’s always the same old v2

  2. life, No one really wants to put in that much effort to make a brilliant state. I honestly believe that the reason why firestone 2016-2018 is because people were young and had nothing to do with life

  3. firestone is big, DONT get me wrong here but I think firestone is 2 big to control or run perfectly. People from v1 say firestone being small is what made it so good everyone knew each other and everyone got along. It’s completely hard to control 500 people

  4. roblox itself is getting boring

county is definitely iffy. 2 government system doesn’t work well in Firestone, but whatever we can forget about it elite is doing pretty well with the county.

city however needs to go bye bye. I’ve said it before and ill say it 100 times again, its useless, like utterly useless. the state/county government is already iffy, and you want to shove 3 city Govs?? who’s stupid idea was this? as this post has said, nobody takes them serious. city laws who? Firestone can work well with state and county.
