Legion World credits?

Well when you think about how much the previous administration threw at the various boondoggle projects I'm afraid the first thing a new Leader is going to have to do is find a way to balance that out of control budget.
Have you seen how much the Security Office spends on those "retreats" for training and recruitment? Who are they recruiting and what does a "Oort cloud mud bath" have to do with training?
That's only ONE example of uncontrolled spending around here. If elected (big IF) I plan to approach the Legion World Council and ask for a line item veto to curb some of these programs that have spiraled so far out of control.

Thanks for the question citizen.

I see I didn't exactly answer Kent's question. The candidate "Who can promise the biggest budget for the Bureau of External Affiars" would be someone else.

As for Cobie's question I'd like to toss that over to Lardy. Perhaps Gary Concord would like to take a stab at it though?

Candidates, What will my position be in your new administration?

Since the last great crisis the economy of Legion World has been almost totally reliant on my trips to the shoe stores, can you promise tax relief on imported boots?

All that shoe shopping has taken its toll, Can any of the candidates pledge that the new government will bail out my credit card debts?

Under my administration you can look forward to the following:

Shakespeare, The office of External Affairs Budget will be tied directly to the amount of time it manages to keep a certain legendary poster occupied off planet dealing with affairs.

Cobalt, Try cleaning up your own messes, not expecting the LMBP Leadership to do it for you.

Nova Girl Bring those credit card bills to me. I'll carefully fold them until they are all corners and show you a very interesting repository for them.


Now I'll let the other candidates pander to you for a while before I break off a few more doses of reality for you idiots...


Soon, Legion World, Soon your time will end.

Mayavale does not run for this position, but will answer questions to demonstrate his superior leadership, in order that more might be recruited to the glorious organization that is the Acolytes of Mayavale.

Hey Mayavale ... have you ever gotten aroused during a massage?

I don't think Legion Worlders should pay for the Bureau's sexual hi-jinks, personally.

I think my record as original LMB Leader speaks for itself. I'm easily one of the very most proactive Leaders the LMB has ever had. Tackling longstanding items is Priority One for me. Slim, and especially the Khanate of Sol Invictus and the Dark Oval are at the top of my docket.

Tax relief is less the domain of the LMB and more that of the LW Founders--HEY! We're not paying taxes here on LW, are we?!?!? Scott? Gary? Caroline?


Still "Lardy" to my friends!

Good answer! The LMB must not be confused with the Legion World Founders

Mayavale believes that it is extremely important that affiars, or, as you might call them, the large intestines of herd animals, be taken out of the animal in question before being used in forecasting the future. Thus, external affiars is a top priority of the Acolytes of Mayavale.

Mayavale reminds all that his own name evokes the veil of Maya, which in certain of your Earth cultures is believed to be all that seperates mortals from the realization of the oneness of all things. Mayavale recommends a good dose of the wheeling mists to bring us all together. Or to tear us apart with memories of horrible betrayals from past lives. But perhaps in disunity our true togetherness lies.

The person who can promise the biggest budget is the person who would say anything to get elected. I, however, promise that you will have the money that you need to fulfill your duties.

I think that the LMB's greatest strength is its diversity. So, making them one united group will actually weaken the LMB.

Nova Girl,

It seems that your area of expertise lies with commerce. Therefore, I would put you in charge of Legion World Commerce, both internal and external. As such, you would be able to regulate the taxes upon imported goods.

I am sure that your salary as Secretary of Commerce will cover your existing credit card debt.

I would not know the answer to this question as I am neither Dr. Mayavale nor a massage therapist who has given him a massage.

Candidates:

The fact that you have, each and every one of you, betrayed Doctor Mayavale in a past life is not in question.

My question to you, however, is: how do you intend to make reparations?

IF I did kill Mayavale in a past life (IF being the operative word here Exnihil, I'm not taking your word for anything) then he obviously deserved to die.

Therefore I have no intention of making "reparations" to that idiot over anything.


Soon, Legion World, Soon your time will end.

Would it not be possible that in a past life Dr. Mayavale had betrayed me and thus the cosmic karmic balance has been achieved?

Given that Dr. Mayavale has not sought me out for retribution, I would infer that the above scenario is correct. Therefore, I have no need to make any reparations to Dr. Mayavale.

Yes. This might not sit well with some voters, but it would be Inane Posting Day.

I've long been known to be a poster who is not a fan of inane threads, but a full-on 'Inane posting day' does sound pretty groovy.

So long as there is dancing in the streets of course.

Takron-Galtos Day, which would be similar to Bastille Day in France. This holiday will celebrate the day that the cell door finally clanked shut on Cobalt Kid and he was imprisoned and executed for his myriad of crimes.
