Politics Thread (sort of)

This is a thread for the discussion of politics.

I'll start by commenting that Lord Grathula's policies regarding the treatment of freed Morthurians are not only completely abhorrent, but actually counterproductive to Grathula's stated goals. Putting their food on frisbees and forcing them to fetch them in order to eat is both humiliating and needlessly expensive; Torvalia needs the frisbees for defense, and lost frisbees are therefore far more costly to replace than plates. Not to mention the fact that few of the frisbees are properly cleaned, resulting in sicker Morthurians and putting a higher burden on the health care system.
