The Aus Democratic Socialist Party (also known as the Australian Democratic Socialist Party), is a Political Party of Australia. During the months of December 2009, to February 2010, it briefly experimented with alternative names, amongst them Peoples Democracy, and the Australian Democratic Party, but ultimately decided to return to its original name.
Core Values
The Party's core values are posted on the forums:
- They believed that every citizen of eAustralia has the right to state benefits to maintain wellness at a decent level to maximize productivity.
- They believed that all General Managers have a right to earn a profit; however, they also have a responsibility to offer fair prices.
- The believed that all citizens have a right to a job with a fair wage, one which allows them to buy food of high enough quality to maintain wellness.
- They believed that citizens have a right to play the game regardless of their real-life nationality, previous eNationality or beliefs.
- They furthered the cause of democratic socialism as the ideal model for government.
- They believed that active and knowledgeable eCitizens contribute to the economy of eAustralia and make eRepublik much more enjoyable for all eCitizens, and strived to further eAustralia and its citizens through promoting activity and education to all eAustralians.
- They encouraged all members to participate in the development of our platforms, articles, press releases and public relations through friendly debate, and recognise that we cannot be a party of the people if we do not actively interact and work with eAustralians from all corners of the nation.
- They believed that every person has a right to have their voice heard and we will examine all ideas in an unbiased, objective manner.
- They believed that a stable economy is vital for the future of the nation and we will endeavour to expand it through the use of reasonable taxation, boycotts, recommended pricing and other economic measures that lead to maximum growth.
- They encouraged all eAustralians to be involved in the development of their society and we will help anyone with an interest or the potential to advance our cause.
History
The Beginnings
The Australian Democratic Socialist Party (ADSP) was formed after many on the eRepublik Australian Forums took part in the Political Compass Test which helped people find what political orientation and ideology they were.
After several members had completed the test and reported their results Cottus Arci joined those of like political mind together in a separate forum and we commenced discussions on the idea of forming our own party.
After much discussion, ideas and decisions, the Australian Democratic Socialist Party (ADSP) was officially formed on the 9th December 2008.
The Merger
The ADSP found that another Party, the Australian Labour Party had been formed not long before us, however, the 2 Party's Ideals were very similar. With this in mind, discussions commenced regarding the 2 Parties merging and it was finally agreed that the merger would occur and took place officially on the 15th December 2008 at the Official Party President Elections when Cottus Arci became the Party's First Official President.
A New Direction
In December of 2009, the ADSP members voted to refresh its image, and change it to People's Democracy.
