Choosing Your Own Government, Monday, Period 5, Class #3--Social Services
"Good afternoon," she greeted the class, "and congratulations on making it through another delightful weekend here in Fandom. When you sign in, please use whichever name you think most appropriate, and hopefully it'll match my lists."
"Today, we're going to talk about support services. Things like health care, employment, roads, mental health treatment," and here she paused and looked at a couple of people in particular. "First, I'd like you to decide, as a plain old citizen, what you'd like your government to do for you--do you want them to provide you care, or guarantee a job, or subsidize activities in the arts? How do you think this should be paid for--nothing comes free, you know, especially in government."
"Once you've decided your personal answer to these issues, I'd like you to get together in small groups and decide how you're going to address them with your government. How would you change what you wanted, or how you were asking for these services, based on the type of government you were dealing with? What kind of approach do you think would be most successful?"

Eve scribbled a note on a fresh page of her notebook.
I hit on Anders over the weekend!
Even the words were flaily-looking.

I slept with Chris!

Oh, dear. That wouldn't end well.

She didn't know any better.

Eve's taste in clothing plus her slightly more than modest funds from Jeremy? Oh, this was not going to be good.

Instead, she was writing down everything she could remember from this weekend, occasionally stopping to sketch a particular scene. She had liked being Serra, even if she was a bit embarrassed about chewing out Master Skywalker.
Oh god, Ethics class. That was going to be interesting.
