The SPP was founded by 3 workers at the early beginning of the server, they were 1950minecrafter, JoanM999 and uuku. They wanted to help to settle the foundations of DemocracyCraft to make sure they were based on the benefit of the people. The party made it to the Congress with a majority of votes and 5 seats.

During their stay at the Congress they passed bills like the Protection of the Villages and Villagers Act or the Amendment to the Constitution III that allowed DemocracyCraft to have Vice-Presidential Elections

Today, the SPP do not have seats on the senate, but they do have 2 seats in the congress. 1950minecrafter and Olefante.

## History

On the 2nd Elections, the SPP didn’t get any seat in the Congress and 1950minecrafter, who was the leader at the moment, left the server for sometime. After that, The\_MarxSisters became the leader of the party.

Marx accepted members from the CCCP (also known as the Red Army) and later on, she decided to make the SPP the political arm of the Red Army. This decision would lead the SPP to get an image of aproving violence as a way to get things done and a decrease of its reputation.

Some time later, Marx gave up the leadership, leaving the party in hands of Kevvvvv. The Red Army became more violent which gave the SPP an even worse image . When the SPP was about to be deregistered due to this violent image, Kevvvvv decided to get the party out of the Red Army and break any links to that organization. Just after that happened, 1950minecrafter and JoanM999 decided to come back to try to help Kevvvvv to bring the party to what it was before, an absolute non-violent party that condemned any kind of violence made by anyone, and especially the Red Army.

While the November electoral campaign was taking place, Kevvvvv decided to make leadership elections and 1950minecrafter got elected again as the leader and JoanM999 the 2nd Leader.

In the middle of the 4th Congress term, JoanM999 was proposed as the Deputy Secretary of the DEC and decided to focus on that, leaving the Congress and the party as he wanted to become an independent politician.

To solve the vacant in the 2nd Leader position of the party, 1950minecrafter decided to make an special primary for the 2nd Leader, which lead Kevvv to assume the 2nd Leadership of the Party.

Before the January 2021 Congressional Elections, the Party had primaries again for the Leader and the 2nd Leader of the Party, which resulted in the same situation, which was 1950minecrafter as the Leader and Kevvv as the 2nd Leader.

The party has recently welcomed some new members and has been trying to make understand to the people that is back again a non-violent party and that the mistake will not happen again. The SPP wants to be the party of the everyone, the party of the people.

## Policies

**1-** Official Register of Co-ops so workers can unite to work together without having a boss.

**2-** To work towards a STV voting system with some changes so it can be enforced in the forums.

**3**– Lowering Congressmen and Congresswomen Wages as:

* – Speaker: From $40/15min to $35/15min
* – Representative: $30/15min to $25/15min
* – President of the Senate: $40/15min to $35/15min
* – Senator: $30/15min to $25/15min

**4**– We want to stablish a strong healthcare system where everyone is allowed to use it and it is affordable (this will be something to talk about with the Secretaries of Health and Economy).

**4.1**– People will be able to create their own pharmacy.

**4.2**– People will be able to create their own medicine factory to sell medicines to pharmacies and the government.

**4.3**– The Government will buy medicines from medicine producers as the hospital chests will not be infinitely full, they will have to be refilled from time to time. This will allow the medicine market to continue working and flowing.

**4.4**– People won’t have to pay that much for these medicines as the Government will pay part of it from taxes or fully if the /healthcare command is used.

**4.5**– In order to not make the pharmacy owners go bankrupt due to the low prices of the government-owned pharmacies, people-owned pharmacies will only be allowed to sell common medicines and remedies meant for things like broken legs. The Government won’t be able to sell these ones at a lower price than the pharmacies, with the exception that the citizen uses the /healthcare command. The Government will be the only one allowed to sell medicines for rare and hard illnesses, like the plague. The price for these ones will be lowered and will be free for those using the command /healthcare.

**5-** We want to work towards a STV voting system. As our current forums wouldn’t allow it as it is, we want to look for a similar way to enforce it.

**6-** Transparency

**6.1**– Each department must provide a report on their gains and investments weekly or every 3 days (this will be debated with the rest of the reps and with the Cabinet). This means that they will have to explain what’s the amount of money they have received from taxes and/or department stores and also what do they invest money on, for example, how much money they spend on salaries in total (not on each department member, but in total) and how much money they spend in materials, new buildings… ).

**6.2**– Every decision made must bring with them the reason why it is made (improvements to the department, hirings, firings, lawsuits…).

**6.3**– The cabinet and both chambers of the Congress (HoR and Senate) will have to provide a public report with a sum of what has been talked about during meetings.
