More on multiple student governments (Score 1)

This is to continue my idea on multiple student governments and how it could be feasibly implemented. Multiple student governments should exist at one time, if only for the purposes of giving particular groups of students powerful enough voices so that other groups will have no choice but to consider them and their feelings seriously. Governments should be grade independent (if so chosen) to make this much more realistic; it adds to the possible population that can make up a new government, and it allows groups that are generally grade independent (and most groups are) to have a legitimate voice. Multiple governments (in my suggested implementation) are to be created for the purpose of maintaining justice. There will never be enough school officials to adequately deal with social problems, and even if there were, only the very trusting would believe that they were genuinely helping the student body maintain social order (even if it were true). Issues relating to money matters (fundraisers and so on and so forth) are handled by the school; each class participates in its own fundraising, and class specific events are withdrawn from class specific funds, while class independent events are withdrawn from either the overall class pool, or fairly between each class (farily being determined on the occasion). These fundraisers should be organized through the school itself, not the student governments; student governments can organize their own private funds (managed through the school), and can contribute to the class dependent pools if they choose. Each government is responsible for dealing with social conflicts within their own group; they determine their own private rules, as well as rules with outsiders participating in their government's activities; they may alternatively opt to allow the school to pass judgement. Only in particularly nasty cases will decision by the school be mandatory (these would be cases that are fairly obvious to most readers). If a person in one government thinks he will be/is being mistreated by his peers, he can seek Asylum from another government, or the school until he can adequately choose another government. Conflicts involving participants from multiple governments are determined in multiple possible ways; either by the governments involved, or with the governments choosing an independent outside party (either another government, or the school), who can add to the voting structure or decide entirely by themselves (this would be decided before any resolution would take place). Again, in particularly nasty situations, the school can override any authority the acting governments have. There are some requirements for a legitimate government to be formed. Each government must have a means of transmitting authority (as in saying "We have decided this"). They must have a means of assigning and taking back leadership. They must have a means of assigning and taking back membership. And finally, they must have some means by which to deal with outsiders. Legitimate forms of government include (and include variations on) Democracy (Who doesn't love Democracy? :P), Dictatorship/Monarchy/Hegemony/Imperial rule, and even Anarchy, properly done (I would include Socialism if I could think of a case for it). Rather than run through a Democratic example, we will run through an example of a Anarchic government. Anyone can become part of the government at any time (with an option to exclude cases where they are part of another government). Everyone in the government gets a say in how things are done. Anyone can propose any idea for discussion, debate, and to be voted on. No one can propose the same thing over and over again (to prevent fillabusters; they'd just work around it if someone was being a jerk). Any time something must be decided on, it does not pass until everyone signs a document (our means of transmitting authority). If people do not want to sign a document, they do not have to; however, at any time, everyone besides that person can vote to oust that person (this allows things to be passed which really should be, and it allows people to be forced out). If someone still wants back in after they have been cast out, and they let him in, then it must not have been too important why he didn't sign (or he just didn't want legal liability). So even Anarchy can be a suitable form of government; provided all the necessary requirements for government in this environment are met. (If this particular kind of Anarchy has a name, please let me know; otherwise, it shall forever be known as Bladetooth's Anarchy!). In this kind of environment, students will feel more powerful, and will feel that there are people on their side. And if they are alone, it will be noticed they are alone, and something will be done if necessary (let's hope the school can manage to keep ONE KID safe...). If problems between governments erupt, then the school will be able to recognize the problem more immediately than if there were problems between other kinds of groups in a traditional school. Because the groups are organized, what one group does will be more expected than otherwise; problems that would have gotten lost through the cracks are now out in the open. Schools can take advantage of this, and have less to police than before; they are thus more managable. Also, they can pay closer attention on education.
