>(unrealistic) forecast.<br></blockquote></div>You're very optimistic, I only see maximum 4 represented in the next years.<br><br>Anyway I'm glad somebody has plans for the future of PPI :) How about the future of those 30...more parties that have 2-3 members? How about strenghtening the movement before planing for world domination :)<br>
<br>@Rodrigo: From the Wikipedia you pointed me at: <b>Politics ....</b> It consists of "social relations involving authority or power"<sup id="cite_ref-0" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics#cite_note-0"><span> </span></a></sup>and refers to the regulation of a political unit,<sup id="cite_ref-1" class="reference"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Politics#cite_note-1"><span></span><span></span></a></sup>
and to the methods and tactics used to formulate and apply policy.<br>Do you see PPI as a regulatory body that takes decisions, makes policies and you apply them?<br><br>PS: I'm thinking it's about time to change the subject of the topic. We are now in the discussion that should have been made before the conference and answer to the question : What do we all want PPI to be?<br>
