Everyone must honor god as he created the world that we live in, if a population were to go against the will of god, there will be grave consequences. I hear of this "enlightenment" but god knows that this is the incorrect way of doing things. I have heard grave warnings and his will must be heard. While the 3rd estate may want a more democratic situation, but this is a grave sin as it goes against god and the will of the church. God will hear your prayers and reward you if society remains the same and you continue to go to church for god to hear your prayers. The 3rd estate may be starving, but this is only god punishing them because they are supporting this enlightenment and god is displeased.]]> 2017-04-17 12:34:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531778 https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531832 The 3rd estate would react badly as the King still wishes to keep the best interests of the 1st and 2nd estates. Because the 3rd estate makes up the vast majority of the population, we would argue that it is unfair that we have to cover taxes for the remaining 3% who spends the most. We would propose to tax the other two estates. If this does not happen, we would revolt to overthrow the monarchy and have equal rights, despite the estate. A revolt would be attainable because we have the most people who are working towards the same goal. ]]> 2017-04-17 12:34:51 UTC https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531832 https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531866 If the king called a legislative meeting to hear 3rd estate grievances, we would want to use our sway over the king to protect our own lavish lifestyle. Despite being nobility, we are aware of the grievances of the 3rd estate and would encourage the King to turn a blind eye for our own betterment. We fear the third estate, as they represent 97% of the population, hold views different from ours and pose a risk to our non-taxpaying lifestyle. We do have influencing power (that we can use to our advantage) over both the King and 3rd estate, as we collect feudal dues from peasants (80%) and hold posts in the government and military. We would want to keep things similar to how they are now, as they are working out well for us, while continuing to keep tabs on the third estate, to prevent an "uprising"]]> 2017-04-17 12:35:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531866 https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531913 I would explain to my fellow rich white Haitian landowners that there is great tension rising from within France and any extreme political actions would greatly influence the economic landscape in my beautiful country of Haiti. In order to protect my money vested in Haiti I would seek to calm down the 3rd estate. Since the king and queen are unable to tax the 2nd estate, I would have to directly go to the 2nd estate and explain that any revolution would sway the economic balances of France and they would risk losing their money. Teamed up with the rest of the nobles I would seek to help out only the bourgeoisie but not the peasants. The peasants would stand no chance of taking down all of us without money. If my plan where to be foiled I would liquidate my assets and live happily in Haiti.]]> 2017-04-17 12:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531913 https://padlet.com/mickdelcastillo/theestatesgeneral/wish/166531928 Spread out the taxes 2nd and 3rd
