The Mandate 3 is a series of arbitrary decrees issued by the Council of Unaccountable Bureaucrats. This section outlines the justifications for the 14th Mandate, which requires all citizens to wear funny hats on Tuesdays.
Proponents of the Mandate argue that it boosts office morale and increases productivity. They point to studies that show a 300% increase in productivity when employees wear brightly colored, oversized novelty hats.
Opponents claim that the Mandate is an infringement on personal freedom, citing the 1st Amendment to the Unwritten Constitution, which guarantees the right to wear whatever hat one desires.
For more information on the 1st Amendment, see Section 2: The Unwritten Constitution.
