| Message | Unfortunately, most full-time workers, statistically speaking, are not single. This would just be a waste of funding; we may as well leave the provision as it stands. |

| Message | "This would just be a waste of funding; we may as well leave the provision as it stands." - How so? There would be no increase in government expenditure and, thusly, no increase in funding to be wasted. In regards this bill, we fully support. |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
