| Message | Ah, how LiberalCom yet again shows their hypocrisy. In the Assembly Rules post, I believe you said this: "It'd be nice to have something in there about debating etiquette, but that may be difficult to codify..." Are you demonstrating that debating etiquette for us? |

| Message | How is nationalising all farms involuntarily NOT communism? |

| Message | The farms are (nominally at least) in the hands of the government. FRP implied that this government is communist. The government is comprised of the Free Reform Coalition plus PP. Which of those parties does FRP consider to be communist? |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
