Description[?]:
| This is a visibility bill. Because it includes a constitutional change, it will require more than 2/3rds of Congress to vote yes. This will prevent these proposals from actually passing. The CFC proposes this plank to show the people what awful capitalists their opponents are. |

| Message | We will vote for this. Worst case scenario Polaris and Alianza will as well. Because it's a constitutional change, the Communist Scientists Committee can vote for it as well, but no other communists should vote for. This will make some of us look laissez-faire and others look regulatory. A good spread. |

| Message | On second though, I've just realized that if I vote for any of these they'll likely pass. That means that I'll have to vote against and look more regulatory, while ALL other communist parties should vote for. I know it seems weird, but it's for the visibilities. Trust me on this. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, otherwise we won't maintain our hold on Congress. |

| Message | For a someone putting so much weight on the RP part of the game, you sure are quick to change to playing a game rather than RPing a party. |

| Message | Hmm? What's the point of RPing if you can't win? And what's the point of winning if you don't add any depth to it through roleplaying? Ask yourself that, my bourgeoisie friend. |

| Message | En la capital de Chile y en uno de sus principales paseos públicos existe inmortalizada en bronce la estatua del prócer de nuestra independencia, el general José Miguel Carrera, cuya misma sangre corre por mis venas, por cuya razón comprenderá usted que ni como chileno ni como descendiente de aquel deben intimidarme ni el número de sus tropas ni las amenazas de rigor. Dios guarde a usted ================================ "In the capital city of Chile, and in one of its more important avenues, does exist inmortalized in bronce, the statue of our hero of our independence, Jose Miguel Carrera, which same blood runs now in my veins. For which reason, you'll understand that neither as Chilean, neither as descendent of him, I should be intimidated by the number of your troops, or the menaces you can say. God blessings to you." ============================== |
