| Message | Engeryt isn't a good thing to leave for people to do by themselves. Imagine having someone dig a hole in front of your house every day to put in thier company's powerline. It would distract from our citizen's standards of living. Nationalization is the best option. |

| Random quote: "Civil disobedience. . . is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem." - Howard Zinn |
