| Message | "The second article we are indifferent toward. The first though we feel is an unnecessary limitation on the rights of the people. Workers should be allowed to go on strike for any reason they wish, but may face terminatnion of their employment. Both employees and employers should be free to act in anyway they see fit, although they may have to justify their rationale in court." Rudy Milton |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
