Message | While it may be wise to have them less available, we feel a fullscale cut would hurt public health, and population stability. Fewer contraceptives leads to more abortions. |
Date | 13:36:15, July 05, 2007 CET | From | Liberal Party of Malivia | To | Debating the SLP - Contraceptives Bill |
Message | We do not believe that their availability would decrease. Simply rather than having everyone pay for someone else's contraceptives, everybody pays for their own. |
Date | 15:13:33, July 05, 2007 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the SLP - Contraceptives Bill |
Message | SDP agrees. |
Date | 02:52:05, July 06, 2007 CET | From | Protectorate Party | To | Debating the SLP - Contraceptives Bill |
Message | We would rather spend a little extra, then have an increase in abortions and STDs. |

Random quote: "When we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, 'Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!'" - Martin Luther King Jr. |
