| Message | I do not agree with the large family aspect of this bill. If we start handing out money to large families, citizens may start to abuse this, by having more children simply for the government benefit checks, we have no guarantee this money will be used for the children it was originally intended for. Do you have a way to ensure it does? |

| Random quote: As for rape, of course, that is a direct consequence of the capitalist system of oppression. Capitalism relies on fuelling division and resentment to sustain itself, and so it sets men against women, race against race and so on. Men rape women because they are being oppressed by capitalism, so they take it out on women. Under Communism, there will be no rape, because there will be a full and natural harmony and equality between the genders. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
