| Message | We must disagree. The private sector can operate the power grid and has a place alongside the national rail system. We feel that a few large firms working within the hands of the government is better than the government handling all. Grêle Kanjor! Pour la Patrie! Pour la UPF! |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
