Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.

| Message | Our Party tentatively agrees to the first point, in support of allowing independent credit unions to open, but not fully profit-oriented private banks. We are also against opening further venues for Kazulian problem gamblers to spend away their family's income security. If Article 1 is divorced from Article 2 and reintroduced as a separate bill, we will conditionally support it. |

| Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
| Random quote: "The Revolution needs to progress. We as humans need to evolve into higher beings through better moral virtues. And we can achieve that if we clean ourselves from the immoral. Those who go against the Revolution, go against human progress and must be freed in the most humane way possible. That is why we introduced the guillotine." - Maximus Robertson, former Davostani revolutionary |
