| Message | Support article 2, oppose article 1. If workers have the right to withhold their labour, then employers should have the right to withhold their payment. |

| Message | Classes that are fundamentally opposed to each other cannot collaborate. The proletariat can ally with the intelligentsia, the petit-bourgeoisie, but never with the bourgeoisie. All progressive classes should be united in the struggle against the bourgeoisie. This is the essence of class collaboration. We will not collaborate with our class enemies. |

| Message | Is there such a distinction of class in modern day society?? I would argue "not really". There are levels of income certainly, but I would say that there are few "classes" nowadays. |

| Message | Are you kidding? If anything, class structure has gotten more complex. We still see the proletariat, lumpenproletariat, petit-bourgeoisie, bourgeoisie, intelligentsia. Except now, you have classes within these classes, usually determined by income or education. And since we all live in developed countries (I'm assuming) we do not see the stark class divisions that mark the Third World. For many countries, the landowner-peasant boss-worker model still holds true and applies to large amounts of people. |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
