| Message | Precisely why we should keep it from the grubby hands of the corporations. Our flag must remain in the public domain, and not become a logo for big business. |

| Message | DWP, in Likatonia, WHO owns the corporations??? That's right: its the SHAREHOLDERS who are also citizens of the nation; the citizens then, in turn, appoint an individual to manage the company as Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Therefore, the question should be directed as such: "Should it be permissable for FREE-THINKING citizens to freely use a flag that belongs inherently to the PEOPLE for whatever purposes they choose???" The CWFP stands for FREEDOM!!! |

| Message | In Likatonia - who owns the corporation? The people do - collectively. Except as the CWFP and their ilk continue to try to take away that freedom, and hand it over to an elite class of the rich. The CWFP don't stand for freedom. They stand for a limited version of freedom for those who can afford it. Take your unpatriotic flag desecration and begone. |

| Message | Drang, actually according to the CURRENT law of Likatonia, corporations can ONLY be owned by the State if the company goes BANKRUMPT. You can thank your Immerence coalition for that one(haha). FYI, we believe in freedom for ALL and that is why we are ZEALOUS supporters for government subsidized loans and tax credits to businesses that are owned and managed by Democratic Worker Councils (unions). |
| Date | 23:27:21, November 24, 2007 CET | From | Permissive Social Union | To | Debating the REMEMBER: It's the PEOPLE's Flag, not the "Government's" Act |
| Message | Our supporters would not describe themselves as free thinking and are probably going to feel unduly excluded. |
