Description[?]:
| "I think we are all aware of the predominant issue of homelessness. We all bemoan it, but now there is a solution to better it. This bill will establish the government as what it should be, the vanguard, the protector of the people. People who cannot afford housing nevertheless need housing, and I believe it is the responsibility of the government to attempt to provide some comfort to those unable to give comfort to themselves. Make the right decision, thank you for your time." -Daniel V. Feterokov, in the proposition speech to the National Directory |

| Random quote: "Soldiers are not the enemies of the movement. They're potential allies. They're more than that. Soldiers are the only people in America who are paying a stiff price for this war. Everybody else profits. Soldiers are the ones losing their lives, losing friends, having their lives disrupted. The real victims of American imperialism are its soldiers." - Fred Gardner |
