| Message | "If the consumers who have to live with the results of pollution want these restrictions, they'll use their power as consumers to buy green. This way, environmentalism in business will become a fantastic marketing tool. Big business will have to enforce high pollution restrictions on themselves if they want consumers to buy their product. Then business will start competing to reduce their pollution emissions, opening up even more opportunities. Using force will drown out all but the elite." ~James Allan, Shadow Trade and Industry Minister |

| Random fact: In cases where players introduce RP laws to a nation and then leave, Moderation reserves the discretion to declare the RP laws void if they appear to have fallen into disuse. In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
