| Message | "This allows for the State to assess the need for the museum, if the museum could survive on a commercial basis and would also represent the diverse culture of our Free Federation allowing for some variety in the museum system." ~Sasha Heist, DM |

| Message | We voted yes in the end, because we supposed that this would produce the same thing but probably save money in the process. |

| Message | No it doesn't do the same thing. This essentially privatizes the establishment of museums. Not the museums themselves, but the ones who build the museums. They have the incentive to cut costs and build shoddy museums, whereas the government is more likely to spare no expense. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, it is the responsibility of players to ensure the candidate boxes on their Party Overview screens are filled in with appropriate names. If a player is allotted seats in a Cabinet bill and has not filled in names for the relevant candidate position, then the program will automatically fill in the positions with names which might not necessarily be appropriate for the Cultural Protocols. |
| Random quote: “The people's war isn't just a war of destruction, it is also a war of construction. We will build new facilities, new hospitals, new farms. We will seek to improve the lives of the people around us. This struggle will be as costly as the struggle against the bourgeois army, and indeed will be even more damaging to the enemy.” - Comrade X, former Hulstrian politician |
