| Message | Most of Sekowo's food crops are'nt grown on farms in the countryside, they're grown in large Urban farming facilities in the cities. |

| Message | While I do not know that you could claim that MOST of Sekowo's foodcrops are grown in those, you can certainly claim that many do. Ironically, anyone proposing a repeal of that law would probably find enough support to pass it now. Thanks for pointing this out, DSP. |

| Message | They've been around for fifty-seven years and have been encouraged, it would make sense. |

| Message | Land reclamation was also part of that bill. And more than 40% of Sekowo's food was, at the time of that bill, grown in Sekowo. |

| Message | Yes, land reclamation in cities, like unused building lots and fields and things like that. |

| Message | Didn't we just vote this law into existance, I think we should not waffle so much. |

| Message | We would like to point out the hypocrisy of the FDP which claims itself to be a lIbertarian party yet will follow the whims of a tiny party for purely political reasons and vote for a very unlibertarian issue. |

| Message | Compromise can sometimes be an important part of politics, DSP. That said, after extensive party discussion, we have decided that we cannot justify supporting this bill at this time. |
| Date | 22:41:20, February 28, 2008 CET | From | Free Democratic Party | To | Debating the PPS - Land Reform Landless Peasantry in Arms. |
| Message | The DSP claims to be pro-freedom and yet is anti religious and anti-free market, both anti freedom stances. |

| Message | Fighting for secularity is hardly a bad thing, and the only thing we've actually ever done that could be percieved that way was voting against allowing public officials from wearing blatant religious things while doing their job. Economics have nothing to do with freedom. |

| Message | Actually, no one who does not have freedom of the wallet can truly claim to be free, DSP. Also, that's certainly not the only thing, though it is definitely one thing. |

| Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
