Message"Don't you realize this will DEVASTATE the poor and working class? Do you not realize this will destroy our economy?

You maim, seriously need to read up on economics. Apparently you know absolutely nothing about it.

And, judging by your other rhetoric and ideas as well, you seem to not fully appreciate ambition, perseverance, determination, relentlessness, willpower, dedication, empathy, intellectualism, charisma, personal responsibility, hard work, individuality, independence, and other personal qualities that are amongst the most important personality traits a human being can have. You should read more literature, study more philosophy, study ethics and logic, increase your self-esteem, and not only take a little more responsibility for your own actions, but expect more personal responsibility for others as well.

If you want to intentionally destroy the lower class and make their lives hell, cause millions of lay-offs, discourage teen summer jobs and thus decrease work experience and expertise in the workforce when these kids eventually get real jobs, wreck the economy, kill small business, create monopolies, and create a culture of interdependence, irresponsibility, stupidity, apathy, senselessness, collectivism, laziness, and weak-mindedness, then this is your first-step bill."

Chairman of the GJA
Foreign Minister of the SJHB

Random fact: All role-play must respect the established cultural background in Culturally Protected nations.

Random quote: On 7th February 4281 a group of renowned Metzist experts from all across Terra met in Haldor to form the International Committee for the Estimation of the End Date of Capitalism (ICEEDC). With the assistance of a powerful computer, they calculated that capitalism will terminate Terra-wide on 6th November 4320, and in Dorvik on April 17th 4310. We have no reason whatsoever to believe these very eminent and learned scholars are wrong. They have never been wrong about anything before. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party
