| Message | That would all depend. If the government operates the higher education, cost would be much, much lower. OOC: Do you expect me to pull numbers out of my ass? :-p |
| Date | 04:54:55, May 27, 2008 CET | From | Hutori Conservative Council | To | Debating the Revolutionary Communist Bill: Higher Education, Guaranteed Future |
| Message | Again, the communists use the excuse of a post-war Hutori as a catalyst to further their own agenda. The communists should just admit it - they advocate huge government for no reason other than their lust for power and control. |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
