| Message | This proposal, as it stands, would completely wreck the Federal Budget, apart from being an intrusion on what should be (but it still is not) the decision of local governments. We would support PT subsidies for the elderly and disabled, maybe even a discount for young people and students, but nothing more. |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
