Message | Price regulation is not needed because the State already provides drugs to people with low incomes. Subsidies to drug research are difficult to control and we feel that the citizens should be consulted before diverting their money into the pockets of private companies as "subsidies". |

Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
