Description[?]:
| Very recently, a bill was passed to reduce the size of our national budget. http://82.238.75.178:8085/particracy/main/viewbill.php?billid=21762 Due to an unavoidable act of God(new ministries being added), our government has actually increased our budget size. We propose that the cut proposed by the Refuseniks be taken a bit further. Their budget was 22,901,000,000, this proposes to bring it to an even 20,000,000,000. For expediency, this will now be put to a vote, if there are any objections, I shall propose a corrective bill to address these. For the time being, I just want to restore our budget as quickly as possible. |

| Random quote: "Colonialism or imperialism, as the slave system of the West is called, is not something that is just confined to England or France or the United States. The interests in this country are in cahoots with the interests in France and the interests in Britain. It's one huge complex or combine, and it creates what's known not as the American power structure or the French power structure, but an international power structure. This international power structure is used to suppress the masses of dark-skinned people all over the world and exploit them of their natural resources." Malcolm X |
