| Message | We believe that people should be able to go to private clinics and be able to get good care at them through heavy regulation. We also believe that all citizens should get free pharmaceutical drugs. I'll let this debate run for a good time. |

| Message | The LGC supports private enterprise but thinks that people should be the regulators and not the government. As for free drugs, they are of course not free. Every citizen pays for them just with this plan there would be the extra cost of a government program added to the cost. Never forget we are the government and what the government pays for is what we pay for. |

| Message | Yes, I see you point. We see your point of the people being the judge, but some people cant tell what is safe and isn't and the government will make sure that the services are at code. So, in reality both of them will judge as a safety precaution. Yes, the government will have to pay for the program. But, look at the surplus, surely a medicinal program won't cost 140 billion of DDO. The citizens taxes don't increase so, no they don't pay any more or less. |
