| Message | OOC: Honestly, with bills like these, why can't anyone leave time for debate? The implications of the different articles are far reaching and somewhat contradictory. |

| Message | Because you aren't the dictator of the game. To bad if people do things different than yourself. |

| Message | OOC: I agree with M.A.U. on this one. I really dislike Omnibus bills unless they are discussed prior-to. It messes with positioning too much. I don't mind 5-6 articles in they have a clear theme to them but, something that doesn't warrants some debate in my opinion. No reason to be salty C.P.P. |
