| Message | These are all very distinct, and should be in separate bills. The JUP supports only the change to citizenship, everything else is problematic. For instance, why would we give a child benefit to rich families? That is nothing but a big waste of money. |
| Date | 02:28:14, March 22, 2009 CET | From | Marxist Universalist Democratic Party | To | Debating the Proposal to Introduce Community Diversity Through Racial Homogenization |
| Message | It's important to give benefit to rich families if the children are of interracial descent. |

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
