| Message | And if a majority of the union does not want to walk out, why are they to suffer at the whims of Union bosses? |

| Message | Suffer? What sort of extralegal powers do union bosses have in this country? Free association, my friends. If the people do not like the structure of their unions, let them form new ones. Or retake control of them internally. What business is it of ours? |

| 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. |
