| Message | No liberty is reduced, you can still cross the border as freely as ever. It is only the legal documents which are made harder to get... and thus more valuable. The people crossing our borders are vital to Beluzian industry and commerce. Why turn them away? |

| Message | ooc: honestly I am simply having trouble coming up with ideas for bills. Most of the laws have already been changed to conform with the Zogist platform. |
