| Message | OOC: Why dont you listen for a change? I've said countless times that the deficit is there to grow our economy for OOC reasons. The game mechanics dont take deficits into account so the best way to grow GDP is through a deficit! That's the only reason we have one, we dont RP having one, its just for OOC reasons! |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
