| Message | There is no need to privatise this, to say the government monopolises this is the same as to say it monopolises the passing of policy or ministerial salaries, we do not charge therefore there is no issue of unfair competition. Telephone lines are one vital and necessary to all our citizens both in business and private life and the government has no financial issues and so does not need the sale of this aspect of infrastructure to cover debts. Action will not support any action to open the phone lines of our people up to the exploitation of international finance. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
