Message | The Flag is the symbol of the Nation, at the moment if someone sees a product with the Flag on it then they dont i comes from the Department or the government of Cildania and therefore they know its a guarantee of a certain level of quality. If we take away that regulation, let any businessman attach it to his product be he Cildanian or not than it will bring our fine nation into disrepute by linking us to whatever substandard productions should the servants of international finance attach it to. |

Message | the flag is merely a symbol, nothing will change if you burn a single flag or use them in a Coco-Colo commercial, unemployment won't go down, the GDP won't increase, the students won't go smarter... bla... bla... bla... so why bother? it's only a symbol -Barack C. Norris, Spokesperson and Hairstylist of the RAwL Party. |

Message | Clearly you didnt read the initial statement of our party on this issue. Overseas the Flag is seen as a symbol of Cildania and Cildanian quality and if we lose the sole ownership of the symbol, if we allow foreign sweats shops to pump out cheap foreign goods at the expense of our name it will only do CIldania harm. |

Random quote: "The moral justification of capitalism does not lie in the altruist claim that it represents the best way to achieve 'the common good.' It is true that capitalism does, if that catch-phrase has any meaning, but this is merely a secondary consequence. The moral justification for capitalism lies in the fact that it is the only system consonant with man's rational nature, that it protects man's survival qua man, and that its ruling principle is justice." - Ayn Rand |
