From | Evil non-Internationalist Communist Part | To | Debating the Privatization of Power Grid | | Message | This bill is evil.
Companies will just team up, raise the prices very high. There are no competitors since the creation of facilities, power lines, converters, etc. will be to expensive for companies to offer another option. |

From | Liberal Imperialist Party | To | Debating the Privatization of Power Grid | | Message | That's called an "ogligrachy" and it's illegal, although I agree that this is a silly bill because competition cannot operate over a national grid. Still, I shall vote in favour so my stats dont get screwed. |

From |  Freedom Party | To | Debating the Privatization of Power Grid | | Message | I have every right to do that, i asked wouter for this power to do exactly that, its a vote or complete removal. I forced the green party bills to vote as they arent coming back and it had a lot of good debate in them |

From | RSDP - Democratic Front | To | Debating the Privatization of Power Grid | | Message | A Mod should have the right to REMOVE bills, not decide in the place of players whether they want to move bills to vote in their current forum. As a libertarian, you should have known that. And have I not the right to complain if I see an injustice? |
