| Message | The safety of our most cherished monuments is at stake. Consider how some local governments, especially the particularly thrifty ones, could divert money otherwise spent on preservation on an unrelated project. We must keep this power close to home, and return it to the Empire. |

| Message | "Surely the "real owners" of the historical sites are the people themselves? Who is a better representative of the people than the government that they elect? Remember, that which some believe may differ from others. If one of these "local governments" chooses to neglect a site, it will be permanently disfigured. If we look over it, such a tragedy will never occur." |

| Message | The local government is also elected by the people and this matter should not be dictated by the central government. It is our firm belief that the local will have more understanding and appreciation for these historical sites. |

| Message | "The local government of Abure is elected by the peope of Abure and only the people of Abure, but their neighbors have no say. The fact that you have attempted to use my own reasoning to support your side means that you accept my reasoning as true, but you neglect the parts of reality that deny your position. Every person owns these monuments. Why should they not all have a say in what happens to them?" |
