| Message | I will be perfectly honest with my fellows. This is an agenda setting proposal. I believe in all points, and I'm not intending it to screw anyone else up, I just noticed that my own party status had gotten strange and off-target. |

| Message | The government recommends food safety standards, but they are not enforced upon businesses??? The PCP believes that the government should basically allow industry to poison the populace, if they wish? |

| 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. |
