| Message | OCC: Well. I use to think this way. But let's look at it how most real nations have it. Even Spain. A 14 year old, in The United States, may get a job at a grocery store, be a life-guard, and work at any job that doesn't involve and isn't near heavy machinery. I see what Fortenohfiv means now. I think I am going to have to vote a no to this one. Because, if a kid wants money, he can go get a job at the local gas station. ~Hope~ |

| Message | If children work, they won't have time to study or will be too tired to do it. This will lead to an impoverishment of the education, children leaving school and eventually a long-term increase of poverty and social differences. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, it is the responsibility of players to ensure the candidate boxes on their Party Overview screens are filled in with appropriate names. If a player is allotted seats in a Cabinet bill and has not filled in names for the relevant candidate position, then the program will automatically fill in the positions with names which might not necessarily be appropriate for the Cultural Protocols. |
