| Message | -Delegate Gregory Johnsson stands from his chair- Mr Speaker, I would like to bring to debate this issue of source code. We are to be a free nation, Mr Speaker, and thus the freedom of choice should exist across our nation! I would like the power to choose where my source codes come from, it is not up to the government to decide! |

| Message | -Delegate Rick Romas speaking- I see what you are trying to stay, but sometimes the government needs to step in. Sometimes, the government needs to protect the people, and the current law is doing that. |

| Message | -Gregory Johnsson continues- Are you, a member of the federalist party, pushing for government intervention! This is insanity! The people are clever enough to make their own decisions. |

| Message | -Rick Romas still stands- But some are not clever enough to stop the cunning people to try to get credit cards, bank no., I.D, and etc. If you see someone outside with blood on a knife they are holding, do you grab a weapons and attack or call the cops? What is your chioce? |

| Message | -Delegate Julias Napoleon- All source code should be open and transparent, and nothing should be hidden from the people. Unless it can be argued that taking away a government stance on source code can somehow lead to more open source software being developed, we will be voting "no." |

| Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
