| Message | Again, we have no strong views on this. So, if it were put to the vote after the election (and assuming that you got some seats), we would be willing to vote swap this for a bill of our own. |

| Message | We cannot allow the citizens of our great nation to kill themselves with recreational drugs. We place suicidal jumpers into mental institutions for attempting to kill themselves, what is the difference with rec drugs. They are bad for the country's well being, and bad for the populace. We should outlaw them completely, rather than have the decisions made on a local level, and DEFINITELY NOT legalize them. |

| Message | Pardon me, Liberty. Did I hear correctly? You're legalizing drugs? OH MY GOD!!! |

| Message | We're just trying to raise the visibility of our progressive and permissive views on morality and civil liberties, respectively. And technically we're not legalizing drugs. The right to determine drug policy is that of local government (I assume a great many have legal drug policies considering the permissive nature of Dolgaria's counties, with the notable exception of those freaks in Karzon who insist on being different from us mainlanders). I'm just revoking their right to determine it, and having an overall legality of drug use. In short, this is more a federalism issue than a moral one. =) |

| Message | REgardless, I have to disagree with the whole issue in question. I support the current local government position, but not so much so if they are passing prodrug legislation. |

We will seek to improve the lives of the people around us. This struggle will be as costly as the struggle against the bourgeois army, and indeed will be even more damaging to the enemy.” - Comrade X, former Hulstrian politician |
