| Message | *from the floor of Senate* Despite having just resolved this very issue, the FHE continues to display its blatant disregard for Solentia's citizens, economy and livelihood by introducing this bill. We Social Democrats firmly believe that the FHE does not know the first thing about economics. Economies of scale are the key to our wishes for a nationalized power grid. The definition of economics is how to best deploy resources, because resources are scarce in the sense that there will never be a perfect amount of most things to satisfy every possible problem. Different companies trying to scurry about and repair different parts of our national grid is wasteful, inefficient, and not very economical. The FHE should study up on basic economics before it continues to try and destroy Solentia's economy and infrastructure piece by piece, bit by bit. I yield back.
