| Message | See IMC, this is what happens when you play with statist ideologues.... you don't get your trainset. |

| Message | It is shocking to me how few areas of privatisation are covered by this "compromise". It might as well be a "let's throw most personal economic freedoms under the bus in order to maybe achieve some small increments of freedom in these limited areas." |

| Message | play with statist ideolgues or play with my own trainset? we appreciate your advice SCI. we regret giving so much security to the coalition for so little. we hoped stability would be a sufficient reward for our comprimise, but we are having to reconsider. |
