| Message | This will get us out of our debt completely. It will give our nation a profit of around 100 billion SOL, I can't see what is bad about the proposed budget. To get out of debt you have to cut spending, if I'm correct one of your party members said that, a Mr. Bryan. "The solution to Government spending more is not to take more of the people's money but to cut what it is spending." This bill cuts what is being spent and gets us out of debt. I'd like you to open your eyes and see that there isn't anything wrong with this bill but you keep them shut. -Sam Kennedy, FRPP financial advisor. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
