| Message | There are certain areas of the country that it is not practical or readily available for a TOC to operate. However, the need for good public transportation is universal. Whereas the private sector TOC's will only offer enough rides as it remains profitable, the public TOC will be able to provide transportation across the nation, which will create jobs, increase economic traffic, stimulate tourism and travel, and help decongest national highways. We encourage an aye vote. Senator Ryan Schroeder |

| Random quote: First and second class seats on public transport shall be BANNED! We are all FIRST CLASS people, regardless of whether we are rich or poor and can afford or not afford to pay for a more expensive seat. From now on, all seats on trains, buses, trams, planes and so on shall be the SAME. We will all travel in the SAME way, TOGETHER. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
