| Message | Supported, but for fun we like more bill descriptions, like whether this is going to be a wholly public and 'free' service, or if it's going to be a corporation run by publically appointed people, like the BBC, or if it's run by government department, or any other kind of whacky variation. |
| Date | 02:39:43, December 06, 2005 CET | From | Moderate Democratic Party | To | Debating the Media Nationalization Act of 2151 |
| Message | Supported. Once we posted this bill and it passed, but then the party that was the ''one'' for this nation privatized them again because he didn't want that the nation will spend money on those kind of things. And we also like more bill descriptions like JLS. |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
