| Message | You call yourselves Socialist, but you ignore the diversity in biology, in favour of conservative ideals in determining the level of one's responsibility? We set a test that any citizen can take as soon as they reach 12. They don't have to take it, but if they take it, and they pass, they're allowed to vote. If a citizen hasn't passed the test by the time he/she is 24, he/she may still be considered an adult, but before 24, he/she must take a test. If he/she passes the test, even as early as 12, he/she may be considered an adult and given the right to vote. Thanks for taking democracy away. We expected nothing better from fake Socialists.

| Message | You are powerless. It's the other 3 houses that have the power to pass the bill, not you. It doesn't matter to me, anyway. The public will see them as flip-floppers, and since they all share the same stance, their supporters will be split among each other. Let's imagine as low as 36% of the population prefer the current law, and as high as 64% prefer your proposal: - I will have 36% support, based on this bill - The 64% support, for your proposal, will be split among the 4 of you, so you only get 16% each. |
