Message | ... While I never endorse individual power among Providences, the quality of the power stations would not improve much if corporations use shoddy wiring policies. And monopolies is certainly not a good idea with societal necessities, because they have no reason to improve the quality. We may be socialists, but we understand capitalism. However, this is a slow step in the correct direction. |

Message | "So, only a single private company owns and mantains ALL national power grid? It is fun that LSA say that they understand capitalism, this is not capitalism. We have laws against monopol, and we in AFP will not tolerate a law that regulate the free market and creates monopol. We agreed with article 1." Susi von Engelbrecht |

Message | If capitalism works so well, why is it that it ceases to work when someone wins? You constantly need to break apart the "Victors" before they become to powerful. Why is it that you fear your own system? Monopoly is the end all of capitalism, when someone succeeds. Your system, by definition, requires everyone to lose. John Val Jean |
