| Message | " Let us respect the rights of All Alorians to choose! In Regards to Alcohol and Smoking, we should have a national policy. We also believe that Education is a matter to important to be left up to local governments, our citizens should be able to choose between public or private education where ever they go in Aloria. With the current law, we could see some states bringing in only private education, and some with only public education. All citizens deserve to have a choice of what education they want. Regarding interracial sex, the government needs to keep away from this issue, and get rid of the policy concerning it, it is none of the governments business who Alorians go to bed with!! |
