| Message | We oppose with utmost objection. The "capitalist machine" is driven by employees AND employers, and the employees as producers have rights to several things. Noting that the government does little to intervene for workers' rights, labor unions are the only way for them to achieve livable wages and retirement. And what is so wrong with questioning? Questions advance freedom of thought and thus advance human progress. |

| Message | Precisely. The individual should be able to choose whether or not they want to be a member of a union. What's your point? The Bodhi Party certainly believes it speaks for more people than the Royal Party. This legislation would limit the freedom of choice among citizens of Wantuni. That is unacceptable. |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
