| Message | Although the Indigo League supports the arts, we believe that subsidizing all artists is not the way to go. Such a policy would simply cost too much under the current budget and we would have to decrease the amount given to each recipient. Larger subsidies to artistic institutions will be more effective in promoting the most talented artists in our nation. Sebastian Langdalen (IL) Education/Culture Spokesperson |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
