| Message | I don't believe this bill goes far enough. All energy should be nationalized. Hemp production doesn't need to be regulated, and the government should enforce the salary cap. |

| Message | The energy is good as it is, and we don't want the government to interfere in salary caps. |

| Message | And what the hell do you know is good for our people when we live in an apartheid state that not only doesn't even grant citizenship to our feline compatriots but also allows our expansive corporations to keep prices high on all the poor cats who just want to be able to turn on their stoves to heat up their milk. Shame on you, I say. And shame on anyone else who won't agree with me once I make my move to smash up the private monopolies in this nation and deliver the power, the services, and the voice back to the people! |
