| Message | Members of Parliament -- I have no difficulty supporting a bill that will reward the hard-working for their labor; this bill would do that, but I would like more information regarding how the loss of income would affect our national budget before supporting this measure on the floor.

| Message | OOC: I checked the national budget to see what would happen, but I was wondering on two separate changes. If I remember correctly there should still be a small surplus. Check again if you feel the need. But it also said not to consider the national budget page fully operational. |

| Random quote: As for rape, of course, that is a direct consequence of the capitalist system of oppression. Capitalism relies on fuelling division and resentment to sustain itself, and so it sets men against women, race against race and so on. Men rape women because they are being oppressed by capitalism, so they take it out on women. Under Communism, there will be no rape, because there will be a full and natural harmony and equality between the genders. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
