| Message | Mr. Speaker, we're not sure if national government should provide the means to local governments. National government could deal with the musea themselves. John Uyttebroeck LNC spokesman |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We agree with the NAL. National governments, especially those within the capital, can't be supported solely by donations or local government funding, especially with many cash-strapped municipalities, so we can't support that idea. Furthermore, eliminating copyright laws and placing them under commons is a blow to the rights of inventors. Thomas DeMay Spokesman for Education and Culture Member of the PLF Central Committee |

| Random quote: "If democracy is ever to be threatened, it will not be by revolutionary groups burning government offices and occupying the broadcasting and newspaper offices of the world. It will come from disenchantment, cynicism and despair caused by the realization that the New World Order means we are all to be managed and not represented." - Tony Benn |
