Message | While I understand a certain amount of powers should be left to the locals, a national stock exchange that is regulated by the national government is necessary for a productive trading environment. Otherwise, traders would have to wrestle with different regulations in different states. |

Message | So, that would only affect the states that wish to impose that kind of regulation, what gives? |

Message | I don't think you understand, every state would have to have its own trading market and each state would have to regulate its own market independently which is simply ridiculous. This is not even a case of state's rights, this is simple economic common sense. There is absolutely no reason to decentralize the stock market. Other policies, I can understand the arguments for, but this is simply ridiculous. The stock market has a massive influence on the national economy and thus should remain a national organization. |

Message | Actually, we will reverse our vote. We prefer a freer market without any regulation. |

Message | Mr Speaker, I would like to ask the Green Party to give me a more detailed description on why our party should vote either Yes or No on this bill. At the moment, our party is confused over whether by voting No on this, it will make our stance on the market in support of more regulation. We would also like to ask the Confederate Party what the benefit of this bill is. Thank you very much and we yield the floor to the cat under my table (laughter). Oh sorry. I have to get a new pair of glasses. I can't seem to see things your way (laughter). You get the joke? HAHA. Again, we yield the floor Rachel Jane Adams, A.P.S, PhD, A.S, M.Phil Shadow Spokesperson for Health MP for Parlos Decina's 20th District |
