Message | Mr Speaker SOCIALISM! Take away from those who work the hardest and punish those who do nothing! And there is where you have the LPU. The free market made luthori strong. |

Message | Mr. Speaker, Our colleagues in this cabinet are doing well but we can not support them in reintroducing collective bargaining as it puts on on a slippery slope to reintroducing legal strikes. We FULLY support regulated stock markets but can not support this bill due to Article 1. I Yield |
Date | 18:24:54, July 17, 2016 CET | From | Falanges Party | To | Debating the Expansion of Services and Government Responsibilities |
Message | We agree with our allies IDP. We support article 2 but have reservations on article 1. If possible, we would urge our friends LPU to reintroduce a bill with article 2 only in it and will happily support. |

Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
Random quote: On 7th February 4281 a group of renowned Metzist experts from all across Terra met in Haldor to form the International Committee for the Estimation of the End Date of Capitalism (ICEEDC). With the assistance of a powerful computer, they calculated that capitalism will terminate Terra-wide on 6th November 4320, and in Dorvik on April 17th 4310. We have no reason whatsoever to believe these very eminent and learned scholars are wrong. They have never been wrong about anything before. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
