Message | The government has for too long regulated the day-to-day lives of the people. It is not the government's job nor its right to regulate the people, but to defend them and uphold their rights given to them by Elyon. With the passing of this Bill, the government will begin a new age of freedom to the people and the markets they demand. Though this is only the beginning, it is monumental that this Bill be passed in order that the people be free and prosperous. |

Message | For a Party who claims to serve God, this bill is hardly a reflection of our Hosian values. I cannot imagine the Church would support this, and we certainly do not. Giuliana Peralta Republican Coalition Representative of the Parliament of Egelion |

Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
