Status[?]: passed

Description[?]:
Senators, It is our firm belief that there are few things more important to the people of this country than the cornerstone of modern civilization - electricity. With this in mind, we move to reform the industry to incorporate competition and capitalism in order to improve the service to our people. Countless tax dollars out of our citizens' pockets will be saved as we move away from ineffective, wasteful government management of power production. |

Random fact: Particracy does not allow real-life brand names (eg. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Microsoft). However, in the case of military equipment brand names it is permitted to use simple number-letter combinations (eg. T-90 and F-22) borrowed from real life, and also simple generic names, like those of animals (eg. Leopard and Jaguar). |
