Message | "Mr Speaker, While this is obviously an improvement over the current state of affairs, we're not really that thrilled to refer people who cannot pay for freedom of choice to substandard public establishments. Ideally stuff like health and education services should be payed for by the state but delivered by competing private entrepreneurs so that everyone can have freedom of choice and not just the rich. It's both better for the customers, more fair and equal, and more cost-effective." Rocco Moody LD Spokesperson for Health and Social Services |

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. |
