Description[?]:
Members of Congress, The public sector is more efficient and more cost effective at providing services to citizens than the private sector, by bringing our trains back into public ownership we will save a lot of money for the consumer because they can be run with customer welfare as the main priority, rather than private profit. This combined with the ability to provide a higher quality of service means that it makes economic sense to renationalise. Fran Perking Leader of the Secularist, Socialist Party of Baltusia |

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. |
