| Message | Grimaldo Simonette, ULD Chairperson: I will NOT give away half of my income for literally no reason, this is theft and redistribution, something on which your ideology is based; the total lack of justice, based on what? "Justice"? No! Justice is giving people what they deserve, and we should reward intelligence, hard work and craftiness, as well as ambition and perseverance. |

| Random quote: "Civil disobedience. . . is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem." - Howard Zinn |
