| Message | This is ridiculous. How dare the conservatives put a stop to progrsssive legislation like this. I’m imperative that we allow deficits. They are how you get stimulus in an economy. We would like to see a greater deficit, actually. They’re not something to be afraid of, we have the ability to print money, and interests rates aren’t that high. We would ask the conservatives to read an economics text book. |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
