| Message | Mr. Speaker, The National Right seems to be unable to understand the difference between markets and capitalism as being forces diametrically opposed to each other and that a tax on luxuries would level the playing fields in favour of workers instead of corporations trying to sell consumerism to the masses. |

| Random fact: Did you know you can change the official name of your nation? All you need to do is draw up a new name that is in accordance with the Nation Renaming Guide, pass a bill proposing the name change with a two-thirds majority and then post a request to Moderation on the "Renaming Requests" thread. You can change city and region names in this way too. |
