| Message | By changing this law, we belive that we will stop the use of industry as a piggy bank by capitalists who do not have the best interests of the people in mind. |

| Message | We must vote against this for now; the legislation is quite vague in that it does not specify which industries should be owned by the state. OOC: I know that's a limitation within the game, but perhaps you could specify this in the description should you propose this again in the future. |
