| Message | Why, exactly? People aren't numbers... you want to make them ones, though! |

| Message | Indeed, people are not numbers. But making them only numbers is not the point of creating Id cards. It's easier to control people's identity when it is required with such cards. They bring more security in deals between people and the State. And no, they are not killing civil liberties, since you don't use them to track people. |

| Message | Who says you don't? You are going to catalogue our citizens! A farmer brands his cattle, just to make it easier on himself, and make certain of their identities... and that is what you are doing to Dolgarians. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
