Description[?]:
| Augustinian Law on Economic Liberty Quirites, The extremist Communist government has fallen and so too shall their disastrous statist policies. It is time to restore economic freedom to Selucia and free the hard-working Selucian from government overreach. A safety net, designed to protect the least fortunate, will naturally remain in place. But unlike the Communists, this government recognizes that charity is an individual responsibility. We need to allow the poorer among us achieve self-reliance before pushing them into the hands of the government. Minerva Augustina Aedile of Trade and Industry |
