| Message | Quirites, Anything that does not satisfy the conservatives is described as "communism", which is quite funny and shows a clear lack of political knowledge, at least on the part of Hon. Libitina, in addition to the fact of opposing communism and democracy as two things incompatible, when its their own governments the ones that have done the most damage to the recently recovered democracy of Selucia, by applying their moral roller.

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
