| Message | Rest assured that privatization of education would just mean opportunities for entrepreneurs to work with the government to offer high-quality education. It will have no effect on the student's curriculum. |

| Message | It will have an affect on the school’s curriculum, as it will make it politically viable to neglect public schools and even privatize those schools.Is the GRP naive enough to believe that entrepreneurs will merely settle for a 2 tier system of education without subverting the public education system? Isabel Garcia Prime Minister of Gaduridos |

| Random quote: "Colonialism or imperialism, as the slave system of the West is called, is not something that is just confined to England or France or the United States. The interests in this country are in cahoots with the interests in France and the interests in Britain. It's one huge complex or combine, and it creates what's known not as the American power structure or the French power structure, but an international power structure. This international power structure is used to suppress the masses of dark-skinned people all over the world and exploit them of their natural resources." Malcolm X |
