| Message | No to all the above. We would also point out that this bill does not do as the description implies. i.e. it does not "clarify various technicalities of previously passed legislation." rather it changes previous legislation, there is no clarification of anything. |

| Message | "Libert or Bust" - Bust :-). I wouldn't have wanted to find out what "Libert" was anyway. |

| Random quote: "The moral justification of capitalism does not lie in the altruist claim that it represents the best way to achieve 'the common good.' It is true that capitalism does, if that catch-phrase has any meaning, but this is merely a secondary consequence. The moral justification for capitalism lies in the fact that it is the only system consonant with man's rational nature, that it protects man's survival qua man, and that its ruling principle is justice." - Ayn Rand |
