Description[?]:
| These things are vital to the government. Energy cannot be left to a private company as we cannot be sure if they will run or manage them as well as our government will. The post office is a vital service bills and letter are sent to millions of Telemonians each day and one lost peice of mail may wreek havoc on the life of one of our citizens and we must ensure that does not happen. As for Public Transportation we believe that this must be a free service. It will uncongest roads as more people use them due to the little to no cost. |

| 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. |
