| Message | Ovviamente sono d'accordo, e sono felice dei compromessi che PSQ sta proponendo su privatizzazione/nazionalizzazione...tuttavia vorrei indicare che per la proposta numero due, "A single private company owns and mantains the national power grid." è molto a rischio per il fatto di trust(monopolio), anche perchè non vi è regolazione di questa singola compagnia da parte dello stato, e per questo io ho sempre proposto l'opzione di multiple compagnie private, che almeno si regolano per mezzo della legge di mercato(concorrenza,competitività eccetra). |

| Message | Non siamo così d'accordo. Infatti lo spezzettamento della rete nazionale in varie società può portare ad una diseguaglianza di servizio a livello nazionale, come anche una più difficile risoluzione dei guasti. Perciò crediamo che a manutenzione e la gestione della rete debba essere data solo ad una società, mediante licenza. |

| Message | Contrari a queste poltiche ultracapitaliste che mettono a rischio i diritti dei cittadini più poveri e servizi basilari come l'energia. |

| Random fact: Particracy allows you to establish an unelected head of state like a monarch or a president-for-life, but doing this is a bit of a process. First elect a candidate with the name "." to the Head of State position. Then change your law on the "Structure of the executive branch" to "The head of state is hereditary and symbolic; the head of government chairs the cabinet" and change the "formal title of the head of state" to how you want the new head of state's title and name to appear (eg. King Percy XVI). |
