| Message | We did not suggest that you are here to promote the existence of our "'anarcho'-capitalist mob'. We merely assumed (perhaps erroneously) that you actually want your bills to pass and your bills are more likely to pass if they are supported by the parties with seats. By using the information we provided you, you could increase the likelihood of passing articles which you support. For your further information we would now support articles 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 8. By using this information you can increase the chances of accomplishing 7/9ths of your agenda but whatever, it's your call. |
