"Socialism, the ideology of failure, the philosophy of envy, the creed of ignorance. Inherently, it is the equal sharing of misery. Socialists are mislead idealists. Socialism seeks to pull wealth down. Capitalism seeks to raise the impoverished. Socialism would destroy private interests, capitalism wishes to preserve them. Socialism attacks the preeminence of the individual, exalting the rule. Capitalism raises the man, allowing him to achieve. Socialism provides safety in numbers. That is good, if you like to trade your identity for a number."-Scandinaviayan politician on Socialism

"You are wrong, we do tolerate other ideologies. It's just that we generally dislike liberals and progressives who dislike religion and frown upon our conservatism and capitalism, all while preaching a lie of tolerance. People like you are welcome... it's just that we tend not to listen to your inane drivel."
~ Joint President Hadro Ironhorn to a visiting foreign Progressive

Run your nation using a libertarian system only leads to ruin. Running your nation as a corporation is the only way to ensure that no man, woman, or child is living in the streets and that everyone can receive equal wealth.
