The debate, actually the set up monologues, took place the evening before bringing nothing new to the public opinion.
The artist uses the Emergency Form he introduced to ER at his first day of participation (ER 20070903).
He prints on it a b&w photo of a TV screen on which appears the debate set up and his comment underneath.
"SECURE THE PUBLIC SPACE
MONEY IS NO VALUE
Politicians respond to their duties like accountants of a grocery store, counting coins to the one or the other side.
What they show to us, is that to be a politician is a profession like any other. The goal of this profession is by any means to gain the most possible power. Just like in a video game.
Human communities though, need values of co-existence and a secure public space in which individuals can function. And these are needed more than any idol of power and richness."
