| Message | Remove Articles V and VI, and you have our full support. |

| Message | The proposal is OK except of the articles 6, 7 and 8. Unless you remove them the CDA will vote against the proposal. PS: the fact that you put a constitutional proposal in your bill, makes that two-thirds of the legislature has to support it. This also goes for non-constitutional proposals as they are in the same bill as the constitutional one. |

| Message | Hmmm....you'ev added new proposals!! Just to clarify, it is now articles II, VI, VII and VIII that we object to (tax, cannabis, electoral system and slander laws). Remove them, and we can support this! (In the case of tax - it should equal zero!) |

| Message | I've taken out VI, VII, and VIII. Article 2 must stay. I support a tax cut but not dropping it to zero instantly. I would like to see it go down gradually. Therefore I request my partner RIR to support this bill as it is and to create its own tax bill with another tax cut. (A range of 10 to 15 is my aim.) |
