| Message | The functions of government have been cut a minimum of 20% but no more than 40% from the current budget expenditures. These should bring them more into line with the more moderate tax cut bill just submitted. |

| Message | You know nothing of what you talk about, FSDP. If you "kindly" folks will notice, those are numbers where it says old and new budget. See where it says 49,600,000,000? That's the old budget. See where it says 29,900,000,000? That's the new proposed budget. Now let's do the math (statistics are hard for the left I know because they are products of state-run schools but...): That's just over a 36% cost REDUCTION in government expenditures. Of course, I wouldn't expect the FSDP to understand because it enjoys taxing the rich and poor alike and creating social programs that nearly bankrupted this nation during the last administration. But, hey, just like Stalinist Russia and North Korea, I expect the changing of history to serve the P.R. purposes of the minority coalition. A coalition which was resoundingly defeated in the previous elections despite their appeals to entitlements and government giveaways. The people of this nation want a fair and balanced budget; a budget you clearly did not deliver them, which is why you lost such a sizeable portion of seats. Remember that? |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
