| Message | You do realize that the law proposals with the word "free" in them aren't really free right? You have to make somebody somewhere pay for them. Have you asked them for their money? |
| Date | 05:17:59, April 11, 2007 CET | From | Cildanian Socialist Party | To | Debating the Health Issues |
| Message | Yes, we realize that. We also realize that this will help people who can't afford health care or pharmaceutical drugs. |

| Message | There are already charities that help people that can't afford health care. It's great that you want to help the poor, so donate to these charities like we do!! Don't pass laws that steal money from people and force private clinics out of business! |
