| Message | We already lowere dit two percent, if we are to have the funds to spend on the betterment of our nation and have the corporations pay a socially responsible rate, we had best keep it at 18 percent. Obviously, we'll vote no. |

| Message | Given the recent tax cuts, this is not a prudent move at this time. Clearly, we must keep our tax rates competitive, but the hit in revenue from a cut this deep would imperil our budget and add to our debt load. We might, however, consider a more moderate corporate tax cut (say, 15%) in return for the NLP's support on the vital issue of allowing school prayer. |

| Message | Lets keep the current tax rate so we can afford to give our people free and universal health care. |
| Date | 05:45:22, August 02, 2005 CET | From | Democratic Centre Party of Gaduridos | To | Debating the Corporate Tax Act |
| Message | We think this is an affordable tax cut that will help boost our economic competitiveness. |

| Message | Cutting corporate taxes every two years helps no one. |
