| Message | In recent oracle visits, we have grown concerned the Pan thinks our defenses weak. While we have allowed ourselves nuclear weapons, this legislation ensures that our arsenal grows by up to 20 new weapons a year -- and hopefully more. |
| Date | 01:04:19, August 04, 2005 CET | From | Imperial Selucian Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Plutonium Purchase Act |
| Message | This is stupid. There is no direct threat to our Empire, so there is no need to be arming. This move would simply create tension on the international stage and give us the impression of an aggressive, warlike nation. |
| Date | 01:11:52, August 04, 2005 CET | From | United For Pan | To | Debating the Plutonium Purchase Act |
| Message | If Invincible Pan is our lord, then all nations will know that we wish not to be agressive, but to merely frolic in the international system. But it is ye who reject Pan who make us seem bad. Don't blame the Plutonium. |
| Date | 02:39:49, August 04, 2005 CET | From | New Passive Militarist Party | To | Debating the Plutonium Purchase Act |
| Message | Having a small cache of nuclear weapons "just in case" is sensible. The astronomical build-up this bill proposes is preposterious, unnecessary, and ludicrously dangerous. |

If a player is allotted seats in a Cabinet bill and has not filled in names for the relevant candidate position, then the program will automatically fill in the positions with names which might not necessarily be appropriate for the Cultural Protocols. |
