| Message | This ludicrous ideology of having no tax - your term "economic freedom" - is fraught with danger. One Nation will not support this!! |

| Message | Technically it is only about sales and corporation taxes. The government needs money of course, but to tax every little source of income we discourage people to invest in our economy. I think the loss in taxes will be compensated by a growth in GDP, and, hence, more income tax. |

| Message | Why put the burden on income earners? All sectors of the community must have responsibility - 10% tax of profits by corporations will not deter them from investing in this great nation. |
