| Message | Children should learn valuable life skills through grueling hardship, not through posh tax-dollar draining nurseries. Furthermore, disadvantaged children should not receive vouchers. They should either get a job, or serve as mobile organ banks to keep their superiors fit and healthy. |

| Message | Article 1 we might get behind, with some convincing. As for the rest? Not a chance. |
| Date | 07:40:54, August 01, 2007 CET | From | Permissive Social Union | To | Debating the Free Education to Kids bill |
| Message | We echo the AMP here. Article one, on it's own would probably get our backing. As the bill currently stands, no. |
| Date | 21:53:03, August 01, 2007 CET | From | AM Radical Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Free Education to Kids bill |
| Message | We will support as a good first step away from the monolithic, statist educational system currently in place. |
| Date | 07:37:58, August 02, 2007 CET | From | Riot of Lone Romantics | To | Debating the Free Education to Kids bill |
| Message | I will remove all articles, except for article 1. Progression is the matter at hand here. |
