| Message | Article 2 is indeed a bit strong, but we can always change it back afterwards, because the other two articles are really very good! |

| Message | Yeah you're right, it's better to pass 2 good bills at the cost of one negative one. Besides, the negative one would be blamed on the capitalists, even if they vote against. Capitalists who lead the nation don't make good friends by taking away private property. At least the government CAN take away private property. |
