| Message | "This bill contains no reason for being. The description does not argue for why the bill should exist, nor does it explain it. It's just a copy of what laws will be changed. The government votes no on this, and asks the gentlemen from the Social Democrat Party to please explain their bills in the description. Thank you." -- Kenner Giles |

| Message | "This will be no problem Mr. Director I am in fact used to doing that but after being in so many different countries where that is not a common act, I will stand and will state my reasons for each bill from now on as well as observance of the one day rule, however The Social Democratic Party will always follow the one day act, however on the weekends we will introduce bills but we will leave them for one day and then we willl propose it." However referencing to the bill before us I rise in support of the bill my party introduced.Currently in Keymon there is in fact poor families and large ones Mr. Director and it does put a strain on those families when it comes to providing food,clothing, and shelter, Mr. Director doesen't it sound wise that we give the hard working and be a country of generosity and give help those who are the worst off? They say Mr. Director that you can judge a people by how well they treat their worst off, and Mr. Director honestly how well do you think that we could be judged? --James Anderson, SDP President |

| Message | "Interesting question. However, I feel that child benefits to large or poor families - this is Keymon, where few people are poor - would unduly benefit immigrant kafuris and other minorities who represent a demographic time bomb in Keymon. It would hurt the majority population. That does not seem wise to me!" -- Director General Kenner Giles |

| Message | "Mr. Director what seems wise about discriminating aganist ethnic groupes, as well there are as well ethnic Keymons who are poor, and so you are going to put xenophobia and racism ahead of caring for your own Keymons? Mr. Director you should really re-evalutate what you say." James Anderson, SDP President |
