| Message | This still leaves us with a large surplus of 1,423,395,206 END What does everyone think?? |

| Message | Good job! But does the head of government reallly need an extra 50,000 END? |
| Date | 05:17:19, October 12, 2007 CET | From | Endralon Confederates Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of March 2469 |
| Message | I don't like this, this just increases our wasteful spending. Especially the large increase in the head of government. I really feel like anyone can see how that is waste, it doesn't benefit anyone...except for the head of government of course. |

| Message | Ha... Well your the head of government so its your call!! lol... |

| Message | I love how you called my increase of 50,000 END a "Large increase in the head of government" it is less than 0.02% of my budget proposal. |
| Date | 05:31:48, October 12, 2007 CET | From | Endralon Confederates Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of March 2469 |
| Message | But its a one third increase in the size of the head of government from before. I feel it be unnecessary. Of course, all the increases you made I feel to be unnecessary. We should be cutting spending, so we can in turn cut taxes and let people keep more of what they earn. |

| Message | Ya but then our education and health systems degenerate into farce.. And that will not happen on my watch as President of the party that has ministers over two departments that we are talking about.. Finance and Education... i will make a deal with you, if your gets passed, i will request my ministers to resign both of these positions. Because i personally will not be head of a department where half my funding has just become excess surplus that is just going to sit in our coffers doing nothing, when it could be improving the education that the young people of this country should be getting! |

| Message | I will vote against, Defence has been cut too much. |
| Date | 16:12:10, October 12, 2007 CET | From | Centralist Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of March 2469 |
| Message | I am in favor, these increases seem sound. However, I think you would get the support of the NSP if you increased defense a bit. It might have a chance of passing then. |

| Message | I don't really think simply pumping more money into our education system will make it any better, I attend public high school, trust me it's not the funds, its the motivation of the students. If my schools budget was increased by 200% I guarantee the kids who are already doing well, would still do just as well and the one who are failing, would still be failing. Besides, when we get that surplus that sits in the treasury that means we can then cut taxes! Which is great for everyone! People can keep more of what they earn, how can anyone, especially those who champion the rights of the poor, be against that? |

| Message | Tax rates are already at a generous enough level as it is thanking you.... |
