| Message | Pardon, actually we do not like the second clause either, as it raises the profit tax a bit too high for our liking. |

| Message | Not only is this tax actually discriminatory to the poorer citizens of Rildanor in that it will prevent them from being able to afford luxuries, it will also result in an economic slowdown. The increased taxation of employment-driving corporations, including small family-owned companies, will result in layoffs of employees and the increased luxury tax will result in a decreased standard of living for all Rildanorians. Therefore, we wholeheartedly disagree with these proposals and advise our fellow parties to join with us in striking down these heinous "reforms". |

| Random fact: By default the head of government is the ultimate authority within a national government. In general terms, heads of government are expected to consult with cabinet colleagues (including those from other parties) before making significant decisions but they remain responsible for government action. |
