Message | There is very little income tax in Darnussia, and even less government spending. We don't need exorbitant rates on corporate taxes, and with the poor already paying nothing in income taxes, a mild sales tax will not be too much of a burden. |

Message | Illogical mutterings. Before your party's...undemocratic intervention, my party in conjunction with the CP embarked on a long,careful, and thought out process of economic reform in Darnussia, removing the taxes on production(like corporate and income taxes), and adding taxes on consumption. Unfortunately, our economy is heavily based on consumption, and our exports are extraordinarily low. The corporate tax nets Darnussia very little at all, because you scared out many of the corporation by imposing such exorbitant rates. Good, care for the poor, but remember where you get the money to care for them. |
