| Message | We believe that agricultural & industrial subsidies should be eliminated completely, and that the Finance Department's budget should be given a further cut. Other than that, the Budget looks very good. |
| Date | 20:10:36, November 24, 2007 CET | From | Order of Valtiel | To | Debating the Budget Act of 2490 |
| Message | The FPP and OP push YET another bill to cripple our government's ability to do it's job even FURTHER. It's a lovely con that they have going, they run on the idea that government is incompetent and then get into office and prove it. |
| Date | 21:48:19, November 24, 2007 CET | From | Freeminded People's Party | To | Debating the Budget Act of 2490 |
| Message | We'll vote for this, but with serious reservations; the next Budget will have to have the subsidy cuts that we specified in order to get our support. |

| Message | In response to the Seldonists, we believe that it is unhealthy for any group (such as government) to have too much power in our society. As well, it seems that those who want government to do the most end up doing the least good with their power, and usually abuse it. We believe in less government & running the government that we do have as well as possible. This is precisely what we are doing. |
| Date | 22:43:27, November 24, 2007 CET | From | Ordoliberal Party | To | Debating the Budget Act of 2490 |
| Message | This is only for time when we change our economy from socialistic to liberal. It will help smaller farmers find their place in free market. |
