| Message | AND WHAT WILL THE FARMERS DO? You are crushing the economy by crushing all these companies and people. National unemployment rate will soar! What are you smoking over there in the GDP? |

| Message | I presume that the farmers will farm. We are crushing the companies, yes, but we are empowering the people, putting the command of the economy in the hands of the State which embodies the Dorvish race rather than the hands of fatcats and plutocrats. The unemployment rate will not soar - rather than leaving the economy to the cruel and profit-seeking interests of the plutocrats and the 'invisible hand' the State will exercise control over every aspect of the economy and so for the first time ever can guarantee full employment. |

| Message | This will not empower anyone except the GDP. |
