| Message | This is a re-ocurrance of the Nuncirists who formerly held the this nation under their despotic grasp. The titles of "Prefecture" and "Praetor" were both utilized by the terrorists, but it does not suprise us that the supporters of this bill are sympathetic towards these mass-murderers who tortured and slaughtered millions upon millions of innocents. The most cruel thing about these terrorists was that they just didn't commit a genocide of the Wantunis, but they also murdered numerous Solentians. FIP President George Jerillio |

| Message | What are you turning this country into? An elitist sector where the rich can subside and watch as the working classes break their backs so that the wealthy can reap in an even greater profit? Baseball to "badminton"? What is this? A paradise for the few who can afford it???! Chamber of "Higher" Representatives...what is that supposed to mean? This is nothing but a direct turn for the rich and the corrupt who have a stranglehold on this current majority coalition. Changing the retirement age from 60 to 75?!! What do you want? The citizens of this country who actually do physical work to die before they can retire happily??!!! This is an outrage!!!!! The Federal Republic and many of the titles and traditions that still remain were founded because the people wanted a desperate change from the Nuncirists and the Communists. What reasoning and proof do you have that the people, not you, want a change? FIP Senate Speaker Thiris Landson Jr. |

| Message | One more thing, I remember that the People Party and Supreme President Timothy Cooper voted and successfully made the retirement age 60...what has changed the party's ideological stance on the retirement age since? FIP First Ranking Senator Richard Lydon |
