| Message | We must not compensate our education for war or to prepare for war. |
| Date | 04:56:18, March 23, 2008 CET | From | Conservative Ordo Malleus (COM) | To | Debating the Budget proposal of December 2549 |
| Message | Education is very important to our nation. This proposal only slightly reduces the education budget from the prior budget, the last one created by CAM, and keeps it in the general vicinity. This is a temporary budget that can be reversed when necessary. Also, this is to help fund Telamon's capability to defend itself. We are adamant about our non-aggression stance. -President Thorden Raxney Jr. |

| Message | Wisely said by the Republican Party, we must agree. - Vojislav Krkljus, Chairman of RRP |
| Date | 19:57:41, March 23, 2008 CET | From | Radical Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of December 2549 |
| Message | I believe we should strip the budget right back, in order to cut taxes. Our party proposes a new public infrastructure programme based on the back of loans, which will draw 60,000 unemployed men and women off the dole for two years and into employment. With the jobs created, this will have a 'multiplier effect' in which they will be able to pay taxes to repay the initial loans. This will allow us to cut income tax, to allow the electorate more money to finance the economy. This budget is therefore incompatible with our vision of the future. - Kristian Donson - Leader of the Radical Party |

| Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
