| Message | Increased government spending is never the answer, due to the natural inefficiency of government. Instead, perhaps we should return the money we don't use. |
| Date | 20:52:50, May 11, 2008 CET | From | Mordusian Austrian Union | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2574 |
| Message | Addendum: Or, perhaps, keep the surplus for emergency spending. |
| Date | 22:35:04, May 11, 2008 CET | From | Federalist Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2574 |
| Message | Defense, Infrastructure, and possibly technology spending we can support. The rest is excessive and you are only paying for it with higher taxes. |
| Date | 07:49:10, May 12, 2008 CET | From | Federal Republican Party (UCF) | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2574 |
| Message | Same as federalist views. |
| Date | 19:02:42, May 12, 2008 CET | From | National Thomasian Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of October 2574 |
| Message | Investment in Education and the Environment is long term investment. We have got to ensure a future for Mordusia as well as short term concerns. |
