Description[?]:
| We in the Conservative Party have been having exclusive meetings recently. To declare a policy towards our Health Care politics. As we stand for privatization and free market. We have a Bill which can help everyone satisfy their needs. We propose: Health care is private, but is paid for by the state for people with low incomes. If we did so, people would have the freedom too choose which kind of Health Care they want. And the ones who saves extra money to get some sort of exclusive Care should get so. If this Legislation passed, poor people would not suffer either. Because the State will pay for people with low incomes. And therefore securing that the poorest of our nation gets the care that is satisfying for their need. The 3rd positive effect of doing this is that we can cut the Health and Social Security by an huge amount. Not saying everything, as we have to take care of our poorest. If we did so. We could promote a tax relief for both the poorest and the Average Joe of this Nation. We believe this is the right way too go for everyone in this nation. As Joe Lodamun needs a tax relief now. Support freedom, tax relief, and taking care of the poor in the same way. There's only positive effects of passing this Bill. |

| Message | People still have a choice of what clinic to go to, private or public. We just have more public than private. We have never defined what low income is. Some people may have some money but not enough to pay for medical expenses, so they won't get the attention they need. I agree that we need to give tax cuts but not at the expense of the health of our people. Subsidies will eventually cost more in the long run than paying for public health care. Summarizing, I cannot support this. |

| Message | I have tried too define poor as the two lowest tax brackets in several of my tax cut proposels |
| Date | 14:28:57, June 15, 2008 CET | From | Lodamun Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Health Care Act |
| Message | And how will subsidies cost more in the long run? |
| Date | 14:59:16, June 15, 2008 CET | From | Republican Party of Lodamun | To | Debating the Health Care Act |
| Message | It's not going to be negative for Health. As private clinics will develop and bring competition to this case. And if a private clinic does anything wrong, they get complaints. Please support us in this, it's not going on expense of anything at all. Subsidies will never cost more than a full total public free Health Care. We have to give tax cuts for average Joe. And the ones who shall recieve this subisidy will be the two or three lowest brackets. The poor already have so many benefits. If we give a tax cut to the middle-class, they can pay for their health care. And the poorest will not have any negative effects from this legislation. |

| Message | The Conservative Party is going to write a report on Health Care. As it seems we need to analyze this case carefully and understandingly. |
