| Message | While we're going to vote against this because we oppose the governments plans, we are supporting this as a superior way of going about raising earnings. OOC This seems perfectly reasonable. But Liberal voters wouldn't agree. >.> |

| Message | We support this though. 15% really seems reasonable. |
| Date | 21:19:43, June 16, 2008 CET | From | Athlorcaean Liberal Party (R) | To | Debating the New Sales and Corporation Taxes |
| Message | If this is to get us out of debt you really shouldn't support the tax exemption for religious income |

| Message | The tax exemption is better than the current situation. I personally would be fine with just taxing non-charitable profit, but we shouldn't tax charity for the government to use. |

| Random fact: Party candidates for head of state elections are not visible to the public. This means that you cannot see who will run and who will not, which adds another strategic element to the elections. |
| Random quote: "The main problem of the left is that it has been traditionally divided and unable to reach agreements between different leftist views, whilst the right has almost always moved in the same direction by giving concessions to different rightist points of view." - Aelius Celer, former Selucian politician |
