| Message | The current proposal has my support. |
| Date | not recorded | From | Libertarian Alcoholic Par-tay | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | No way. Unless a company is polluting somebody else's private property by say, dumping chemicals there, then they aren't breaking and laws. I guess I would compromise and support the "guidelines but no enforcement" option, though. |

| Message | What's wrong with the current proposal? |
| Date | not recorded | From | Libertarian Alcoholic Par-tay | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | The Libertarian Alcoholic Party are diehard free-marketers. The fewer governmental controls beyond basic property laws and measures against force, fraud and theft the better. |
| Date | not recorded | From | New Democrats of Rutania | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | New Dems also believe in the free market, but sometimes it needs help. There is no short-term market incentive to not pollute; regulations and fines can provide that to corporations. |
| Date | not recorded | From | Conservative Party | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | Against. In all honesty, no Capitalist in their right mind wants the bad publicity and press being a polluter brings you. |
| Date | not recorded | From | RSDP - Democratic Front | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | It seems that the current proposal would pass with 151 to 124, so I suggest we start voting. |
| Date | not recorded | From | Imperial Party | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | As you wish. ( as we can always try for another alternative if not) |
| Date | not recorded | From | Imperial Party | To | Debating the Industrial Clear Sky Act |
| Message | Although now that I come to think of it, I resent this, and probably would have gone for the second alternative. Despite actually being the creator of this bill. |

| Message | There's nothing wrong with voting against your own bill, right? |
