| Date | 00:07:01, August 30, 2008 CET | From | Reformed Conservative Party of Lodamun | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2629 |
| Message | The Liberal Party claimed on another bill that Lodamun has the world's best health care system. Clearly, they do not need more funding. If you believe the health system could be improved, I recommend you take a look at the bill calling for the addition of private health centers, which would not increase are national expenditures! |
| Date | 00:50:31, August 30, 2008 CET | From | The Liberal Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 2629 |
| Message | Who said that we think our health care system needs change? Do not put words in our mouths! More funding will allow an increase in staff and hospitals, though not absolutely needed, it is still beneficial for our citizens. |
