| Message | The key word is "about." They haven't yet. And even if they did, what does it have to do with Education? Is Education welfare now? |
| Date | 03:00:12, October 04, 2008 CET | From | Holy Eliyahu Confession | To | Debating the Budget proposal of July 2646 |
| Message | Education funding is not touched by this bill. |

| Message | OOC: I meant to say Health. Looked at the wrong one, I guess. Sorry. |
| Date | 08:26:26, October 04, 2008 CET | From | United Republics Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of July 2646 |
| Message | Looking at the budget now, we've cut health and education so much that some of the categories look too inflated. Foreign Affairs is equal to about 1/4 of education? I suppose that we might consider that a vital national function, however it now seems high. |
