| Message | The MAU is rather displeased with the ignorant morons with little to no understanding of economics voting for this bill; alas, it will not waste its breath debating the issue (unless asked to), as parties are more concerned with power than real prosperity and freedom - hence why a social democrat party would ally with an anti-freedom NatSoc party. Clearly, something is going on behind the scenes, and the MAU condemns the waves, greens, and the fascists for lying to the people and establishing a conspiracy to hold onto power at the expense of the prosperity of the people. |

| Message | The FRP agrees with the MAU's statement. |
