| Message | We were slightly in favour up to article 5, but the illegalisation of the oldest profession is something we cannot countenance. |
| Date | 21:48:12, December 08, 2008 CET | From | Neo Kanist Rite Party of Sorbanika | To | Debating the Industrail reforms |
| Message | The Neo Kanist Rite Party would like to ask, merely in the sake of interest, why the Likaton Coalition of the Willing think that the illegalisation of prostitution should be not put in place. |
| Date | 00:01:14, December 09, 2008 CET | From | Liberal Conservatists | To | Debating the Industrail reforms |
| Message | Yes, indeed the oldest profession... but don`t you think it`s a bit out of place? Over the ages it has become more and more controversial, as well as in modern age it is one of the reasons of spreading dieseases. Many women or men do choose to go the easy way, leave education and start working in "the street" which makes them uneducated. For the sake of quick industralisation and the future of the children we should make it illegal. |
| Date | 03:23:21, December 09, 2008 CET | From | Likaton Coalition of the Willing | To | Debating the Industrail reforms |
| Message | We feel that the criminalisation of Prostitution punishes the victims of poverty, desperate circmstance, and those who genuinely wish to work in the sex trade. Better to protect, support, and legislate with the adult sector, rather than forcing it to the back streets and pimps. |

| Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
