| Message | The national government needs one clear policy on an issue like abortion. I can understand gambling being left to locals but abortion policy? Too sensitive to have several different provisions. |
| Date | 01:24:16, January 13, 2009 CET | From | Wiedervereinigten Nationalisten | To | Debating the Health Reform Act of 2695 |
| Message | We would've supported had you not included the ridiculous nationalisations. |
| Date | 02:17:12, January 13, 2009 CET | From | Konstitutionelle Monarchie Partei | To | Debating the Health Reform Act of 2695 |
| Message | There are no nationalization provisions listed here. If you're talking about the sports clubs, it clearly states the government only funds sports clubs, not control it. |
| Date | 02:43:33, January 13, 2009 CET | From | Königstreue Sozialdemokrat 社会民主 | To | Debating the Health Reform Act of 2695 |
| Message | Government funding of sports clubs is a worthless expense. Private companies can manage them without the government. |
| Date | 02:48:02, January 13, 2009 CET | From | Konstitutionelle Monarchie Partei | To | Debating the Health Reform Act of 2695 |
| Message | I'm not a big fan of leaving everything to private companies however and creating a balance where both private/public funding can exist is about right. If the rest of the Diet can argee on this, perhap we can let local governments decide about this policy? |
