| Message | So what about those Aldegarian farmers who have worked hard & bought extra land to increase their farm yield? You would just remove their land? We will never support this. |
| Date | 16:27:30, January 15, 2009 CET | From | Nationalists of Aldegar | To | Debating the Land Reform Bill |
| Message | The Nationalists of Aldegar agree with the Liberals, it removes the incentive for these farmers to work hard-imagine if you have just spent all your hard earned money on a new piece of land in order to increase your revenues during the next harvest just to have it taken away from you by the government for no reason. |

| Date | 01:39:52, January 16, 2009 CET | From | Liberal Progressive Party | To | Debating the Land Reform Bill |
| Message | It is amusing to think that the people who propose this bill (The Movement for the Third Republic) would be the ones in charge of this so called 'workers paradise', without having to actually perform the work. Its great to spout slogans such as 'its for the greater good' when your not the one busting your back only to see your hard work taken away. |
