| Message | Ok, a very confusing combination bill, we don't really see the point in the decimal point tax rates, but the rest we agree with anyway. |

| Message | Hate 3. Note that this is called a tax cut but 2 is a Tax Hike. 4 is already being changed to something strict enough, so that doesn't save this bill. Gotta go with a no. |

| Message | The profit made by corporations is far more than the total sales of luxy goods, overall it is a tax cut. |
