| Message | We do believe that people should be able to keep most of what they earn but I also support putting limits on what jobs can earn like footballers etc... should earn little and doctors, nurses people essential to society should get more money. |

| Message | That makes no sense TNP! They get paid alot because private companies own them and pay them as they like........ If you nationalize our sports teams, i can bet you we'll only have patriots, and not the skilled athletes. The only way you'll get them, is by forccefully making them work. |
