| Message | The government gives work to the poor. We can't trust the private sector to do it. RFP. I would support a steeper increase. |

| Message | What?That is simply wrong. We have an unemployment rate of 6,97 %!! That is low when you compare this with other nations. Please read the facts and then speak! |

| Message | The only reason we have such a "low" unemployment rate is because we have such a huge public sector. But the Socialists will not be satisfied until every single person who wants a job can get one and the private sector stops being able to force workers to compete for wages. "100% real employment!" that's our mantra, and the private sector refuses to support that call, so we have to use their taxes to fund poor relief programs. |

| Message | All that the Republican's love, you mean. We're not interested in creation of wealth. Instead, we are interested in making sure people have what they need to survive and have a decent life. If creation of wealth was the priority of a socialist society, then it wouldn't be socialist. It would be the exact opposite of that. And jobs will always exist, with or without the capitalist. You mean to tell me that without a capitalist, roads won't need to be paved? People will stop demanding clothing, food, televisions, cars, and medicine? I don't think so. Those jobs will always be there, needing to be done, with or without the capitalist who exploits needs and wants for his own profit. And without capitalism in the way, a democratic institution can fill the vacuum and provide those jobs to people. The institution would be run by the workers themselves, and things that people need and want would be provided at cost, with the previous profit saved by the consumer. |

Let us make a exampel.George(for exampel) found a sofware company.He invest his whole money.He works hard form monday till saturday and even ond sunday.He didn't see his family.After years he makes finally profit.But then the gouverment comes.He must pay so much tax on his profit that he must close his business. Is that what the gouverment want? I hoped you read the newspaper and a lot of peopel lost their job because of this high taxes. And can you call a state quota of 13 % high?? Please, read the facts and then speak. A gouverment cannot control the economy!! |

| Message | This bill is moderate. "George" keeps 65% of his profit (that is money left over AFTER ALL costs are paid). And the Government CAN control the economy. It did well at it before your Party began changing everything. |
