| Message | SV - do you seriously want those who earn less than 10.000 a month to pay 20 % tax?! Last time I checked that wasnt socialism |
| Date | 18:33:50, September 19, 2009 CET | From | Sosialistisk Venstreparti | To | Debating the Alternative tax proposal for Kazulia |
| Message | If you earn less than 10,000 you pay 0 tax. The 20% is for income between 10,000 and 15,000, not for anything below that. |

| Message | I understand what you are saying but that is roleplaying, what you can do is setting it as 1% since it isnt possible to make it 0%. But that i can only say yes to if it will not make a deflict. But we are to different in taxing policies. Im not 100% capitalist but i like a more capitalistic system than today. |

| Message | It is possible to make it 0%. In real life people in many countries only pay tax once they earn a certain amount and that would be the case here as well under this proposal. |
| Date | 19:05:42, September 19, 2009 CET | From | Det Kazulianske Arbeiderparti | To | Debating the Alternative tax proposal for Kazulia |
| Message | Thats my point it will be roleplaying. here you can only go to 1 prosent |
| Date | 19:11:44, September 19, 2009 CET | From | Sosialistisk Venstreparti | To | Debating the Alternative tax proposal for Kazulia |
| Message | You can. Because '>' means more than. The 20% is for people earning >10,000. There is no tax bracket for people earning less than 10,000 meaning they pay no taxes at all. |
| Date | 20:43:28, September 19, 2009 CET | From | Fremskrittspartiet | To | Debating the Alternative tax proposal for Kazulia |
| Message | then I got it wrong, but we still say no |
| Date | 01:14:56, September 20, 2009 CET | From | Det Kazulianske Arbeiderparti | To | Debating the Alternative tax proposal for Kazulia |
| Message | I see, still we will also still say no |
