| Message | Prime Minister Mervyn Bijai, Mr Speaker, we vote against for reasons outlined in the last bill this was proposed. All people regardless of wealth should recieve the same levels of healthcare! |

| Message | Mr Speaker, under this system, all people would be entitled to free healthcare under a public system. However, it is morally wrong to deny people the right to seek alternative healthcare. It is done simply for misguided ideological beliefs. There is no pragmatism in such a situation. |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
