| Message | Well you know my answer to this one. If income tax rvenue is increased to support a larger budget, then we can live with no sales tax whatsoever. |

| Message | We also need to increase the proposal allotment. The restrictions are limiting the bills and making the game run much slower. Maybe an increase from 4 to 6 proposals? I would use one of my next ones on this bill, but I need to finish with the present bill at hand. |

| Message | Tax revenue needs to be at least twice that to even consider supporting essential services. |

| Message | I thought about raising the proposal quota... but I think it's more strategic just to have 4 an in-game year. You have to plot out your legislation, which is much more enjoyable in my opinion. |

| Message | Even so, the soon to be passed abomination of tax structure you proposed gains revenue of over 2.5X our expenses. We are either increasing our budget soon, which noone wants to do, or we are redrafting our tax proposal. Either way, we have WAY more money than we need. |

| Message | I would prefer no income tax and heavy taxation on corporations instead... This whole fiscal situation is making me go nuts. |

| Message | The trouble is that corporation tax seems to bring in bugger all at the moment. I mean the economy isn't actually enacted yet, but in essence we have a very poor corporate infastructure. Oh and over-taxing corporations really stunts growth. The key to stable long-term growth is keeping a consistent taxation and spending policy. I mean look at Sweden, Income tax starts at 50%, but it has one of the highest quality of life indexes in the world. |

| Message | I suggest that you vote then LPP, as otherwise this risks actually passing. |

| Message | I like fewer taxes, but letting this pass would be irresponsible of me. Sorry. |

| Message | understandable. That makes more sense than anything DUP could have said. |
