| Message | This increase in income tax rates is unnecessary and only serves to deprive our citizens of their hard-earned cash. The PNCA will not support it. |
| Date | 05:47:00, April 04, 2011 CET | From | Pontesian Royalist Party | To | Debating the Income Tax Proposal of July 3100 |
| Message | This increase is a temporary measure to balance our national budget and we plan to decrease it over time. |

| Message | Very well, since the increase is small and only temporary, we will offer our grudging support. However, we will hold you to your end of the bargain- once the budget is balanced, we will demand a tax cut. |

| Message | We would appreciate if you might assist with the balancing of the budget, the former government's budget is difficult to reduce without causing major problems. |

| Message | The PNCA would be glad to work with the PRP in creating a balanced budget. |
