| Message | I propose this tax legislation to increase purchasing power. To increase the capacity for social organizations to obtain funds easily. To create a more humane society. Also create a fair and balanced tax law that meets the needs of society, while increasing the purchasing power of those who donate, by not taxing funds that solve the problems of society preventing the government of having to shoulder that burden. In agreeing I vote aye. |

| Message | We added another proposal into the bill to make to bills one. One dealing with the tax exoneration. The other deals with regulation of farm pesticides. To boost the economy and protect our agriculture sector. I will subsidize food production. By this the need for artificial need for toxins that cause fallow ground-soil makes it a bad condition for the agriculture sector on our country's markets. We should stop burning food as fuel and using pesticides and fertilizer. When these issues are covered we have solution of enough food and lower prices due to higher yield due to natural process. To plant a anti-pest plant in each row prevents the usage of 20 tons fertilizers and pesticides that is needed for that plot. |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, the current income tax rate is 2% for incomes above 40,000 ALD. We have no other tax. The taxes are very low we can't see the need for exemption. Do we need to raise taxes to pay for additional bureaucrats solely for the administration of exemption? Patrick Roberge President United States of Alduria and Vonarburg. |

| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
