| Message | You haven't really explained why we should, you kind of just threw it out in the open... |
| Date | 03:14:15, November 20, 2005 CET | From |  Islamic Nationalist Front | To | Debating the Autonomy Act |
| Message | I apologize. I've explained before -- I feel that any treaties that commit us to adopting any particular domestic policy go against the principles of democracy and self-determination. |
| Date | 03:25:11, November 20, 2005 CET | From | Jakanian Conservative Party | To | Debating the Autonomy Act |
| Message | My support is simple. I oppose every single treaty out of principle. It stops me from being able to propose legislation, even legislation that I don;t believe will pass(like PoWs as slaves). |
| Date | 23:26:34, November 20, 2005 CET | From | Communist Party of Jakania | To | Debating the Autonomy Act |
| Message | Democratically removing the rights of Labourers, h00ray for Democracy! Not saying that's what we're doing, but that's just the idea I get from the Neo-Libertarian Party's comment. |

| Message | CPJ: That's not at all what the NLP wants. We fully support individuals' right to strike, organize unions and operate DWCs. However, because the legislative power invested in the National Assembly is not limited by our consitution, our nation must democratically decide on all potential legislation. Treaties that limit our ability to do so are undemocratic. The NLP would support a constitutional amendment that would prevent the government from interfering in workers' affairs (among other things), however until such an amendment is passed, we must uphold the basic principle of democracy. |
