| Signed Letter from Dalu Alditia: "In memory of Plinio Alditia In what is most prison money being spent?. On educating criiminals. Criminals!. Instead of rewarding them for their wrong doings by giving them free education, they should be punished and above all; taught not how to steal better, but how to work harder which is what the labor camps are for. Criminals already robbed us once. Why do we allow them to keep taking money from our pockets once they have been caught? for a healthier and safer Mordusia." |

| Message | If a prisoner is given education it is more likely that when they are released they will be able to become a functioning part of society. Better to educate them and give them a second chance in life than to release them with no education and leave crime as their only path in life. We are opposed to this bill. |
| Date | 13:23:01, November 27, 2005 CET | From | Plinio's United Followers | To | Debating the Better spent money on prisons |
| Message | Educating them without teaching them the value of hard work only turns them into white collar criminals. First let them work 16-18 hours per day on the field like every Mordusian does, and then when they are finally freed, they will miss the hard cleansing work, and deplore the long waits and inactivity that are associated with the criminal life. |
| Date | 19:46:26, November 27, 2005 CET | From | Country Labor Party | To | Debating the Better spent money on prisons |
| Message | We believe education to be one of the keys to preventing prisoners from becoming repeat offenders. We therefore would not support this bill. |

| Date | 15:53:45, November 28, 2005 CET | From | Federalist Party | To | Debating the Better spent money on prisons |
