| Message | We oppose this protectionist bill. It will weaken Dundorf's position in the globalized world. Foreign investments are an important factor when it comes to promoting job creation, and restricting them will reduce economic growth and the competitiveness of our economy. Marina Hohenstein LDP Spokeswoman for Trade and Industry |

| Message | Apparently, the LDP still think that laisser faire policies will benefit the country and lead our people to paradise. Unfortunately, if that might occur it will just be for the richest strata of the population. Your electorate, of course. Johann Pratzl SED Parteivorstizender |

| Message | The SED has still not coped with the fact that people around the world have kicked communism in the dustbin of history and replaced it with a free market, free trade system that every class of income benefitted of. If you compare those countries with open markets to those with closed markets, you will see that the former are always better off. Marina Hohenstein LDP Spokeswoman for Trade and Industry |

| Random fact: When your party holds the foreign affairs department, you can create new treaties. However, before writing anything new, it is a good idea to search for existing treaties which already accomplish what you desire. |
