| Message | I don't think that you can get a simpler or fairer tax system than this now can you? |

| Message | (Jeez... you wait until after I turn Communist to propose a tax bill that DNUP would have been very happy with... just can't win...) These taxes are far too low to support the government services we want to provide! We'd rather see something in the... oh, 100% level for the top bracket. ;-) |

| Message | Oh and DNCP, you should still vote in favour, as this is of course a compromise tax proposal. I can't stomach the current stupidly low taxation levels, and would prefer it much higher. But I am willing to meet everybody at this half-way point for the good of the nation, because at present the chaotic state of our finances merely illustrates the fiscal incompetence of the previous regime.... |
