| Message | Madame Countess, with plans for such harsh economic conditions, corporations may leave Beluzia to go elsewhere. We need corporations for jobs. Are you sure you want to be a Socialist? |

| Message | Is it not best that we leave certain laws for local governments to decide? There are 5 parishes, Madame. What about the parishes that prefer less regulation? |

| Message | Bah. The parishes. 5 of them you say? Why should we let them decide? They want less government, that is quite unfair to our power. If we show them that we will give up some power, soon riots will start because they know they can take advantage. All we need is to show them we will waver just a tad before they rip us off of our feet. We need to stand firm on our national policies. |
