| Message | This would be horrible for people with low income making them unable to pay bills. In fact it would most likely destroy the economy. |

| Message | If you like we could lower it to ten percent and cut out much of our budget. |

| Message | Also, this bill will not destroy the economy. We still have welfare for those who need jobs, and when they get good jobs they will be able to pay their bills. Also, the welfare helps them get better educations or go to trade school, and thus they will be able to get even better jobs if they need them. On the contrary, this program will not destroy the economy, it will strengthen it! However, if you wish, we will change the proposition to a ten percent rate. |
