| Message | Let's debate about this. With an income of 105 billion we can invest a lot more money + a tax of max 35 percent is not high for such an income. |

| Message | Sent via Letter to the house, "We like the progressive aspect to it, but it doesn't even touch those who make large amount of ALOs. Please spread out the level of ALOs per bracket. Otherwise, you will only tax the incredubly poor. In which case we would blow up your house. However, we think you misunderstand. Look at the current tax code to get a better idea."
