| Message | The government must take care of the little public property that is necessary, the road networks. Abandoning the people's channel of commerce is something the government cannot do. |

| Message | Forgotten Faith - It is unnecessary to take care of the people when they can easily take care of themselves through the tax cuts we have given them. |

| Message | Why does the Minister of Internal Affairs need so much money? OOC: I just realized, what is the job of the minister of affairs? |

| Message | Yes it is true that they dont need help as much. But tax cuts alone cant help that much. We need to raise some taxes or soemthing and try to get at least something on all of them or at least a bit. |

| Message | raise some taxes?? ... aaargh |
| Date | 21:43:26, December 14, 2005 CET | From | Tuesday Is Coming | To | Debating the Peacetime budget take 2 |
| Message | Internal Affairs is the police. And infrastructure(roads and such) was originally developed by private interests. For some reason, everyone assumes that they would not be provided by them now... |
| Date | 23:20:01, December 14, 2005 CET | From | International Society of Bankers | To | Debating the Peacetime budget take 2 |
| Message | but the police are funded by the nations, not the federal government, so these funds go nowhere. (Gotcha!) |
