| Message | We believe that if public workers go on strike then their must be a large problem with how public services are run which means that these problems should be fixed before more work should go on anyways. |

| Message | Yes absolutly |
| Date | 16:11:50, May 21, 2013 CET | From | Zardio Federisma Partio | To | Debating the End Government Interaction in Businesses. Proposal 2 |
| Message | The UFP strenuously opposes. Public workers provide needed good and services that cannot be obtained elsewhere. Tell me who would patrol the streets if the police went on strike? Who would man the hospitals if doctors and nurses striked? Who would defend the borders if the army complained? Tell us who would provide the basic public necessities so required for the functioning of the nation? The nation shall not be held hostage and it's people deprived of service because of some disgruntled workers. |

| Message | Please calm yourselves, we are simply proposing this as it is our belief that if that many public workers went on strike then something must be seriously wrong with our government and our public services in which case they wouldnt be effectively performing their jobs anyways. A few disgruntled workers going on strike would not cause that large of an impact unless it was much more than a few. If there are more than a few then the public services would need a serious overhaul. We may look at revising this bill to avoid a very unlikely scenario the likes of which you have proposed. -Giovanni Faber Head of the Laissez-Faire Conservative Party |

| Message | How is this? |
| Date | 17:10:10, May 22, 2013 CET | From | Zardio Federisma Partio | To | Debating the End Government Interaction in Businesses. Proposal 2 |
| Message | We oppose still. Public workers should not be allowed to strike or even cut services offered. |
| Date | 17:15:26, May 22, 2013 CET | From | Laissez-Faire Conservatives | To | Debating the End Government Interaction in Businesses. Proposal 2 |
| Message | We believe this should provide for a satisfying compromise. -Giovanni Faber Head of the Laissez Faire Conservative Party |
| Date | 17:36:14, May 22, 2013 CET | From | Zardio Federisma Partio | To | Debating the End Government Interaction in Businesses. Proposal 2 |
| Message | We can accept this proposal so long as services are NOT cut off. |
| Date | 22:40:06, May 22, 2013 CET | From | Laissez-Faire Conservatives | To | Debating the End Government Interaction in Businesses. Proposal 2 |
| Message | Critical services are not able to be cut off. Only certain public workers are able to strike whose services are not critical to society. |
| Date | 02:19:56, May 23, 2013 CET | From | Nouveau Parti Libéral (ZR) | To | Debating the End Government Interaction in Businesses. Proposal 2 |
| Message | We refuse to vote for this until all can strike |
