| Message | Mr Speaker, this budget is a mockery - 100 DRA for Foreign Affairs? Does "The Good" have any idea about the benefits resulting from interaction with foreing nations, such as the reciprocal maintenance of free trade? Gwendolyn Hayforth-Breckinridge MP Member for Ulbrach RFR Foreign Affairs Spokeswoman |
| Date | 23:39:19, June 25, 2013 CET | From | Centre Democrats | To | Debating the Good™ budget proposal of February 3506 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, I do believe that this proposal is a joke and I do not wish that any Member of Parliament brings anything this idiotic up again. It is a waste of mine and everyone else's time. Cecilie Rahbæk, MP Member for Elbian Party Leader of Radical Liberal Union |
| Date | 23:41:23, June 25, 2013 CET | From | Freedom Party | To | Debating the Good™ budget proposal of February 3506 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, We wholly understand the need for our foreign ministry bureaucrats to have coffee and biscuits with foreign ministry bureaucrats from other countries on the taxpayer's expense. That's why we propose a foreign ministry budget suitable for the purpose. If they run out of money for coffee, I am sure that there is a coffee machine at the foreign ministry office. Jeddite Maelic Tanist of The Good |
| Date | 23:45:41, June 25, 2013 CET | From | Freedom Party | To | Debating the Good™ budget proposal of February 3506 |
| Message | Mr Speaker, Mrs. Rahbæk is one who really needs to try out the coffee machine, it will probably be the closest she will ever get to ordinary person's daily life ever. Then, hopefully she will understand that one does not need four billion of other people's money for coffee and biscuits. Jeddite Maelic Tanist of The Good |
| Date | 23:56:01, June 25, 2013 CET | From | Centre Democrats | To | Debating the Good™ budget proposal of February 3506 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, That is an absurd statement. The Foreign Ministry does not only drink coffee and eat biscuits with foreign bureaucrats, the Foreign MInistry ensures healthy relations with foreign countries, trade agreements, military agreements, peace and aid to countries in need. Cecilie Rahbæk, MP Member for Elbian RLU Party Leader |
| Date | 02:04:50, June 26, 2013 CET | From | Hacia Casa | To | Debating the Good™ budget proposal of February 3506 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, we are disappointed, although not despised, to see how little value The Good attach to education. Perhaps this is why their policies are so ill-thought out? Leticia Saldanas MP Leader of the Opposition |

| Random quote: "Civil disobedience. . . is not our problem. Our problem is civil obedience. Our problem is that numbers of people all over the world have obeyed the dictates of the leaders of their government and have gone to war, and millions have been killed because of this obedience. . Our problem is that people are obedient all over the world in the face of poverty and starvation and stupidity, and war, and cruelty. Our problem is that people are obedient while the jails are full of petty thieves, and all the while the grand thieves are running the country. That's our problem." - Howard Zinn |
