Description[?]:
| -- ECONOMIC RESOLUTION -- - 3622 - "Our nation is in dire straits. Our unemployment rate is at 100%; our population the second-lowest in the world and our budget deficit reaching 99% of the GDP. This is all because of the budget proposed by the Voronan Green Party in the years preceding the formation of the Voronan Libertarian Party-- which itself was a spark of rebellion against the terrible economy in Vorona. As we speak, the GDP per capita is at $609 (50 times less than any developed country) and government spending accounts for 100% of the GDP. Simply put, there is no investment, consumption or business in Vorona. It's 100% statist government spending. Our tax revenues barely make it over 70,000,000 DLT (DLT70mn, while our spending is of 24,000,000,000 DLT (DLT24bn). Together with the Voronan Welfare Party, we, the Voronan Libertarian Party, pledge to reduce our budget expenditures when in power; as being in power is a requirement to put forth a new budget. Here and now, we will discuss how we plan on amending our budget." |

| Message | What about the taxes and income? |
| Date | 10:13:10, February 16, 2014 CET | From | Voronan Libertarian Party | To | Debating the Economic Resolution |
| Message | We will keep the current taxes as they are now, which is 0% income tax, 15% sales tax and 15% corporation tax. These numbers are terribly unrealistic, but we have to use this system to allow our GDP to grow massively on its own and then change around the tax code after that. |
