| Message | While we disagree with article 1, we do agree with article 2. We are unsure how to vote on this and thus we would like the rationale behind this bill from the Social Democratic Party. |
| Date | 19:48:04, April 18, 2015 CET | From | Forward | To | Debating the SDL bill 16 |
| Message | We here at Arch party, support article 2. However we would like to learn more about article 1 and the Pro's and Con's of it. |
| Date | 20:53:30, April 18, 2015 CET | From | Luthori Imperial Party | To | Debating the SDL bill 16 |
| Message | Mr. Speaker, While the LIP supports the humanitarian ideals behind this bill, the party has decided to oppose this bill. The socialist realization of these humanitarian ideals could threaten to undermine the economic integrity of the Holy Luthori Empire. It would set up the expectation that the government will bail the people out if they aren't successful, or force the government to hurt the agricultural strength of the country by forcing the high output farms to subdivide and therefore limit the overall productivity. I yield. |
