Message | There should be a though discussion on what the new government should be doing, but here are some proposals: First thing is to rebalance the budget. We should at first implement a taxing system on income, expecially on higher incomes. The goal is to have about 150 billion JAK in returns, making the actual budget having a surplus. This can be increased to 200 during the period of government Then, there should be a redistributing of the budget priorities. Off course, an gradual increase in the miserably low expenses for education, health and infrastructure, and a gradual decrease of the budget for military expenses, that is now taking up to 65% of our nations income. |

Message | BTW: this is very urgent, considering the fact that the last 10 years, NOT A SINGLE ADAPTION of the budget was introduced!!!! |

Message | I think that this, while being more moderate than the previous Cabinet, excludes key parties within Jakania, Namingly the Moderates and CMAG. I can easily see reason for them to oppose this proposal. However, speaking hopefully on behalf of all left, center left parties here, I think that this cabinet even without the Moderate Democrats and CMAG involved can work with the two parties to make a just government which gives everyone willing to try, a good opportunity to succeed aswell as keeping our economy soaring past our previous debts and into a new era of prosperity. I believe that if the MDP and CMAG gives this Cabinet an opportunity to work with them this nation could truelly become *United* Jakania instead of the constant partison bickering that plagues many other nations. |

Message | I support this cabinet. |
Date | 19:18:31, January 10, 2006 CET | From | Moderate Democratic Party | To | Debating the Cabinet Proposal of September 2168 |
Message | Well DSF I'm willing to work with other parties of this nation, but as I can see they wanna go their way without discussing their proposals, etc, that's why I go my way to, but I work with another party here and that's why they wanna keep us out of the cabinet. |

Message | I assure both the CMAG and MDP that your voices will be heard in this new Cabinet if you give us a chance to perform. Also, CPJ and i will try to keep any new proposals that come from the cabinet as fair and balanced to the Jakanian people aswell as to the Economy. There will be no repeat of the former leftist government. |

Message | Not a single cabinet position? I do say, its pretty extreme to exclude the single largest party by a wide margin from the cabinet... |
