| Message | CWF is right, If we stop aiding foreign nations our free trade will be destroyed. If we cannot trade with other nations then our own economy will be slowed down dramatically. Although we do need to cut spending, this is not what we should cut because in the long run we will end up with less money. |

Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names.
