| Message | To prevent confusion, I would like to note that this will not in any way change what has to be said on labels. That is affected by the "Listing of controversial ingredients (if food labelling is applied)" law. The proposal in this act will just change make it so that information that is already legally required, on labels that are already legally required, are clear and easy to understand. This change will not infringe on any economic rights. |

| Message | The Democratic Party of Davostan said their reason for voting no is because it infringes upon economic rights. How does it infringe upon economic rights in any way? |
| Date | 02:33:30, July 24, 2015 CET | From | Justice and Reform Party | To | Debating the Food and Beverage Labelling Act 3880 |
| Message | We would actually like to roll back these laws. |

| Message | I can't understand how you people can vote against this while at the same time not trying to repeal the label law. What's the point in enforcing labels if they don't have to be clear? |

While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks." - Thomas Jefferson |
