| Message | In Deltaria Nova, corporation taxes are 75% and luxury goods taxes are 50%. So don't tell me this is high. |
| Date | 16:24:38, July 28, 2015 CET | From | Labour Party | To | Debating the April 3883 Taxation Bill |
| Message | Surely as parties of the left we should be decreasing the tax on the people, lifting many strains of the people. I can see this proposal driving everyone into poverty. |

| Message | Well, we have been increasing taxes on the richest (luxury, corporations, and also the bill). Actually we even decreased them for the poorest (12% to 11%) |

| Message | I think we should be moving to keep taxes where they are or decrease them in regards to income. We agree with the corporation and luxury tax though. |
