| Message | There are some good proposals, but not enough is done to protect the environment and ordinary people from uncontrolled commercial activity. |

| Message | Herr Talman, We are not surprised that a socialist party is against the natural rights of a citizen to start their own business practice. Let me guess, soon you will propose a bill to punish the worker's with draconian taxes? Riksdagsledamot Arnold Svansknorr (R) |

| Message | Riksdagsledamot Svansknorr, we reject utterly your pitiful argument; we are not a socialist party, we are social democrats. We believe in a regulated market economy that serves to provide for all Telamonians, and your bill does not do that. It exposes hardworking citizens to unreasonably high energy prices through a lack of appropriate regulatory legislation, it allows corporations to exploit an unregulated advertising market by doing nothing to prevent misleading or even plain false adverts, and it leaves open the possibility of local governments abandoning forests to environmentally devastating commercial deforestation. It is incredible that after proposing such a bill you have the tenacity to say that the Socialdemokratiska Partiet will attack the workers we are seeking to protect from your misguided policies with punitive tax increases. If this is the attitude of the Republikanerna leadership, we wish to have nothing to do with your party. Tåge Rehnskøld Leader of the SDP |
