| Message | The Libertarian Party is again giving all the left-whinge parties the chance to show the electorate what they are all about. This government does not need to steal the workers money as we have a massive surplus as it is so lets do away with theftation once and for all. However we are sure the left-whinge will not support this as to do so would be to give up some control over the populace, and at the end of the day it is that control they seek. |

| Message | it's because you haven't let us spend any more money. Also, we'd like to point out that you have proposed that for people making MORE than 200,000 a year, 0%. This does nothing for the workers. |

| Message | Because the workers already pay 0%, and the game will not allow us to take negative amounts of theftation, (although it is an interesting idea!) |
