| Message | Despite your party and the other pro-centralization parties' use of insults, we will vote in agreement to this bill in order to decrease bureaucracy. Keep in mind, that a significant portion of Beluzia does believe in decentralization, so claiming that only the "Socialist Alliance" is the "people's choice" is extremely arrogant. If this trend continues, we will be pushing for secession for the states that vote a majority for our party. That way, you can have your centralized utopia and we can have our decentralized one. |

| Message | We are pleased to hear this and see that you have seen reason for it. Regarding issue of centralization, we are for national unity - we believe in strong, independent Beluzia ruled efficiently. We are concerned decentralizing certain parts of government endangers our nation - We are especially addressing your attempts regarding national military, and your tendency with favouring states' rights against human rights. We have no response towards your comment about Centre-Left coalition. We hope we can keep working for Beluzians' interests and for the good of Beluzia above ideological concerns. |

| Message | Above "ideological" concerns? You are the one and the other pro-centralization parties wanting to enforce your ideology onto all Beluzian states rather than having them determine their own affairs. Our militia will be stocking up on as much firearms as humanly possible to protect their own human rights - like the right to self-determination and independence from an oppressive centralized government. |

| Message | Oppressive centralized government? Your party wanted to outlaw pornography, allowed localities to limit free speech by blasphemy laws, expanded powers of police by giving no boundaries what local governments can allow them to do, voted against any proposal which would make lives of Beluzian citizens easier, such as free central healthcare or education, in the name of "ideological" concerns. Not to mention the devastating blows you dealt to Beluzian military and intelligence, decentralizing and limiting them. |

| Message | Those local governments are voted in by their local residents, which therefore dictate the policies of what the almighty federal government permits. Maybe those locals don't want your damn "free speech" or your "free" central healthcare or education. Maybe they want to control their own affairs and not have some imperialist dictate otherwise. We will be calling to arms for our militia. We empowered the Beluzian military by allowing their local governments to control them, giving them the independence of their own protection. |
