| Message | Thousands of jobs can be created in the logging industry through this deregulation, boosting the economy and making us a major player in this sector internationally. By designating eco zones at the same time we can protect those areas of special scientific interest and wildlife habitats that really need protecting without spending billion on unnecessary regulations.

| Message | How predictable your response is, Ms Benn. What about the thousands of servicemen and women who no longer have jobs because you and your stubborn left-wing friends would rather play political games than up the defence budget - even though you know your quasi-pacifism is completely out of touch? We are trying to create employment here and put money back into the economy - it is you and your Left Bloc friends who are hurting workers... and harming this nation's security capability at the same time. Xander Fisk Patriotic Party Trade and Industry Spokesperson. |

| Message | we are going to be a party of conservation. there is no reason for us not to use our resources as long as we are able to keep them available for future generations. a different version of this bill that can conserve the forests we can approve, but not this iteration. |
| Date | 11:02:19, November 02, 2016 CET | From | Patriotic Party of Baltusia | To | Debating the Forestry Act 4113 |
| Message | We ask the Democratic Republicans to propose the bill that will conserve the forests while providing new jobs for the thousands of servicemen who are now unemployed. We would consider this. Thank you. |
