| Message | Current: http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/budget.php?nationid=27 Last proposal: http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewbill.php Alright, the LPP gave fair reasons. Perhaps this is better. It does not tax people with income below 5,000, and tax is in general reduced and simplified aswell. |

| Message | Simplification should not be our goal. Our goal should be a system that establishes a reasonable level of burden for all of Rildanor's people and meets our needs. This bill does not propose such a goal. It creates tax cuts in a time of national economic shortfalls, further limiting our ability to establish a surplus. It simplifies a system that otherwise is perfectly acceptable, which coupled with the return of a luxury tax would meet our national demands. Unfortunately we have no choice but to oppose this measure which would limit the government's ability to meet essential demands. |

| Message | 23CC, check how it is currently. There it goes up to 75% and reaches 40% earlier. And it is apparent that we can not satisfy the LPP, since they only see the current one as proper. |

| Message | Yup, you got that right. We believe that the current system is the best, and meets the needs of the people and the government. Lowering taxes as you would do in a budget shortfall is irresponsible, and wasteful when done in the name of simplification. |

| Message | Well, the Devout Ecologists will soon transfer the Finance responsibility to the Right-Wing Extremists, so as last act towards the Finance responsibility, we will push this taxation bill towards a vote. It might aid the RWE to see how opinions are divided on this bill. Everybody, before you determine whether this proposal sounds any good, check how it is, compare and then decide if it is better, in the right direction or not. |
