We'd also like to remind the classical liberals that a good government doesn't have a massive Surplus nor massive debts but rather a small Surplus balance. Showing that the government doesn't need money for money sake because this is the people's money and we are not a for-profit business. Andrea Vittoria Minister of Finances (SCP) |

| Message | To CLP: This tax cut would only reduce our surplus by 123 billion (income tax revenue from 1.224 trillion to 1.101 trillion) - leaving us with a surplus of over 40 billion. We would also like to second the SCP's point that the government is not a business, and that we should return more of the country's money to the citizen. |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
