| Message | More counter-revolutionary nonsense. We oppose. |
| Date | 18:44:09, January 20, 2017 CET | From | Parti Libératif | To | Debating the Liberté from Compulsory Pensions Act |
| Message | Unlike what the Parti Révolutionnaire may assert, this is by no means counter-revolutionary. It is important from the perspective of liberté that we allow citizens to opt into the State's pension plan, or allow them to choose from one of the existing private plans. This bill would not eviscerate the public option, but instead make it more competitive. |

| Message | It is time to take pensions back to people. From the state. |
