| Message | Being that the Whig party has already introduced a better more economically stimulating bill to reform Gambling in the nation, this bill is a cover to make the CRL seem like a friend of business development but it is actually an attempt to increase government intrusion into unnecessary areas. |
| Date | 05:19:10, March 30, 2017 CET | From | Civic Republican League of Rutania | To | Debating the Sensible Gambling Reform Act 4187 |
| Message | It legalizes gambling in public homes. That is the opposite of government intrusion. |
| Date | 05:26:30, March 30, 2017 CET | From | Whig Party | To | Debating the Sensible Gambling Reform Act 4187 |
| Message | Yes this bill would legalize gambling in private home however it only allows this with special licenses and that is unnecessary government intrusion. |
| Date | 05:37:19, March 30, 2017 CET | From | Civic Republican League of Rutania | To | Debating the Sensible Gambling Reform Act 4187 |
| Message | Assuming the Whigs' goal is to legalize gambling, and assuming that the Whigs' bill to legalize gambling and leave it unregulated is a miserable failure (which it is), our bill would offer something rather than nothing. This is what's called a compromise. |
