| Message | While we applaud the effort to increase infrastructure and education spending we can't support a budget that is not paid for, we will not support an expansion of the deficit, furthermore cutting military spending will only hurt the family's of service members and the Rutanian arms industry. Elmer Clark Former President and Whig party Chairman |
| Date | 07:48:23, May 02, 2017 CET | From | United Democratic Party of Rutania | To | Debating the Budget proposal of December 4203 |
| Message | As the Whigs have said, it great that there is an effort to increase spending for Education, Health and Infrastructure but this will increase the deficit from the current budget. So whilst the UDPR supports the efforts we don't support a bigger deficit. |
