| Message | How do we go into a surplus if we cut taxes all around? We supported a moderate income tax cut in good faith that we could compromise in the luxury goods tax and other areas. Angela Schmidt SDP Leader |

| Message | The KP accuse us of being out of touch with our nation's finances, yet effectively wish to abolish government entirely by cutting everything into oblivion. They're anarcho-capitalist sadists. Volker Wittke VP Leader |

| Message | However, surely money can be made up through more progressive forms like Income and Corp. Why are indirect taxes so high?! Verona Heidrich NL Leader and Foreign Minister |

| Message | We have a massive budget deficit, contributing to our hundreds of millions of Rupans of KP debt. We cannot afford to cut taxes right now. Direct tax increases would of course be the more favourable option but the KP choose to oppose all increases to tax for the rich. That alone will not defeat our pitiful budget. Indeed if you would agree to high taxes on the extremely wealthy decreases her would be reasonable. Until then slight increases or staying the same is necessary. Fabian Herzog VP Leader |
