| Message | As we have stated before, the free market economy is a faillure and a disease for the living circumstances of the workers of Lourenne. |

| Message | Even if Lourenne accepts a free market, not regulating ANYTHING could cause an economic recession. The country is on thin ice wth this proposal, and I ask that the proposing party save this bill for later. |
