| Message | This budget is the most socially responsible budget ever proposed in the Republic of Egelion. Although, the nation does go into debt, it is very fiscally sound as heavy social spending will improve our nation and the standard of living for her citizens. |
| Date | 05:15:41, February 18, 2006 CET | From | I Love Everyone! | To | Debating the Social Economic Spending Package for 2187 |
| Message | Notice: This bill is considered a vote of confidence in the current government. Should this bill fail for whatever reason, the government will push for dissolution of the Senate and earl elections in order to secure a fresh mandate in line with our election manifesto. |

| Message | So now it's considered "socially responsible" to spend other people's money? Some of the money to be paid by our children? |
| Date | 00:07:21, February 19, 2006 CET | From | I Love Everyone! | To | Debating the Social Economic Spending Package for 2187 |
| Message | It is socially responsible to create a state where sharing and socialisms are virtues. Capitalism and freak-market economics are NOT socially responsible policies. |
