| Message | Comrade, It is not as though these lands are seized without compensation. We have current standing laws that grant the 'property" "owner" compensation, with the ability to appeal if this is believed to be too low. Furthermore, the liberation of these private lands is done for necessary projects like hospitals highways, and sewage systems. Is the home of one family truly more important than the building of a centrally located hospital? Shall we truly need to add precious life-risking hours to the new hospital built in an open field simply to avoid having to pay one unwed couple to move to another colonial ranch house? Vote no, I implore you all. Comrade Father Dante Elefante Minister of Finance |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, We agree with the liberals on these meassures. How can one be free from the tyrrany of the government if one cannot own property? And what is property and freedom mean if corrupt government can sieze it for their selfish statist devilish plans! We vote yes! Mark de Ronde |
