Description[?]:
| The Völkische Partei propose to adjust the government's income tax policy to better address the economic situation of the Königreich Dorvik (Dorvik).

| Message | We would oppose this bill, as we believe any income tax reform should both increase the revenue raised from income tax and significant shift the tax burden from those on low incomes to those on high incomes. Klaus Erdmann (General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party) |
