| Message | We only agree with Article 1, and we will vote against this bill. We shouldn't be nationalizing industries, and we should take the initiative to save a major corporation before large-scale ramifications occur. |
| Date | 00:27:55, March 16, 2018 CET | From | Kalistani Workers Party | To | Debating the Economy Update, April 4363 |
| Message | We agree partly with Article 3 and Article 2, but not with Article 1, and thus we can't support. |
| Date | 01:49:04, March 16, 2018 CET | From | National Conservative Party | To | Debating the Economy Update, April 4363 |
| Message | Will we have the KWP's support if a1 is removed? It isn't that important to us. LURK, A2 - Our current policy subsidizes ALL failing sectors of the economy while the proposed nationalizes failing sectors which are vital. (Yes I know there's a difference between subsidize and nationalize, I know this statement somewhat says otherwise) And what actions would you believe to be an effective initiative? A3 - The proposed policy would prevent employers from firing employees who have gone on strike for reasonable reasons which the employer deems "unreasonable." |

| Message | You've swayed me on A3, but I'm still too opposed to A2. The government should not be able to seize an entire industry. A better initiative would be to either give money to a failing industry or to break up larger corporations in it to create competition and distribute responsibility for delivering those services. |
