| Message | Tax should be increased on >50,000 SOL to 35% >100,000 to 45% as this proposal doesn’t gain the most revenue back in taxes off people who earn the most. We want to maximise the revenue and this doesn’t really cut it for me. Unless this can be reformed I will accept it. |

| Message | Yes of course, you are minister of financy so you can propose your opinion, but we are here to find option who everyone will be satisfied. But your sentence about communism its not ok. Because in communism everyone are same, in my bill we arent same, and never will be same taxes for someone who just survive with his earn, and someone who earn enorm money. Jovicic N. |

| Message | Yes we are able to propose an option? We are not going against game rules. Your far right wing we are not! What are you a fascist? Like that is any better. We believe in equality for everyone and if you don’t accept that then... your corrupt and greedy. One thing you right-wingers only care about the wealth of the rich. |
| Date | 17:48:22, February 24, 2019 CET | From | Faschistische Union | To | Debating the Income tax proposal of January 4536 |
| Message | The game clearly states that only the finance minister is allowed to do that: http://classic.particracy.net/executive.php?nationid=42 If this bill is not voted against by all parties I will forward this case to the moderation. |

| Message | This is masterful legislation. |

| Message | We do not know why the conservatives refer to tax policy as a game, but it doesn’t contradict their backwards economic ideology. IRL: please indicate ALL non role play comments. |
