| Message | We want you to lower taxes, man is not possible that you have to make this measure to raise taxes to steal and enrich the state, but the ordinary citizen does not. It is not fair that the state steal your money that you have obtained with your effort and that it should be used for your personal or family expenses, if the state wants to overcome the surplus deficit it should look for other ways of income that make the GDP grow and industrialize and produce by itself the country, without the need for the state to be involved in this type of areas, the state must look to see how you can generate income that goes to the state without taxes or at least a small amount of money that in all without any lack, can be paid by all social classes regardless of whether it is rich or poor, if so, it must be fair for all |

In particular, please bear in mind that a player who is inexperienced with Particracy role-play and has joined a nation as the only party there should not generally be expected to abide by RP laws implemented by previous players who have been and left. |
