| Message | There is, the corporations will flock back into Solentia and boost it's economy again. The en masse leave of corporations with capital brought nation into chaos. Now we gonna fix your mistake. Foreign investors will flock to help Solentia rebuild and create the old pristine capitalist paradise in which everyone is better off, capitalism creating more wealth. |

| Message | The economy never dropped, the companies still existed but were just run by the workers and the government. All you are doing is selling these back to your friends. |

| Message | This is the most horrid lies said by WPP trying to make the bad situation in which the nation went look bright and that i am trying to put my "Friends" in power, this nepotism is non existing with us in power. We are just giving back what is rightfully deserved by the people that worked hard for these acquisitions. |

| Message | A family of 2 parents and 3 kids for example will not benefit at all from this. It says enough for a single worker but not taking into account the fact that the money two people Male may need to go towards 5 people or more |

| Message | The economy was bad. We don't lie, the fact to you had such restrictive policies, how tf it works when you literally fucked up corporations, 40% tax rate is not a normal value but still us lying... |
| Date | 11:04:19, October 04, 2019 CET | From | Majatran Socialist Ba'ath Party | To | Debating the NLP-24 Pragmatic policy on wages |
| Message | But we didn’t fuck up corporations, they simply belonged to the workers. I have seen no proof of your claims of how we allegedly ruined the economy. |

| Message | Workers owning corporations is bad idea, corporations have a long term results that are determined by innovative and smart CEOs, you abolishing this hierarchy that worked hundred of years collapsed the system. People can be seen to not vote always the good choice. The regulations as well made the corporations highly uncompetitive both on foreign market and here. These corporations are nothing but hokum. The people should realize that under capitalism there will be more wealth created as we abolish taxes that before had hurt people. |
