| Message | Likatonia has one of the highest corporate tax rates in Terra. We call on coalition members to express their thoughts. |
| Date | 22:42:40, May 15, 2020 CET | From | The Moderates | To | Debating the Corporate Tax Proposal (4756) |
| Message | I suppose this would bring more businesses to Likatonia? |
| Date | 22:50:04, May 15, 2020 CET | From | Liberal Democrats | To | Debating the Corporate Tax Proposal (4756) |
| Message | Yes, that's the idea. Business owners will be more inclined to invest in Likatonia if we are more tax competitive with the rest of Terra. The new rate of 32% is still higher than most, but it is the best we can reasonably afford right now. |
