| Message | Why should someone who does not need birth control pay for someone elses? That does not seem fair. |
| Date | 20:04:43, April 24, 2006 CET | From | Jelbék Zemojad Lofrkad Prta | To | Debating the Contraceptives Act 2218 |
| Message | The DLP agrees wholeheartedly with this proposal. And in light of it, we may possibly change our minds with regards to the abortion proposal. |

| Message | And..... Contraceptives are???????? Furthermore, why should the government pay for essentials? That is the people's job. |
| Date | 20:20:28, April 25, 2006 CET | From | Jelbék Zemojad Lofrkad Prta | To | Debating the Contraceptives Act 2218 |
| Message | The DLP believes it should. It is called having a social conscience, it is called GOOD GOVERNMENT. This is something the Conservative party needs to learn. The DLP believes the Conservative Party has very little sense. If people cannot AFFORD essentials to their health and survival, it is to their benefit and the benefit of the nation as a whole if they are provided or assisted in acquiring them by the government. A healthy, happy citzenry equates to a healthy, happy work-force, which in turn means a better economy, and more wealth for all. |
