| Message | Mr Speaker, We need some tax raises or then we are going to have to cut more of the budget out eventually. After a tax bill has been passed we will propose a new budget, slashing funding to departments which don’t control much and maybe slightly lower funding for massively funded departments. Cleveland Novak MP, Chancellor of the Exchequer |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This is not only the total opposite of the values of liberalism, but this is ruining our country. You have destroyed our economy and now you want new taxes. This is a shame. We are very happy this tax plan won't pass and won't burden our companies much more. But the budget deficit you left is still very high and this will be a large burden for the next generations. You are incompetent Mr. Novak, you should resign. Mary of Hurrington, MP. |
