| Message | Mr Speaker, I have to say that the flat tax bill is contrary to our vision of a just Luthori. Indeed, the bill presented here makes all Luthorians, whether poor or rich, pay the same percentage of taxes to the government, which is unacceptable, so we will oppose the bill. I give in.

| Message | Mr. Speaker, This at it's core is all about fairness. It's a tax that targets everyone equally, so how on earth is that not fair? Perhaps the Progressive gentleman would like to give us all in this chamber a lecture on economics? I think we could all use a nap on this side of the bench after having to listen to you droll on. *RFE bench erupts in laughter* The Rt Hon. George Bittersmith Prime Minister |
