| Message | Again, number 1 is usless. State entities are not taxed. Simple, common sense rules. Article 2 is, again, useless. It does not give to the workers in any way- it takes away from them in the form of yet another tax. We should be pusing for cheaper goods, to really give fruits of labor to the laborers. Televisions, VCRs, DVD players, PCs, (all considered luxuries) these should all be cheap and abundant for Alduria. A steel worker goes to buy a 400 dollar TV (ex. cost 150 dollars to produce, so the state would gain 250 dollars from its sale). The new state tax bumps the cost to 480, so the state gains 330 dollars, all at the expense of the worker. |

| Message | Yes, we are forced to agree with the RP here. Article #1 on it's own would receive move support. |

| Message | Are you sure about that? I was under the impression a raise in taxes would be regarded as more regulatory? |

| Message | Yeah, I'm sure. The variable entries have no effect on ideology. It just affects the not-working economy. |
