| Message | Acho que aqui o PR está a evoluir no sentido errado. Não consigo concordar com a maioria das medidas. Não vou justificar pois alguns pontos já foram falados, os quais eu não concordo. Gostaria saber o porquê de o PR insistir tanto em acabar com o ensino privado. |

| Message | A nosso ver a educação e a saúde são um direito fundamental. Não são um negócio. |
| Date | 15:36:18, August 25, 2006 CET | From | Partido Liberal | To | Debating the PR - Pacote de Medidas |
| Message | Artigo 1: e que situações poderão ser declaradas estado de emergência? Demasiado ambíguo para podemos concordar logo à priori com esta alteração. Artigo 6: Totalmente contra. Sem dúvida que achamos que o Estado deve garantir um sistema de educação - neste caso a educação superior - público e gratuito - ou tendencialmente gratuito - mas daí a não permitir que o sector privado explore esse mercado e que se auto-regule, fornecendo alternativas aos cidadãos que assim o entendam viola os nossos princípios básicos, pelo que jamais poderemos concordar... Artigo 7 - Consideramos esta medida demasiado proteccionista interferindo com as leis do mercado livre que defendemos. Artigo 9 - Totalmente contra. Jamais concordaremos com um sistema de pensões público obrigatório por motivos semelhantes aos enunciados para o artigo 6. Assim sendo esta desde já fora de questão votar favoravelmente mesmo que possamos concordar, em menor ou maior grau, com a generalidade das restantes alterações popostas. Cumprimentos |

| Message | Pois se o seu Chefe de Governo, enfim, "desapareceu", que sejam convocadas eleições antecipadas e que sejam os cidadãos deste país a decidir se preferem continuar com um Governo fantasma ou se preferem ver formado novo Governo. O país é que não pode continuar ao sabor da instabilidade das marés por muito mais tempo... |

| Message | as eleições estão para breve. o partido salazarista quebrou a espinha e não sabe onde se enfiar. amigos liberais, para si até é melhor que as eleições sejam daqui a um ano. pois neste momento a votção possivelmente seria mundo verde 1º - revolucionários 2º - cristãos 3º - salazar 4º. decorrendo um ano penso ser possivel os novos partidos ultrapassarem os monarcas salazaristas na futura assembleia. |
