| Message | OOC: Implement? Wtf? "This bill is an armed assault on the workers of this nation. It will be struck down." -- Vytranja Denisia |

| Message | (laughter) "My mistake, my colleagues. I meant to state that DWCs would implement communism in Keymon. Of course, this is not an armed assault on the workers of Keymon. Our party is against armed assaults and has consistently and honorably opposed all armed political movements for a century." -- Kyle Douglas |

| Message | "I am afraid that we cannot support an outright ban on DWC's. We propose to alter the law to the government does not intervene with regards to them. That way if the workers feel a DWC would advance their standard of living and working they are free to do so but they are not under any obligation to do so if they do not want to." -- Director General Suzanna Kukai |

| Message | "If we lived in a country that wasn't emerging from a civil war launched by communists, and had not already had another communist insurgency before that, we'd be willing to gamble on permitting DWCs to exist. Thanks to the communists, we do not live in such a country and we are now threatened with a third communist-launched civil war. Under the circumstances, Director General, permitting DWCs to exist constitutes too great a risk." -- Kyle Douglas |

| Message | "This bill is obsolete to the AMZC/CD Compromise Deal. The Christian Democrats should withdraw it from the Assembly." -- Director General Suzanna Kukai |

| Message | "We will submit our bills parrallel to the compromise bill and support both. If both are on the docket at the same time, there should be no ill legislative effects. Heck, off the record, Director General, your party could vote as it wishes on the CD legislation as long as the AMZC/CD bill passes." -- Kyle Douglas |
| Date | 16:40:01, September 05, 2006 CET | From | Lotus Coalition of the Endless Knot | To | Debating the Christian Democrat Platform: Promoting Free Trade |
| Message | OOC: Ok then but I'll propose the compromise one so it listed as a month later than these ones. |
