| Message | "we are quite satisfied with several points of this budget, however it is not in good nature of the Social Liberal Party as a civic movement aspiring to be a future opposition to your government, to point them out. (Increase to Foreign Affairs, and good moderate cuts government and administration and corporate welfare to trade and industry.) The bad points. We are witnessing drastic cuts in Education, Technology and Environmental protection. This government seems to be intent on not only taking away are civil liberties but also jeopardizing our future. Education, Technology and the Environment are essential government issues for the Social Liberal Party. If we were in a position to bargain, we would most definitely demand improvements in these areas." - Guy Verhofstadt, Leader of the Social Liberal Party |

| Message | Os srs. deviam informar-se! Na anterior legislatura nós privatizados todo o sistema de saúde e de educação, assim como liberalizamos a área da tecnologia dando mais incentivos ao investimento privado e diminuinto a subsidiodependência. Sendo assim, reduzimos, para nosso agrado, brutalmente o peso do Estado nessa área quer em termos de recursos humanos, infrastruturas, manutenção, entre outros. Assim, justifica-se plenamente o corte "brutal" nesas áreas, tal como nós propomos no nosso Orçamento. |

| Message | "And we would have naturally opposed privatization of Healh Care and Education. We believe Health Care and Education are not privileges for the rich and that they are an essential and required element for individual liberty. Privatizing Health Care reduces access to services and that we will always oppose." - Bob Rae, SLP Health Care expert. [[Agora [Out of Character] Seguindo o mau exemplo Americano onde se gasta em média 4xs mais por pessoa em gastos de saúde do que no resto do mundo enquanto 30-40 % da população não tem qualquer tipo de cobertura. Aqui no jogo dá para privatizar - cortar e as despesas não sobem. Mas em qualquer situação real a privatização ou pior ainda o sistema misto é equivalente a atirar rios de dinheiro pelo cano abaixo. Sempre que os privados cobrem ao estado nunca o fazem por um preço justo. A derrapagem é défice orçamental do SNS torna-se sintomático. Para mim o melhor sistema de saúde do mundo é o Canadiano. Público para todos. Permitem o serviço prestado por privados mas não recebem um cêntimo do estado.]] |

| Message | </rant> E o melhor ainda é que os médicos recebem um ordenado público consoante o número de clientes atendidos. Quem se lembrasse de falar em tal sistema aqui em Portugal era logo assassinado pela ordem dos médicos. |

| Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
