| Message | "Quality education is for all citizens. Not just the wealthy. The Social Liberal Party does not entrust corporations to provide Lusitanians with the tools to succeed tomorrow. A corporation will not teach a man how to fish, because it will lose a business opportunity. It will no longer be able to sell fish to him. Private education will still exist however under the Social Liberal Education Program." - Matt Groening. Social Liberal Education expert. |

| Message | The Social Liberal Education Program heavily restricts private initiative in education, though it contemplates its existence. That is untolerable for us. Free education "for all citizens", as advocated by the SLP, is a monstruous myth as long it is payed by stealing directly in the people's pockets, restricting idividual liberty. |

| Message | What you call a 'monstrous myth' has education hundreds of millions of people worldwide and helped lift hundreds of millions of people worldwide, out of poverty and ridden states of plutocratic social models. |
