| Message | Well, though we do not agree with the progressive tax system, we will honor our word for the sake of political stability. We know that Lusitanians will reward us in time. |

| Message | We have given an example of responsibility, unlike the SLP which has refused to accept and face reality. |
| Date | 00:59:05, November 11, 2006 CET | From | Social Liberal Party | To | Debating the Income tax proposal of April 2312 |
| Message | The reality that the SLP has been faced with is seeing Lusitania in a recession while both opposition parties preferring the status quo, were unwilling to do anything about it. Until now of course. I hope this means you will be passing our spending budget as well. A budget is a budget. I'm not sure they've separated taxing and spending on two different proposals. |

| Message | I'm not sure *why* they've separated taxing and spending on two different proposals. |
