| Message | So we will let private parasites charge through the roof for the basic necessities of life? For almost thirty years we have provided homes to our citizens. This is the last straw for this government. Our differences are irreconcilable. |

| Message | Homes for the poor should never be the matter of private business, unless you wish to see private business put the poor back into debt. |
