Message | We DON'T HAVE A DEFECIT. Taxes are not desirable, but rather must be imposed at times when the government needs more money, the government currently has no deficit, their is no reason that taxes should be raised. The only consequence of this would be the lose of jobs in Aldegar. |

Message | If one of your senseless military proposals will pass, Aldegar will have a defecit. If we had a truely social government, our surpluses would be invested in educational and medical programs and such things. Nothing happens. |

Message | If you really feel that these areas need improvement, might I suggest proposing increasing their coverage with the surplus they have. Raising taxes for no reason helps no one. |

Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
