Description[?]:
This great nation needs more revenue in order to pay for public services and fund important excursions to foreign nations (particularly those who haven't sent us a christmas card in the last 5 years).

Message | We fully endorse this measure. Corporations are like the clubhouses children make, and as such they must be guided by our thoughtful hand. They are in our country, so technically all they own is also ours. Twelve percent seems almost an absurdly low number considering this, but whatever you guys think is best. |
Date | 04:28:37, August 01, 2007 CET | From | Social Democratic Party | To | Debating the Econmic Reform Bill |
Message | The Social Democratic Party fully endorses this measure as a means to fund public services and re-distribute wealth. |
