| Message | We were going to take ad the proposal of the gun imports regulations, but seeing as it would never pass and would kill the bill before it started, well, we didn't. We believe this gives more power to both workers and employers, not to mention more jobs. |

| Message | Yeah. More power to be indentured. |

| Message | So you don't like the rights of workers to strike whenever they please and the freedom of employers to fire them too? Because it's a free market we believe these things must exist. The minimum wage thing was just a way to throw it in there, so that there can be more jobs for people. |
