| Message | The privatiozations were a mistake i got the wrong value so i don't see were is that "odd mix", and in a socialist state the people control the state trough their representatives. It's obvious that all industries should be run by the workers and we applaude this proposal as truly socialis and truly democratic. We just don't understand why is the SDD always so worried about the DCP. |
