| Message | I dont believe that the route to a classless society is VIA private ownership, but I support both of these endeavours. However, I am in favour of state regulation where necessary, progressive taxation and the lessening of the gap between rich and poor, therefore I accept the social democratic label. Which is why I'm proposing this bill. |
