| Message | Herr Speaker, The Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Justice both have departments that are responsible for the investigation into price gouging or anything similar. To come into this chamber and state that the people are being exploited is entirely false and wrong. Sigmund von Dreschler, Party Chairman of the DKB |

| Message | How can the free market operate in a closed system, such as represented by railway lines? Please do not pretend multiple companies can operate along the same tracks and stations, offering competition. That cannot happen, therefore with the railways we have a cartel system, pure and simple. |
