Message | "We believe in mild socialism, providing the people with necceserry services but focussing on an open and free market. We believe in a strong private sector supported by a small but strong publisc sector." - Why does the MUC therefore vote for a bill which will abolish large sections of the public sector? We understand small, but how does this make it strong? |
