| Message | Herr Karoligner, We urge that you side with the parties who have stood for progressive policies in Dorvik and not the return to the socialist ways of the MAB, who have done nothing but attempt to accrue power for themselves. We would agree to a public health care system if we can agree that the Federal government subsides the low-income earners of Dorvik. Yakov Ignatov, Federal Chairman of the Federal Assembly. |
