| Message | Some of the proposals here are actually surprisingly reasonable; overall, this bill is a step back though. Putting all that responsabilities upon the government's shoulders is nonsense, specially since Vorona's a frágil e country drowned in debts. The private sector, on the other hand, has the money and the focus to do a much better work. |
