Message | 1 (gambling) - Favour. 2 (industry) - Against, but moderately; this proposal would be a change from "great" to "good". The current law is our preferred position on this issue; the proposed change is also good, but is not _as_ good as the current law, in our view. 3 (monopolies) - Strongly favour. |
Date | 07:15:56, October 14, 2015 CET | From | Accelerationist Party | To | Debating the Mixed Economy |
Message | The second article makes this bill ideologically self-contradictory and as such we oppose. |
