Description[?]:
| It's been an hard battle in the passed years to give this country a proper economy, without an excessive interference of the state in the market.

| Message | Dear colleagues, We are skeptic on article 5, since it is here since a long time and our economy, while not wonderful, seems to accomodate itself well of the situation. We could have supported the bill anyway as it was, but article 6 also poses a problem, since we belive stock exchanges must be regulated to prevent over-speculation. We will sadly reject the bill, but if you would just present the oher proposals in another bill we would be happy yo support them. Jan Brunsiek, Kanzler |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
