| Message | is it just coincidence that joined with Anti-SUN attacks is legislation deregulating the stock exchanges, deregulating energy providers, limiting workers' right to strike and opening up the Solentian economy to buyouts with foreign capital? The tools of the establishment are showing their true colors for all to see. Only SUN can expose this corruption and only SUN will end this crony capitalist system!
