Avevano trovato con questi punti il modo di frenare la follia dirigista del partito comunista ed ora vogliamo riappropriarci dei nostri meriti. Grazie" "We are here to present to the parliament a proposal from OSDI for a reform in the Istalian economy, against the uncontrollable libertarian and authoritian capitalism of the state, both cause of disaster and catastrophe for the economy and the workers.
