| Message | We are open for compromise though or any suggestions, however please understand where this is heading, and provide good arguments if I am wrong, unless it is a disagreement in principle. |
| Date | 01:31:05, March 03, 2017 CET | From | Socia Libereco Partio | To | Debating the Capitalist Infrastructure Legislation 06/4174 |
| Message | Article 1: We think it is better for the organisation and communication that the airports must be managed by one central leader. We also think that the government is the most suitable for that position. |
| Date | 01:45:11, March 03, 2017 CET | From | Socia Libereco Partio | To | Debating the Capitalist Infrastructure Legislation 06/4174 |
| Message | Article 2: we agree. Article 3: we agree as well. With solidarity as our main factor, we think it is the best that the strongest shoulders carry the weaker shoulders! Article 4: Mmm... Alright. Article 5: DISAGREE. As you read the value as it is now, the government maintains and constructs the national highway systems. That gives us 1 certainty: All the money from the ministery of Infrastructure shall be directly spend on the infrastructure, nothing else. That certainty will dissapear when we give that money to other firms. How many times did it happen that those firms spended far less money than they received? The firms are doing those jobs as company; meaning that their number 1 priority making profit is. The government's number 1 priority is to give the inhabitans the best care and wealthy-being as possible. That is the big difference and that is why we think the government will do that job the best! Article 6: disagree. As we said at article 1, we think it'll be better for the organisation and communication that the post agencies are managed by one central leader and that we think that the government is the most suitable for that position. Article 7: Agree. Article 8: Fully agree! |
