| Message | Slight conflicts with our beliefs. All businesses should be run by a DWC, and we are against article 2. |

| Message | Oh? We thought act 2 could provide a nice balance between Public and Private and would be the line that wewould not want to cross. About the DWC, It seems to us that it would be a waste that DWC should be formed for small shops and other small businesses. |

| Random quote: The Wolfsheim Virus is not a real actual disease in the conventional medical sense of the term. Rather, it is a cluster of symptoms which are just part of the general socio-economic disease that is capitalism. The main symptoms the sufferers are experiencing are a direct result of capitalist poverty, as in malnutrition, poor housing and so on, combined with psycho-somatic symptoms which are a direct consequence of the contradictions and stresses which are inherent to the capitalist system. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer, General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
