| Message | DCM, the living age is nothing but hokum, it will crumble not only the economy but it will be unsustainable, after a period the economy collapses, taxes rise through the roof and there would be too many people to pay. Businesses will close and run from the nation with the capital, the nation will be a beacon of poverty. Minimum wages how are now are fine, also not being able to fire workers is a bad compromise, bosses who rule businesses should have also freedoms, after all is their business. You wouldnt love someone entering your home and made the rules without your consent. |
