Description[?]:
| Hoping that this new assembly would have more common sense, we propose a plan to recovery natural areas in our country, in particular in the establishment of National Parks in the Alascari Mountain Range and in the Tanallo and Adise River Basins, and of a Marine Sanctuary in the Straits of Ingris. As I mentioned before we need common sense, since the preservation of our natural heritage is not a right- or left-wing issue, but simply common sense. -Michelangelo Lai (SE spokesperson) |

| Random quote: "We must show that liberty is not merely one particular value but that it is the source and condition of most moral values. What a free society offers to the individual is much more than what he would be able to do if only he were free. We can therefore not fully appreciate the value of freedom until we know how a society of free men as a whole differs from one in which unfreedom prevails." - Friedrich August Hayek |
