| Message | This is neo-liberalism garbage. Large landowners ruled Sekowo in history and the people should own the land they live on! To allow unregulated postal services leaves Sekowo vulnurable to slews of threats through the mail along with unaccountability of incompetent private firms. The government of Sekowo is accountable to the people. International businesses are not! |
