Message | CU might consider allowing all forms of advertising, but we are unsure at this point. We do not support raising the taxes on essential goods. That act would disproportionately affect the working-class. Regarding foreign investments, we are localists. CU believes most decisions should be made by local goverments. And, we might consider lowering the tax on luxury goods. But since these bills are bunched together, we'll have to vote no. |

Random quote: "Colonialism or imperialism, as the slave system of the West is called, is not something that is just confined to England or France or the United States. The interests in this country are in cahoots with the interests in France and the interests in Britain. It's one huge complex or combine, and it creates what's known not as the American power structure or the French power structure, but an international power structure. This international power structure is used to suppress the masses of dark-skinned people all over the world and exploit them of their natural resources." Malcolm X |
