“While tax cuts may sound appealing at first, they merely shift the costs and prices. We advocate for a model based on solidarity, even if that means standing up for others at times.”

“We cannot support a budget that cuts taxes (way too much) taking the necessary resources from welfare, culture and the fundamental business support we've always guaranteed to our smaller companies.”
