Not to mention the people who riot every time we don't give them more social benefits. Or the fact that the main focus of the Senate would be labor laws.

The language can sound nice but when I studied it, I absolutely loathed it.

It's dirty? I thought you said highlighting the difference between the candidates was okay. The difference between PC and AA is that much of the PC wants to establish a large welfare state which requires a lot of tax money and may cause a large budget deficit.

But he is running under the Progress Coalition banner, meaning he will not implement socialist policies.

Even so he will have socialist sympathies.

But he'd have a capitalist vice-president and a capitalist PM. Isn't that enough for you?
