     It is exactly this, what the trade unions are doing all of the time.
     They fight for their aim to get the permission to coadministrate the
     political life of this country. But they do not want to do this
     against the ruling politics. In its critic of this politics you can
     see the social democratic dream of the SoZ-ites to achieve a workers
     friendly organization of "this country". The SoZ itself is already
     thinking in the same national categories as do the trade unions. They
     dream of a real consequent workers friendly BRD.
