Message | We disagree with article three, because putting tariffs on other nations will only hurt the buisnesses in this nation. |

Message | I was thinking Article 3 was a bit dodgy. Upon reflection it doesn't really serve any useful purpose, so I have removed it. |
Date | 20:38:32, August 02, 2007 CET | From | Socialist Party of Greater Hulstria | To | Debating the External Relations Act |

Date | 00:06:40, August 03, 2007 CET | From | Gao-Showa Imperial Party | To | Debating the External Relations Act |
Message | We're somewhat worried about the cost of intergrating all of our refugees, but as long as there is a reasonable cap on it we will support. |
Date | 01:33:30, August 03, 2007 CET | From | Revolutionary Socialist Front | To | Debating the External Relations Act |
Message | Of course, all action will be taken within reason. We do not wish to destroy the economy. In fact, immigrants can prove very beneficial to a nation's economy in the long term, as is evident in many RL nations. |
Date | 17:07:45, August 03, 2007 CET | From | Progressive Liberal Party of Hulstria | To | Debating the External Relations Act |
Message | A very good proposal that will benefit our country. Article one will make it for visitors easier to visit our nation, and tourism is a nice business. |

Random fact: In order for a Cabinet bill to pass, more than half of the legislature must vote for it and all of the parties included in the proposed Cabinet must support it. If your nation has a Head of State who is also the Head of Government, then the party controlling this character must also vote for the bill, since the Head of Government is also a member of the Cabinet. If any of these requirements are not met, the bill will not pass. |
