Message | Do not leave things to local governments. Either the government makes provisions or does not. |

Message | Leave this to local is great idea! In example, Migadon doesn't need civil defense, because it's rural place with a lot of forests, which are natural protection. |

Message | yes because, when enemy forces start bombing, fleeing into the forest, will help so much.......... -.- |

Message | It makes it a less likely target |

Message | Doesn't matter. A forest is an awful place to hide. What about supplies? Not to mention the extensive use of napalm.... There needs to be a national system. |
Date | 21:28:15, August 11, 2005 CET | From | Telamon National Party | To | Debating the Civil Defence |
Message | Giving power to local goverments is good and helps people decide more about what happens. |
Date | 22:27:29, August 11, 2005 CET | From | Progressive Marxist Party | To | Debating the Civil Defence |
Message | But it also allows bad decisions and is biased towards the poorer regions. Lirona may decide not to build a system of shelters, considering it a waste, opening our borders for attack. In the name of national security I deny this bill. |
