Bill: Changes to foreign policy
Details
Submitted by[?]: Unified National Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: May 2448
Description[?]:
| Right now it seems like Al'Badara is just throwing money around and letting anyone enter the country. We propose money be given to countries who have recently faced a disaster, and be more restrictive in who we allow to enter the country, rather than just letting anyone who doesnt like where they came from enter |

| Message | Al'Badarians of today didn't just burst forth from the ground. Immigration is important to culture, economics, politics and development. As for the aid packages, we help fellow leftist nations in their struggle against corportate nations and rich monarchies. |

| Message | If the government (represented by the DN) is aiding only for leftist organisations then we should stop aid altogether! Relief aid is for all people regardless of politics and we are sickened by such an act by the DN! |

| Message | The people who receive are aid are people who belong to the working class, so in a way the DN is correct when saying that our aid is "leftist". Since when does a bourgeois need aid? He is already exploiting society and living it up so he's not exactly in need of financial assistance. |

| Message | Indeed. We help the poor and starving peoples. You'll be hard pressed to find a poor and starving person in a nation who is fighting really hard to keep that government who's making everyone poor and starving in office (Unless he's being forced to at gun point) |

| Message | Furthermore when it comes to relief aid DN! will help nations on the whole. But when it comes to regular funding, Kings and Corporate Kings don't need it. |
