Bill: International Aid bill

Details

Submitted by[?]: Secular Humanist 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: November 2451

Description[?]:

We are all human. Whether we be from Telamon, Kirlawa, Deltaria, or any other country. While national borders divide us in some ways, we are all human. We all reside under the same sky, and we all share a duty to promote the human race as a whole.

Sometimes, certain parts of the world are harmed by catastrophic events. Whether they be natural disasters, disasters of our own making, wars, famines, plagues, etc.

People in such a position are helpless and vulnerable. And we all know we would hate to befall the same situation. The Free humanity party believes the best thing to do is to help those in need, and one day, so that once day, should we find ourselves in need, there will be a wide network of countries we have helped in the past, who are willing to return the favor.

MessageWe support this bill, since it will help other nations' economies and eventually pay off in increased tourists coming from other countries to Telamon.

ToDebating the International Aid bill
MessageI don't think that countries who need international aid will be sending lots of tourists to Telamon. This is just a waste of money, honestly.

MessagePeople in need got like that through their own failures. If someone becomes a victim of a natural disaster, then they deserve to die. Want relief? Go piss in the woods.

FromUnited Labour Party of Telamon
ToDebating the International Aid bill
MessageSo if your country is so poor because of another country and can not fight back, you deserve to die because a hurricane happened and you can not afford a shelter or to move away because you are a poor farmer because your family has always been poor farmers and they can not do anything about it, since they have no chance to get an education or even think about it?

MessageTied aid is the only type of aid we should be giving. Why waste money and never get things in return. Waste of time and resources.
