Date | 16:25:26, October 06, 2007 CET | From | Republic People Party | To | Debating the Military Regulations |
Message | Defence inustries must be owned by state because it is more convenient for humanbeings. (Privately owned defence industries can make the government start a war to "earn" more money.) |
Date | 18:34:19, October 06, 2007 CET | From | Democratic Rationalists (PrCoa) | To | Debating the Military Regulations |
Message | Interesting argument, RP. But might government owned defence industries lobby for war to justify their budgets? What is the difference in incentives which makes it less likely that government owned defence industries will be as corrupt as privately owned defence industries? We're voting no on this for now. But we'll change our vote on a persuasive argument. |
Date | 09:12:41, October 07, 2007 CET | From | Industrialist Party of Aloria | To | Debating the Military Regulations |
Message | We have a perfectly good defense industry. We have public armies and mercenary forces allowed. Mercenary forces are more efficient, but those who join the public armies aren't as likely to flinch at the sight of danger, they're more than likely to do it for Aloria, not the money. As for Article 2, we will support it in a separate bill. |
