Message | (1) Although we are the Pro-Capitalist party, the irony is that we actually SUPPORT State-owned defense industries for practical purposes (bombers are cheaper to produce b/c of no illusive "middle man"). However, we don't support the current law that has blanket nationalization. It should be a "two tier" system. (2) ADAMANTLY, ADAMANTLY, ADAMANTLY oppose although this law "technically" gives ME as HoS (haha) power to appoint Mayors all over the country. Nevertheless, that is just TOO much power for the Executive Branch. (3) ADAMANTLY, ADAMANTLY, ADAMANTLY oppose for national security reasons. |
