Message | Would you want citizens of other nations like Rutania to have control over Beluzian companies, that could be easily shut down in the event of war? I thought not. |

Message | Ownership in this sense does not imply complete control - industries that are physically located in Beluzia are under our jurisdiction. In an emergency, it would be likely that any industry or business that was key to national security would be temporarily nationalized if it failed to cooperate. What this bill is discussing is whether or not non-Beluzians may invest freely in our private sector under normal conditions. |
