Bill: Foreign Investment Reform
Details
Submitted by[?]: Beluzian Defense and Federalist 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: March 2545
Description[?]:
| Some areas of Beluzia (areas near the border) may have an increased demand for foreign investment. Our tax laws and free government may entice nationals of other nations to build their businesses on our side of the border, rather then their own. However, some localities not near foreign borders may want to limit the investment of foreign companies, to keep the wealth inside our great nation. Therefore, I propose that we leave it up to local governments to decide on this, as one blanket policy is not applicable in all situations. |
