Voting deadline: November 2602
Description[?]:
| The NLP believes that it is for the benefit of the Malivian people, society and economy to have any illegal aliens apprehended and taken out of society. These people are potentially dangerous to our society in several ways and need to be removed. While Malivians who break the law are arrested by police, these non-Malivians are allowed to walk free after breaking the law. To cover the extra cost of arresting these illegal aliens, we suggest that we cut the funding for the telephone service, so that it is only free for those on low incomes. This is not a vital service, so it should not be the government's responsibility to provide it free of charge. Also, to cut funding, we believe that prisoners who have disobeyed the laws of Malivia should not be paid for any jobs they do whilst in jail. They should be required to do odd jobs around the prison. This would save the government vital money that would be far better spent improving the society of Malivia.
