Message | This proposal makes absolutely no sense. This bill: 1. Allows for unchecked ownership of animals and leaves the government helpless in the face of hoarders, disreputable businesses, illegal dog/cock fighters, unsafe food production, and cattle ranching. 2. Local governments are completely exempt from controlling forestry, leaving only the option of "commercial" forestry. In our nationalized economy, this quite literally means leaving Rildanor's vast tracts of pristine forests completely unregulated and open to black market exploitation. 3. Pollution and environmental destruction are given free rein. the Syndicate cannot help but wonder, when did foreign industrial capital buy a controlling interest in the Front National? |
