Message | Not all of them are actually less military. For instance, having defence shelters on a national level makes it easier for evacuation, and requiring people to do national service is logically (though not according to game mechanics) more militaristic then just having a draft. |
Date | 22:04:10, October 10, 2008 CET | From | Revolutionary State Socialist Party | To | Debating the DSP.301.2649 (Military Platform) |
Message | The shelters clause is something we support. In addition, the draft clause can be interpreted in favor of our views. |
