Bill: Privatize Defense Industry
Details
Submitted by[?]: Free Market 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: June 2133
Description[?]:
| Currently our Defense Industry in in the hands of the State. I guess this is so to prevent the export of weapons or other things. But we already have a law to prevent weapon export. It has to be approved by the parliament. Advantages of a privatized Defense Industry is the effecieny and technology gain and the competition. This would possibly allow us to choose between cheaper and also better weapons for our defensive army. I therefore suggest to privatize the Defense Industry! |

| Message | It was nationalised because many of the parties in this Parliament think that private industry is inefficient, no good and corrupt. That is because they have no brains. ;) |
