Bill: Hobrazian Security Issues
Details
Submitted by[?]: Hobrazian Peoples 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: January 2874
Description[?]:
The most important role of our politicians is to secure our nation from foreign and national hostility by organisations, states and individuals, who seek to exploit the goods of our society, disregard our economic system or harvest on our kindness and openness. We must not be naive and therefore the first agenda of the HPP in its reestablished form is to propose these meassures to reassure that the Hobrazians will not be run over or tricked. We shall not tolerate speculations in our economy and disobedience of the national law. |

Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
Random quote: "Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed, it has been said that democracy is the worst form of government except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time." - Winston Churchill |
