Bill: State Defense Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Islamic Revolutionary Party
Status[?]: passed
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: April 2941
Description[?]:
| It is illogical--and indeed unsafe--to allow only private defense industries. This proposal will allow both national and private defense industries. It is in our best interests to provide for our national defense ourselves, in an unbiased fashion. |

Proposal[?] to change The nation's defence industry.
Old value:: Defence industries are privately owned and not subsidised.
Current: The state owns all defence industries.

| Message | Either we should nationalise them all or subsidise them all, there is no sane middle ground. |

| Message | I disagree fully with the Communist Party; this is a perfect middle ground that fits both national security and business interests. |

| Message | We believed this would provide a suitable compromise. We fear for a rogue defense industry attempting a coup if they hold a majority of the nation's defense systems. |
