Message	I am not sure about this one. I do not support interventionist. But if the treaty does not violate sovereignity in any way, then I do not know what kind of power it can have.

Message	It is merely a forum for better international communication and cooperation in the field of human rights and peace. We do not force resolutions on any members, but instead make recommendations and joint agreements for the betterment of life in Terra.

To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	I think it's a great idea. compared to many nations we are not particularly involved in international affairs. I think this could help get us involved in the wider world and may gain us some influence abroad.

Message	This forum will only be a place where the tyrants and despots of all the backwaters of the world can gather and complain about us. Let's not grace it with our sanction.

Message	Actually thinking about it, this will not violate our sovreignty - we can support this.

To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	Actually, think about what the treaty is saying. It is creating a place for international laws/standards to be created that will lessen your nation's sovereignty. If you sign this treaty, you will be compromising the freedom of your country to act on the will of it's own people and putting it into the will of people half way across the world.

To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	"It is creating a place for international laws/standards to be created that will lessen your nation's sovereignty." Not at all. The propoagandists of the Exarchs clearly haven't done much research. No laws will be created; it is merely intended to create harmony between Terran nations. No laws or regulations will be imposed upon members.

From	Progressive Futurists - Saor!
To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	If members decide to come up with laws and standards through open and democratic debate that is fine anyway, the UC would have no way of enforcing them other than war and trade means that could be used anyway UC or no.

To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	I say we give the group our support. We could always leave the union should it become overly hostile or oppressive.

To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	It's not the immediate effects and responses that you make about the UC, it is that this organization will indirectly cause the rise of international law

To	Debating the Ratification of the United Countries
Message	No, it won't. It does not impose laws. Simple as that.

Message	I will vote yes. If we enter it, we can sabotage it enough that it will never have enough power to do anything ;).
