Voting deadline: April 3094
Description[?]:
| This is to defend the Alorian industry and ensuring that foreign investors cannot get a foothold in our industry. We need this to ensure that jobs stay in Aloria, the profits made stay in Aloria and to ensure that our nation's economy and industry does not die out. OOC; Don't know the situation in the US, but here in the UK our industry has just about gone especially our car industry. This is all because foreign investors just start investing in smaller businesses then start buying out and buying out then they send our jobs offshore to places like China where you get paid about £1 a day.Even our car industry has just about collapsed except for the main ones, in the 40''s just about every British town had a car manufacturing plant and we were the largest manufacturer of cars in the world now we're somewhere down the bottom. It comes back to foreign investors who couldn't care less about Britain and just rip away our jobs and industries. But I digress, hopefully this has you convinced. |
