Bill: Military Reform Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Uniao Socialista
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 3575
Description[?]:
For too long have private contractors dominated the Defence Industry of our nation.Hereby we propose the re-establishment of TUK-ARMS National Factory.The reason is simple.While we create more jobs to fight unemployment,we produce our own arms,armored cars and tanks.The old,trustworthy B.I.G Mk III ,the famous self propeled Artillery which has been constructed by the old TUK-ARMS,is still very much in use by many armored and artillery divisions.Furthermore,private industries are CORPORATIONS and they want profit.This means that they may sell secrets about our armored divisions,or our arms to foreign countries for pure profit. As for the second proposal we believe that the current law is a conservative disgrace.Homosexuality,is not taboo as it used to be,and homosexuals have rights too.Even if some conservative parties don't like it. |
