An Act to reduce foreign aid

MessageGicho-sama,

Has Strötzel-sama ever visited a genuinely poor country? We can run to our mountains if we want to, but there are other means of establishing trading rights than pursuing the downright immoral and knee-jerk nativist course of making poor nations dependent on us for their trade. It won't solve their problems and it won't solve ours.

MessageHerr Präsident,

we believe in the importance of trading rights, but these can be obtained through sensible diplomacy, which is also less morally questionable than the proposed policy. We would be willing to consider a reduction of foreign aid though.

MessageOOC: Correction: the foreign aid comment Holzinger made doesn't mean that the coalition considers cutting foreign aid. It's just a formal item on the LVP party programme

MessageHerr Präsident,

The NBF reveal their true colours. They are as disdainful of the needs of the exploited in Terra as they are of the exploited here. Cutting overseas aid is a remarkably short-sighted thing to do, as it will retard the long-term international economic and political stability.

MessageHerr Präsident, this government should serve the interests of Hulstria and Gao-Soto first. That is what it is here for. To those who for some reason believe that the interests of foreigners are more important than the interests of the ordinary Crownlanders whom we are pledged to serve, it is arguable that our current policy would actually do more to help foreign nations develop, given that aid has never brought a country into prosperity. If we are to give aid, we might as well do so in a constructive way instead of pouring it down a bottomless pit.

Random fact: Players have a responsibility to differentiate between OOC (out-of-character) and IC (in-character) behaviour, and to make clear when they are communicating in OOC or IC terms. Since Particracy is a role-playing game, IC excesses are generally fine, but OOC attacks are not. However, players must not presume this convention permits them to harass a player with IC remarks that have a clear OOC context.
