MessageMadam Speaker,

We oppose this bill , as it trades our protection of Hutori jobs and regulated commerce for wanton "shock therapy" with regards to commerce, advertising, and investment. We especially would like to point out Articles 2 and 3 - the sudden shift in deregulation, which shouldn't even occur in the first place, is extremely severe and quite impractical.

Jose Diaz
Co-Leader of the NPP

I yield.

MessageMadam Speaker,

No region in our fair nation is more conscious of Hutori job loss than ourselves, Adelia has the highest unemployment rate of any in our nation, at around 9%. Simply put, this deregulation will cause massive benefits to our national and local economies rapidly. Imagine, the opening of Article one would create an entirely new industry, spawning countless millions of jobs.

Next, you should surely understand, from your elitist perspective, that the modern day world economy is so massively interconnected that the effective difference between our nation or another having a holding in our nationally based organizations is nil. Sadly, corporations have no souls or morals, thankfully this means that they will operate efficiently under all circumstances.Even the most basic of economics students understand that tariffs delay creative destruction that will eventually create a job surplus, so these unnecessary tariffs are nothing but a burden upon the underpaid, underemployed members of my region.

In truth, your opposition to this bill only proves what we have suspected from the start; that your socialistic agenda exists solely to trap people into a cycle of depression and abandonment which forces them to turn from God to socialists like the NPP.

I yield.

MessageMadam Speaker,

We cannot support Article 2 of this bill, and as such will be voting against it. It is our belief that the issue of foreign investment should be handled similarly to the tariff issue in Article 3, in that nations which allow our citizens to invest freely will have the same privilege extended to their citizens. We believe that Foreign investors may freely invest in national companies, provided they obtain government approval first.

OOC: We are supporting the: "Foreign investors need to obtain government approval for all investments in national companies." Position for Art. 2

Foreign investors may freely invest in national companies- 25 nations
(Dorvik), Kirlawa, Davostan, Rutania, Kundrati Union, Holy Luthori Empire, Narikaton, Malivia, Telamon, Tukarali, Kalistan, Gaduridos, Aldegarian, Saridan Republic, Mordusia, Dolgaria, Indrala, Trigunian Empire, Kafuristan, Zardugal, Barmenistan, Pontesi, Dankuk, Deltaria, Sekowo

Foreign investors may invest in national companies, but may not get a majority share.- 17 nations
Aloria, Ibutho, Likatonia, Lodamun, Baltusia, Kanjor, Alduria, Confederatio Novus Endralonus, Kizeniae et Kuzaki, Reino de Egelion, Selucia, Deltaria, Great Badaran-Majatran SPR, Istalia, Keymon, Solentia, Talmoria and Aslistan

Foreign investors need to obtain government approval for all investments in national companies.- 11 nations
Dundorf, Endralon and Zergon, Beluzia, Valruzia, Rildanor, Great Cildanian Republic, Coburan Kingdom, Majatran Union of Kalopia-Wantuni, United Jakania, Jelbania, Republikken Kazulia

Foreign investors are not allowed to invest in national companies.- 4 nations
Kingdom of Hobrazia, Republiek van Vanuku, Dāsu Gurōraiku Mikuni-Harusutoria, Kingdom of Lourenne

Local governments regulate foreign investments.- 1 nation
Sacred Country of Beiteynu

IC: For the majority of nations, bilateral investment will be maintained or even improved, with Foreigners being allowed partial or majority investment in Hutori and our citizens being allowed the same. For those eleven nations which require government approval, along with Beiteynu, which deregulates foreign investment, further review would be needed to determine how accessible their market are so a similar policy may be instituted here. For the four nations which do not allow foreign investment, they default policy would be to exclude their citizens from investing in our businesses.

That said, we would like to note that bilateral, or even multilateral, trade agreements would supercede this more general policy. For example, if the Kingdom of Lourenne were to allow investment by Hutorians without a majority share as per a trade agreement; we would allow the same of their people, despite their otherwise exclusive policies.

I yield.
