Message | This is a dangerous precedent. This would allow government to abuse its power and seize the property of dissidents under the veil of "vital government work". We vehemently believe that private property is an important right that can only be seized with a warrant |
Date | 23:03:01, August 01, 2015 CET | From | Liberal Party of Davostan | To | Debating the Private Property Act of 3885 |
Message | Will not support this due to Article 1. This can lead to an abuse of power or a feeling of authoritarianism. |
