Bill: The Strong Military Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: The Milita and Freedom Party
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: March 4051
Description[?]:
| As a nation, we must have a strong military to defend ourselves against the nations who wish to harm us. Since there is little danger right now does not mean we should not have a strong military, a strong military would deflect war. We can see this in cold wars were nations do not fight because both sides have a strong military. We do not want a cold war but we understand that it is much better than an actual war. |

| Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current. |
