Message | Agreed. |
Date | 11:47:25, February 22, 2018 CET | From | Unsubmissive Beluzian Workers Party | To | Debating the The Addictives Act |
Message | Goods that are detrimental to health must never be regulated by local government, as each state has it's own political leanings, which will result in the state party having different ideologies than the main national party, and as a result will result in different policies concerning alcohol. One might legalise it for all without age restriction, while the other might ban it because of religious or social reasons, which will cause foreign nations to view Beluzia as a nation where it's citizens are both civilised and uncivilised. The national government controlling alcohol policy will set the type of nation that we want others to view us as. Do we want a civilised, kind, compassionate and progressive one or an uncivilised, barbaric, racist and conservative one? We want the former, that is why we will agree to this legislation. |

Message | If this is the start of a campaign to give the regional governments less power than we must resign from this Goverment. |
