MessageMr. Speaker

The former NPP Government purposefully passed a socialist authoritarian Bill creating an illegal and forbidden monopoly of the Energy Sector in Hutori which was only made legal because the NPP let it be. Hutori is a nation of laws and we must respect Anti-Monopoly and Trust Laws in this Nation and we move that the National Senate sell off Energy Hutori back to the Provinces and let them deal with energy generation on their own terms. They know better then us the energy requirements for their Provinces and whether or not the private sector can have a say, as long as they are allowing for competition of some kind they are following the law.

Thank you Mr. Speaker and I look forward to the debate on this Bill.

MessageMr. Speaker,

First of all calling our policy a ''socialist authoritarian Bill'' is a bit in intense considering the amount nations of Terra that control their energy sector. Countries like Rutania, Dundorf, Alduria, Jakania and many more have complete state controll over their energy sector, are these all autoritarian socialist countries for the liberal senator?

Furthermore, the allegation that this policy is illegal are not entirely true. It is true that Hutori does have have anti-monopoly laws but these laws do not apply to govenement own businnes or to government services.

OOC: If go to the ''law of the land'' page, you can see that it is clearly stated that about monopoly policies that ''(this general law is superceded by other laws relating to specific parts of the economy)''

So to confirm, the Honourable Senator is against Monopolies.. but only when they are in the private sector. If its about government control the National Progress Party is all for it is that correct?

MessageMr. Speaker,

In a way, yes. But I think the senator's way to phrase it misleading. Governement's monopoly serve a different purpose than monopoly from the private sector. It normal and crucial for a governement to have some amount of control over some part of the economy and to keep control over many crucial institutions, like energy. I could explain to my colleugue why we believe that the energy sector should be control by the governement if he want me to but I do not believe it is necessary for now since it not at the center of his critisicism.

When we think about it, there is many things that the governement has a monopoly on but we wouldn't dare to question these monopoly. Like the hutorian governement has a monopoly on the millitary, as we wouldn't allow the private sector to have their own army. Federal and provincial governement also have a monopoly on justice court and prisons, as we wouldn't allow private corporation to set up their own justice system. I know these exemple may seems a bit farfetched as these are very different from the energy sector, but I beleive the senator will get my point. WE simply beleive that energy shoudl be part of the list of thing the governement as a monopoly on.
