Bill: Intelligence Reform
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberty Party
Status[?]: passed
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: June 2281
Description[?]:
High profile intelligence failures have demonstrated that a huge money pit of incompetent agents routinely breaking the laws of the countries in which they operate does not protect us from terrorism or foreign invasion but does serve to make the rest of the world (quite rightly) hate us. People who hate us are more likely to attack us and therefore aggressive (but inept) agents are counter-productive. Accordingly, we propose to redirect our intelligence community into performing actions which are not brazenly illegal nor guaranteed to alienate all the other countries in the world. |

Message | Wow, look at how well your education is working out for you. I guess about as well as the intelligence services' information on Iraq's WMDs. Maybe also about as well as the intelligence services' attempts to find bin Laden. Etc. Sidenote, just calling something 'intelligence' does not make it, nor its proponents, intelligent. |
