Samuel chimed in last. "Our response to the current unemployment crisis—because it is a crisis, not a minor issue—must be twofold. First, we must take immediate action to employ a great swath of out of work Samgolans in rebuilding our nation's infrastructure. This will solve the immediate problem of so many families lacking a stable income, and help put food in the bellies of every child in Samgola. The Brick & Mortar Act, proposed by the D.A.R., will accomplish this great and important task, hiring tens of thousands of Samgolans from all corners of the country to revitalize our nation's industry and infrastructure and bring it up to modern standards. This will also allow for private enterprises to expand as well, with better road and utility networks allowing greater market access for all industries across Samgola."

"But..." Samuel continued, "...that is not enough. We must also look further into the future, at fostering the growth of industries that will [i]permanently[/i] employ Samgolans for generations to come, and increase our country's economic footprint on the world stage. In this, much as in bringing attention to our infrastructure issues, I am proud to have helped the D.A.R. lead the way. Working together with the Samgola Wildlife Society and with the international environmental community, I have helped to reintroduce the Laja Ecological Sanctuary project to the global forefront. Dozens of ecological organizations from across Africa and beyond are eager to establish a wildlife sanctuary in Laja, one which will not only protect the continued existence of our national animal, the proud and majestic West African lion, but also spring forth a tourism industry in Samgola. The ecological tourism industry already brings in billions and billions of dollars every year in our fellow African nations, on top of employing untold numbers of guides, rangers and groundskeepers, in addition to those working in the ancillary industries that develop around this tourism. Making use of our natural resources is important, but it must be done in a way that puts Samgola's interests first, and offers mutual benefit to everyone involved."
