Bill: Budget proposal of March 2363
Details
Submitted by[?]: Scientific Libertarian Party
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This bill proposes to change the allocation of funds in the budget. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 2363
Description[?]:
| The Secularist Libertarian Party propose to reallocate the government's spending budget to better address the economic and social situation of the United Jakania. Slight overall decrease, particularly in certain areas to reflect recent legislation passed and in vote deprivatising certain things, but doubling defense spending to reflect a probably inevitable invasion by Solentia. |

| Random fact: "OOC", "IC" and "IG" are commonly-used acronyms in Particracy. "OOC" refers to comments, discussions and actions which are out-of-character, meaning they are done player-to-player rather than party-to-party. "IC" refers to in-character interactions (ie. party-to-party). Similarly, "IG" means in-game, although this term may also simply refer to what happens in the actual game interface, as opposed to on the forum or elsewhere. "RP" just means "role-play". |
