Bill: IP Telamon is number one act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Imperialist Party
Status[?]: defeated
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: July 2399
Description[?]:
| If you vote against this act, you are against Telamon. Also, we should get rid of corporal punishment in our schools. There are more effective methods, like appealing to the inner child of a student, or making them sit on the "naughty" chair (but only if this won't stunt their long-term development). We should reward non-conformity. |

| Message | While I vote no I must object to the PS comments. The PWP is not facist, as proven in proposal three. And as for ecolo-raping (english language?), grow up. Humans are the dominant speceis on our planet, and its sick to push legislation that will allow your long-haired petty-bouergeois constituients to look at the pretty fish while real Telamonians, the working class, are denied jobs. |

| Random fact: "Treaty-locking", or ratifiying treaties that completely or nearly completely forbid any proposals to change laws, is not allowed. Amongst other possible sanctions, Moderation reserves the discretion to delete treaties and/or subject parties to a seat reset if this is necessary in order to reverse a treaty-lock situation. |
