Bill: Enslavment of Criminals Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Industrialist Party of Aloria
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes the withdrawal from a treaty. It will require half of the legislature to vote in favor[?]. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: October 2410
Description[?]:
| We believe that if our Justice system has the right to enslave criminals then we will have a detterent to crime and a new source of governmental encome will be gained. People who commit crimes deserve punishment and we just want more ways for criminals to be punished. This act is the first step toward enslaving criminals as a punishment. The CP would never advocate enslaving innocent people or have innocent children be born into slavery, that is inhumane and an injustice. |
Proposals
Article 1
Withdraw from the Global Emancipation Treaty.

| Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
