Bill: Public Education Reform Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: New Conservative Left
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: June 2442
Description[?]:
| It is wrong that our government requires education of all children until they are a legal adult and at the same time requires the families to pay for this education. Lower-income families are simply unable to afford quality education while the better off members of society entrench classist barriers. There cannot be a free market without a level playing field. |

Current: There is a free public education system and a small number of private schools, which are heavily regulated to ensure they teach adequate skills and information.

| Message | How could you not support a free public education system. The current law makes education a luxury of the rich or whoever can afford it and denies the basic right of one to those who need an education the most. he current law is a complete abomination and prevents capable young citizens from reaching their full potential. It also severly weakens Lodamun's future workforce. EVERY DEVELOPED AND SOPHISTICATED NATION HAS A PUBLIC EDUCATION SYSTEM. |
