Bill: Profit Enhancement Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: United Republics Party
Status[?]: passed
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: September 2450
Description[?]:
| Recently some companies have been fined for being "unsafe." Now many companies are so worried about safety that it interferes with productivity. Frankly every business is required to have worker's compensation insurance, so why not leave this issue to the private sector? When a company is looking for an insurance provider, its rates will be determined by trained actuaries who understand safety is more than simply how many fire extinguishers or emergency exits there are. |

| Message | This is a HUGE step backwards for the safety and health of our country's workers. Without government regulation in industry, employers will not be punished if they provide a dangerous working environment. This bill can only cause more suffering upon our large workforce. |
