Bill: Addiction Bill

Details

Submitted by[?]: Pertetuum Kazulia

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: March 2455

Description[?]:

The "drug reform" bill, passing almost certainly unanimously, was a step in the right direction, but I suggest we do not stop there. Our people continue to die and suffer from their addictions, which enslave them to the Tobacco and Alcohol industry. We cannot pay the moral price of sitting back and doing nothing while the chemicals inside these "products of pleasure" chain the people to an addiction they never wished for.

In order to have an efficient and strong workforce, we need a healthy and happy workforce. However, many of our Proud Workers are addicted to substances such as tobacco, alcohol and other drugs, which is harmful to their health and life expectancy. If it is harmful to them, it is harmful to the Nation, who depends on her workers.

Then there is the argument of drug-taxes. However, the revenue from substance-taxes does not compensate the moral cost of allowing these addicting habits to fell our Peoples and I suggest we outlaw the addictive drugs that numb us: the cancerinducing tobacco; the body-hostile alcohol; all of it. In fact, those tax revenues are an insult: we must not be bribed by the drug-producers who intoxicate our Workers!

Message@ Communists: Yes, halucinating drugs can't be outlawed any further at this moment, because of some liberal silly "freedom law"...

@ Socialists: We are only concerned with the wellbeing of our fellow countrymen. People don't choose to spend their lives like idiots when the option to do so isn't pushed right into their faces, like it is now. I guess we should ignore the "socialist" part in your party's name.
