Bill: Education Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Malivi Revolutionary Front
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: November 2459
Description[?]:
Comrades! The MRF is soon to take control of the educational system of Malivia. Upon a cursory look at its current state, we can only deplore the possibility for the bourgeoisie to corrupt Malivian youth using improperly supervised schooling. From this point on, the only legal schools will be administrated by the government; they will teach only the official curriculum, which is to be established by the MRF at a later date. |
