Details
Submitted by[?]: Kapitalist-Arbeitsfamilien Partei
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: April 2498
Description[?]:
| If people WORK, they deserve a little RELIEF!!! Thank you for your full support. P.S.: If you care to actually READ the current laws of Likatonia, you would notice that the law states CLEARLY that all businesses are REQUIRED to be owned by Democratic Worker Councils (DWCs), or unions. Therefore, a repeal of the "Corporate Tax" really is benefiting the WORKERS and Middle Class families that are the OWNERS of the corporations. cf. http://80.237.164.51/particracy/main/viewvariables.php?nationid=17 |

| Message | We see no reason to vote in either direction. Taxation is just about irrelevent to our agenda. On the other hand... taxing luxury goods means less people will buy them, which cuts the reliance on technology... Okay - we shall oppose this because of the luxury tax clause. |

| Message | TDP, if you say then you just don't KNOW our people in Likatonia. NOTHING will stop us from buying all of the best Luxury Items in stores etc. Therefore, we would just collect the extra revenue. Besides, we don't understand what you are talking about b/c this bill actually CUTS the Luxury Tax from 50% to 30%. Therefore, based on your OWN logic, MORE people will buy and increase technology. |

| Random fact: The people in your nation don't like inactive parties. When you often abstain from voting for a bill, they will dislike your party and your visibility to the electorate will decrease significantly. Low visibility will means you are likely to lose seats. So keep in mind: voting Yes or No is always better than Abstaining. |
