Bill: For a more peaceful Kanjor
Details
Submitted by[?]: Parti Libertaire
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 2528
Description[?]:
| Oh this is going to keep happening. We realize there's a limit to what we can pass, but we see these two items as being a little too militaristic. 1) If the military is allowed to help the police in "serious emergencies", it could easily be setting things up to be taken advantage of in hard times. This is how fascist regimes are started, and it should be avoided at all costs. 2) The draft is bad. Even the bloc should agree that serving in the military should be completely voluntary. |

| Message | Article 1, no. Article 2, yes. Democracy is nothing without rights and the military can act as a check on the power wielded by democracy or a group of people in order to protect our fundamental rights. After all, they give their lives for these principles and this nation. |

| Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr. |
