Description[?]:
| Respected Colleagues, Article 1: The Federal Republican League can only marginally believe this proud nations stance on organ donations. The clear and present absurdity of the current law gives the dearly departed unto the state! Quite sadly, those whom have passed can't speak up for what they'd want to be done with their remains-from cremation, burial or other various methods. We don't dictate laws on death rites so how dare we dictate policy upon the passed? The Federal Republican League desires to make it clear. Our official party stance is to encourage organ donation. Their have even been discussions of proposing legislation to give tax-credits to those who opt to have their bodies used for medical purposes to save another's life potentially. However, this is just a step in the right direction. Article 2: Though traditional one may expect to see this proposal being put forth by some of our respected members of the House. However, the Federal Republican League has completed a commission report on the rewards, risks, benefits and drawbacks to such a new program. Our party platform top-to-bottom is to minimize the role of our Republic in peoples lives. It is our view that we are to be the stewards of Solentia's taxes and nothing more! So what better way to invest in our own nation, in our own people and in their welfare by providing increasingly expenses prescription drugs to those who may not otherwise be able to afford them. This has a pragmatic benefit as well. With the proposal to extend retirement age and with the geriatric crowd as large as it is; keeping often younger adults healthier and on medications can slowly introduce preventative medicine programs versus crisis-care management. As an extension, this will ultimately in some decades increase lifespans and reduce the burden of a potential health-crisis. Article 3: Many items have been mentioned previously as to why the Federal Republican League desires to extend the professional retirement age. With the incredible advances in medicines, health care and technologies people are living much longer and healthier lives. The Federal Republican League would also like to see this, if passed, retroactive. This extension should have a grace period of 3 years as to not downtrodden anyone in there late fifties or early sixties. With an astounding surplus, it is time we-the freely elected representatives of Solentia to take charge and reform this proud Republic to the benefit of all our brothers and sisters. As against big bloated government reforms as we may be it is just a fact that local governments could never make such monumental and sweeping changes and run them effectively. It is time we all step up to the plate. I humbly request my esteemed colleagues consider this and vote not out of self-interest but, altruistic motives. With Respect from The Federal Republican League, The Party Directorate, Party Chairman, Ulrich Naveed Deputy Minister to the Party, E. Tipp Wagner Director of Internal Affairs, Baudelio Miroslav Director of Health and Social Services, Julitta Gwenaëlle |
