Bill: Economic Reform of 2571
Details
Submitted by[?]: Democratic Capitalist Delegation
Status[?]: passed
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 2572
Description[?]:
| We believe that in order to lessen government interference in the economy, these minor reforms should be made. I) The public should be allowed to make their own responsible choices in regards to the purchasing and detonation of fireworks. We believe that anyone old enough to be considered a responsible adult can make a responsible decision about dealing with dangerous explosive materials. II) There is no reason to restrict the use of industrial hemp, other than a cultural fear of the cannabis plant. Given that cannabis use is already legal, and hemp has great potential value in the creation of paper, textiles, biodegradable plastics, and even fuel, there is no reason to regulate its use. |

| 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. |
| Random quote: First and second class seats on public transport shall be BANNED! We are all FIRST CLASS people, regardless of whether we are rich or poor and can afford or not afford to pay for a more expensive seat. From now on, all seats on trains, buses, trams, planes and so on shall be the SAME. We will all travel in the SAME way, TOGETHER. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
