Bill: Repeal Minimum Wage Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Radical Party
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: July 2577
Description[?]:
The minimum wage Act is a blight on any employer, and discredits the very free-market. The state is obliged to provide unemployment benefits, but not to tamper with the free-market itself. If too many concessions are made to the workers, it becomes unprofitable for employers and small-businesses to work. Fieren Goldmark Finance Minister Leader of the Radical Party |
