Bill: KCA: Emergency Budget Fix
Details
Submitted by[?]: Keymon Capitalist Action
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes to change the allocation of funds in the budget. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 2592
Description[?]:
| »The State is in serious peril. Currently, we have a deficit margin of over 60 percent! We have proposed a measure to raise the luxury tax to 24 percent, and establish an 8 percent sales tax for everything else. With this, we are expected to generate an annual income of over 2.1 billion KED. The budget has thus been adjusted to meet 4/5ths of our exact expected estimate.« ~Natasha Goldstein (Keymon Corporate Action) |
