Bill: Stealing from the Theives

Details

Submitted by[?]: Tuesday Is Coming

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: May 2117

Description[?]:

As they do not truly or rightfully own the products or the businesses, it is not fair that they get to keep the revenue. All state imposed Democratic Worker's Councils shall be penalized by a 75% corporate tax.

This will also serve as a warning to foreign investors and would-be entrepreneurs. Do not start a business in Lodamun, the more successful it is, the higher the chance that it will be seized and given to your lessers.

MessageShould I add this to my "warning" bill? Just to clear it without a "vote no" thing?

If I do so, only the proposal will be up for a vote, the rest is RP that happens no matter what the vote.

Messagethat sounds like a fair way to handle it.

opposed to a 75% corp. tax though. Too much too soon, especially at a time when it is important to restore investor confidence.

Messagewhile there is a crisis of business confidence, we see no reason to bring in a corporate tax at all. We believe this bill is a deliberate attempt to further damage the economy, and will oppose it absolutely.

Why the vote against?

FromCNT/AFL
ToDebating the Stealing from the Theives
MessageBecause this bill was presented when the market was completely private and the government did not intervene in it.

Random fact: Cabinet ministers who disagree seriously with the head of government would usually be expected to resign. Parties within the cabinet may attempt to manoeuvre to replace the head of government though, for example by proposing a new cabinet bill or voting for an early election.
