Bill: Bill Concerning the Regulation of Several Items
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: September 2603
Description[?]:
| I) To ensure the safety of consumers, the trade of exotic animals should be regulated by the government. II) Workers should not be made to scrape by on practically nothing. It's bad economic policy, and bad social policy. III) We believe a nationalized post office needs to be available to provide basic postal services at minimal charge. The availability of easy and cheap methods of communication benefit private citizens and business alike. IV) Every student should be entitled to sexual education. With sexual activity becoming more and more dangerous, every young person should, at the very least, be afforded the opportunity to be made aware of the dangers and how to protect themselves against them. We further believe that sex-ed would lead to a decline in need for controversial abortions. |
