Bill: Employer Relief Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Conservative 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: May 2605
Description[?]:
| Since we do have state garunteed income that no parties are interested in getting rid of, we find no need to have a minimum wage in place. Employers should be able to employ workers at a rate they deem fit. If the employers do not pay well and no one applies, they will naturally raise their pay. Simple as that. |
Proposals

Old value:: There shall be a minimum wage at a level considered a "living wage," well above the poverty line for a full time worker.
Current: There shall be a minimum wage at a level considered a "living wage," well above the poverty line for a full time worker.
Proposed: There is no provision for a minimum wage.
