Bill: For the Wellbeing of the Community
Details
Submitted by[?]: Communist Party of Kafuristan
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: September 2660
Description[?]:
By redistributing the ability to restrict particular dangerous liberties, we may ensure our people the ability to move to a region which best suits them. Oh, and the Big Condom lobbyists ((pun on Big Oil)) have convinced me of just how much our people need frequent access to safety, hence the rider of Article 3. |

Message | Why should we waste time with fireworks laws? Thanks to our not free healthcare anyone injured by fireworks will die off and no longer by our concern. You\'re suggesting that we a) waste money on public health care (to treat firework victims) and b) waste money determining laws to ineffectively stop people getting fireworks and injuring themselves. |

Message | Not at all, we\'re proposing the local governments have the right to do that if they choose it. It\'s not like there are bigger issues at the moment, it\'s not like our economy\'s in the crap due to poor leadership. |
