Bill: Social Reform Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Techno-Revolutionary 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: August 2742
Description[?]:
| Lower the Retirement Age to 60. It is an appropriate age and while it is higher than the older value, it is lower than the current value. It is a good compromise for all those concerned. Remove the existing restrictions on tobacco sales. Barmenian people are not stupid nor are they our slaves; they know what they are putting into their bodies and they should be able to do this freely without the government intervening and violating their bodily sovereignty. The government should not have an official state religion. It should officially be a neutral mediator. |
