"This bill is not about helping the rich this is being fair, the sales tax is to high. Plus not everyone who buys a luxary good is rich, if someone has saved their money up for a luxary good we shouldn't change a 50 percent sales tax on it. This is about being fair to people. We should tax it but, have it lowered'-Commissar Nate Burton |

Message | We feel a high sales tax on luxury goods only really hurts the lower classes. The rich will buy them no matter what, but the workers can't afford them. The workers deserve a better life. We'll support. |

Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map. |
