Bill: The Animal Cosmetics Bill of 3223
Details
Submitted by[?]: Selucian Green 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: January 3224
Description[?]:
| We believe that animals should be treated with some respect and this is a cruel thing which potentially can harm and cause many animals to suffer needlessly for mere vanity products. This does not help save lives; this only damages the lives of the animals involved. Hence we believe that Animals should not be used for ANY cosmetic research. |

| Message | This is rubbish! Though that law hundreds of thousand of jobs would be destroyed. |

| Message | Funny you say that. The SLP cannot understand why you oppose 'hundreds' of jobs being "destroyed", but refuse to allow thousands become created. See Military equality from DRU and Compulsory Schooling from SLP. |

| Message | Hundreds of thousands? Why don't we get the researchers who do this appalling research to do something actually worthwhile like researching cures for serious diseases. Your statement is exaggerated and you have no solid proof, why don't your party members volunteer to be tested on for beauty products and see how you like it? |

| Message | We wish to information the SLP that there is a huge difference between creating jobs using taxpayer money to fund projects that defies common sense, and by letting the free market to do what it's best at. A rat suffers a lot less from humane experiments than from being eaten by a cat, yet we are not seeing you squishy liberals trying to outlaw cats. |
| Date | 23:04:19, December 05, 2011 CET | From | Selucian Liberal Party | To | Debating the The Animal Cosmetics Bill of 3223 |
| Message | A cat killing a rat is nature, Humans using cosmetics on a rat is not. Your party quite clearly fails to recognise the extreme pain that some animals have to go through. These experiments are not humane. |

| Random fact: When you join the game, you will find yourself with only zero seats. That's because your party's representatives haven't been elected yet. You need to establish your party's position on issues by proposing several bills that your party wants passed and sending them to vote. This raises your visibility and if you do it enough, you will win seats at the next election. |
