Bill: Private Enterprise
Details
Submitted by[?]: Konservative Partei
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: December 3258
Description[?]:
| The only reason why the private sector is banned is because the socialists fear that innovative private enterprises will expose the state bureaucracy for what it is: bloated, inefficient and sclerotic. We, on the conservative side, will not hold this country back just because the socialists won't let go of their failed ideology. - Raphael Hertzsch, finance spokesperson for the Konservative Partei. |
