Bill: M.A.R.C. #47: "Public Transportation Reform Act"

Details

Submitted by[?]: Medrisite-Associated Revisionist Council

Status[?]: passed

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 3305

Description[?]:

"Free public transportation, even for those who have the means to pay? Ridiculous. We cannot afford to be throwing money away for such a meaningless cause. I am fully for subsidizing the cost of public transport for those who cannot afford to find a way from work to home and back again, but for those who are well off the system cannot be more broken!

Regarding the trains, what's wrong with a little competition? A national Pontesi train company is fine, but why outlaw private operating companies? We'll be stimulating the economy if we allow for people to choose which provider they wish, and the competition will force companies to improve service at lower costs. There's no sense in the current law."

Chairman R. Benjamin Olson, M.A.R.C.

    Random fact: It is the collective responsibility of the players in a nation to ensure all currently binding RP laws are clearly outlined in an OOC reference bill in the "Bills under debate" section of the nation page. Confusion should not be created by displaying only some of the current RP laws or displaying RP laws which are no longer current.
