Bill: Schools Sex & Sport - Sensible Society Suggestion 3377
Details
Submitted by[?]: Red Vanguard Dominion
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: September 3377
Description[?]:
| THE CURRENT LAWS On prostitution are puritanical and backwards. The oldest profession has been thoroughly accepted by the second oldest profession for many decades, and the current ban only introduced through pork barrel bills passed whilst we all abstained. Let us return justice to those who shall work that job regardless of legality. SCHOOLS Are not to be run by private individuals. Schools are not businesses, schools should not sell products, schools should not train future consumers. Schools are, like water and food, owned by all for all. Let us return education to the people. SPORTS CLUBS Should also be owned by the collective People of Al'Badara, not those seeking to sell overpriced hats and jerseys. Let us give the people entertainment, and let them manage it. |

| Random quote: As for rape, of course, that is a direct consequence of the capitalist system of oppression. Capitalism relies on fuelling division and resentment to sustain itself, and so it sets men against women, race against race and so on. Men rape women because they are being oppressed by capitalism, so they take it out on women. Under Communism, there will be no rape, because there will be a full and natural harmony and equality between the genders. ~ Friedrich Pfeiffer General Secretary of the Dorvish Communist Party |
