Bill: Budget proposal of January 3706
Details
Submitted by[?]: Partido Nacional
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes to change the allocation of funds in the budget. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline.
Voting deadline: April 3707
Description[?]:
| The Minister-President has no democratic mandate to govern this country. Why should hard-working Gaduris have to shell out millions to pay for the upkeep of her office? She serves no purpose and is a waste of money. Let's cut her budget. Danki, Victorino Santillian Delegate Speaker Partido Nacional |

| Message | Sr. Presidente, This is appalling. Obviously Mr. Santillian has woken up on the wrong side of the rock this morning. This is an insane act by a power-hungry man. The Office of the Minister-Principal is not at fault. It is,indeed, the fault of the right bloc and their Consul Phoebe Dido, or as she is known in some circles 'El Consul Fantasma' ('The Ghost Consul). We reject this vehemently, and expect other parties to do so as well. Danki, Calvin Mason Delegate Speaker Union Socialism Alliance |

| Message | Senor Presidente, We have no need of a Minister-Principal who does not command the support of the Gaduri people. Why are we spending so much money on her? She can afford to cut down on her wardrobe and travel budgets, surely? Victorino Santillian Delegate Speaker Partido Nacional |
| Date | 00:38:09, August 04, 2014 CET | From | Dark-Light Green Communist Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 3706 |
| Message | Senor president we agree to cut the budget, but this budget is still worthess, we must oppose it. |
| Date | 02:21:27, August 04, 2014 CET | From | Progressive Workers of Gaduridos | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 3706 |
| Message | Senor President, I would like to ask Mr. Santillian if he would have proposed the same cut if he were Minister-Principal. While we do believe that both the HoG AND the HoS budget need to be trimmed, it appears that Mr. Santillian is targeting a specific office holder, not the office itself. If that is the case, Senor President, I ask the house to dismiss it as a cheap political ploy. If he really believes that Gaduridan citizens deserve a new Minister-Principal, he should ask the Consul to nominate one. If, however, he is proposing to downsize the OFFICE of the Minister-Principal permanently, then he can count on our support. |

| Message | On the account, when you see the budget present by the anracho-capitalism, this is much better. |
| Date | 13:05:47, August 04, 2014 CET | From | Partido Nacional | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 3706 |
| Message | Senor Presidente, We would be happy to support a restoration of funding for the office of the Minister-Principal once we have a legitimate Minister-Principal in place. Danki, Victorino Santillian Delegate Speaker Partido Nacional |
| Date | 23:40:31, August 04, 2014 CET | From | Dark-Light Green Communist Party | To | Debating the Budget proposal of January 3706 |
| Message | Senor president, we are unhappy with our collegues who just wait for the consul, we need to take action, and not depend on others |

| Random quote: "In a sense we have come to our nation's capital to cash a cheque. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir. This note was a promise that all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the unalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." - Martin Luther King Jr. |
