Bill: Adjustment of Electricity Policy

Details

Submitted by[?]: Coalition for Unity and Prosperity

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: November 3932

Description[?]:

The CUP firmly believes in providing both public and private options. In the case of the power grid, the Nation would be better served with a unified grid which allows for the sharing of power and resources between all regions. Each provides what it can at any given time and all grow stronger because of it.

MessageThis is ridiculous. We sincerely hope that the National Freedom Party will not push forward these destructive bills. We cannot allow ourselves to rely on a highly centralized system, it does not work! It does not matter if this system is communist or capitalist, centralization on a mass scale will always fail miserably.

MessageThis was not proposed by us. I oppose Article Two, but nonetheless approve the opening of electrical sectors for the private sector.

MessageThe CUP, while a firm believer in emotional declarations with no evidence or rationale, kindly insists that the EPB please provide some rationale for your insistence that centralization of electricity production "always fails miserably."

MessageThe CUP kindly questions the NFP: Why?

MessageIf the state's grid goes down, everyone's grid goes down. We do not want liberal degenerates running our power grid! Local authorities deserve the ability to fund and maintain their power grids - not to be taxed with a centralized system.

MessageTaxation happens either way, and the CUP firmly believes taxes are not a burden but the pleasant duty of every productive citizen. The CUP also believes that fear and panic should not govern national policy. The CUP imagines that there is a possibility that the grid can be damaged or a section disrupted without "everyone going down." Indeed, modern science created the grid and it seems very possible to maintain it. The CUP has never heard of this apocalyptic shut-down but should it even be possible (doubtful) we are surely capable of correcting it. Indeed, if the possibility of machine failure were to be a real barrier to economic growth the CUP wonders if you would not be happier - the world might still be in the very local feudal-tribal system of recent centuries, which the EPB firmly believes in.
