Date | 17:20:26, May 20, 2016 CET | From | Alleanza Radicale - NCD | To | Debating the Centrist Economic Agenda |
Message | The privatization of education and health care systems is simply unacceptable. Why the quality of health care and education that can get a person should depend on his income? This decision undermines any ethical principle of equality and fairness for every citizen of our society, a principle which is not explicated only by a formal recognition of equality, but it is also determined by the economic condition and the contributory capacity of the citizen and this decision will be just the beginning for a gap in society that will see fewer people get rich and more and more people become poor to afford proper education and health care and it would see the state intervention in support of low incomes increase substantially with a reduction in government revenue from taxes, which, as we imagine, the Alleanza will certainly cut heavily in the future, which would be in favor practically only for the highest income |

Random fact: In Culturally Protected nations, special care must be taken to ensure realism is maintained when role-playing a government controlled by an ethnic and/or religious minority. If it is to be supposed that this government is supported by a majority of the population, then this should be plausibly and sufficiently role-played. The burden of proof is on the player or players role-playing such a regime to demonstrate that it is being done realistically |
