Bill: Libertarian Health Reform Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberecana Unio
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 4167
Description[?]:
Our country needs health reform. Healthy people results in happy people and thriving economy! By allowing a lot to local governments, it makes the central government seem uninterested in the well being of the citizens, so I suggest you consider this Bill carefully. This bill takes care of the citizens, whilst not infringing at all on their freedoms, or on the economy. |
