Details
Submitted by[?]: Unternehmenspartei
Status[?]: defeated
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: July 4184
Description[?]:
It is the duty of every citzen to defend his or her country in war, and we do not blame or criticise the government in any way for expecting that. However, on practical, military grounds, we do question the wisdom of compelling citizens to serve in the armed forces against their will. Isn't there a risk that they will go into their roles with a bad attitude, and that their presence in the ranks could undermine morale within the forces? Maybe it would be better to give these people non-combat roles instead, where they can still be useful, but where they will cause less problems? Helmut Wolfensohn Chairman of the Enterprise Party |

Random fact: Cultural Protocol bills must provide a real-life equivalent or short description for the ethnic groups, languages and religions contained in them, such that it would be easy for an unfamiliar player to understand (e.g. "Dundorfian = German"). Where appropriate, they should also provide guidance to players on where to find help with translations and character names. This might include, for example, links to Google Translate, Behind the Name's Random Name Generator and Fantasy Name Generators. |
