Bill: Regulate the price of prescription drugs
Details
Submitted by[?]: Welsh Eudaimonic Party
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: May 2198
Description[?]:
Pharmecutical Corporations/Companies can reap a disgusting amount of profit from drugs, Currently the government has no way of intervening and setting a FAIR and BALANCED quota a corporation/company can charge individuals or a health service. This, I feel is unacceptable as those that need special medicines (in some cases) to save their own life, especially cancer fighting drugs, keep hitting a wall where they cannot afford to purchase these drugs, or the national healthcare is unable to purchase them due to their alarmingly high prices. This will HOPEFULLY help correct this problem by enabling the government to determine if the company/corporation is making a FAIR profit or a disgusting profit, where they have deliberetly chosen money over a human life. Surely this will serve to add more humanity to Cildania? |

Random fact: It usually takes up to an hour for election results to generate. During this time, the "Next Election" date is put forward a month, which is confusing. Do not worry! In a short time, the election result will generate and the "Next Election" date will then correct itself. |
