Bill: New Socialism Program
Details
Submitted by[?]: Revolutionäre Sozialistische Partei
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 4421
Description[?]:
After the reformation of the Workers Anarchist Federation into the Workers Socialist Party, we wish to establish some reforms our party wishes to carry out. Most of the program concerns itself with the loss of Dorvish militarism and nationalism, and so establishes new restrictions and liberties on the armed forces. Other changes are the nationalization of banks and the implementation of restrictions on abortion. Kuno Rottmann President of the ASP |

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 |
