Bill: Private Transportation Act II
Details
Submitted by[?]: Beluzian Defense and Federalist 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: July 2200
Description[?]:
| As a citizen of Beluzia, I do not understand why we are unable to own any car we so choose. Environmentally friendly cars can cost a lot more, limiting the availability of personal transportation to our lower classes. I like the idea of environmentally friendly cars, but think that if people are willing to pay more for gas, they should be able to drive anything they want. |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change The government's policy concerning private cars.
Old value:: Only cars using environmentally friendly fuels are allowed.
Current: Only cars using environmentally friendly fuels are allowed.

| Message | Any family, lower income or otherwise, can travel free on the public transit system. And if only environmentally friendly cars are allowed, they will be cheaper than an economic system with both kinds. Since the business can only make one type of car, they are going to do so at a cheaper rate than if these cars were "special." |
