Details
Submitted by[?]: Folkepartiet
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: March 4470
Description[?]:
| Delegates, It is time for Folkepartiet to make clear its position on the economy and economics. For too long, through the consensus and the compromise of politics, the voters have become disenfranchised with us as nothing more than fence-sitters. In this resolution, I wish to make it clear where we stand. We stand with the people of Kazulmark, with their hopes and their dreams for a fairer and more socially just future. Theis Kristiansen Fp Delegate from Agatha |

| Message | OOC: I am obviously setting this up to target my ideology on small vs large government. I'll be voting against, so if you don't want to mess up your own ideology positions - or are happy with them as they are - just abstain, it won't pass anyway. |
