Details
Submitted by[?]: Proletariat Revolution 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 2205
Description[?]:
| With a pension plan in place, people will pay into it during their working years and be able to retire, knowing that they will have a guaranteed source of income, even if it is fixed. This income won't burden the tax payers because it comes from years of hardwork. The public system won't interfere with the private system and it'll help ensure that everyone who has ever worked is guaranteed the right to reap the benefits of their diligence. It'll also help them have a secure life as a senior citizen in our nation without worrying about income. |

| Message | They contribute to it via taxes. The taxes deducted from their pay go into the public plan, and thus, they don't have to actually do anything other than work. |
