Bill: Right to Vice Amendment
Details
Submitted by[?]: Sekowan Freedom Party
Status[?]: passed
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 2214
Description[?]:
| Gambling - As gambling is legal in licenced casinos and not an overly malicious activity, people should be free to gamble within the privacy of their own homes as well. Prostitution - Why in the world should the state have a monopoly on prostitution? This is grossly inefficient. We propose instead that it be a legal and recognized profession within the confines of the labor and business markets. Also, prostitution should not be illegal because forcing prostitutes to work in secret under fear of the law will result in oppression by pimps + customers and a greater chance of disease spreading. |
