Bill: Cheaper goods for consumers of Aldegar
Details
Submitted by[?]: Sunshine 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: November 2218
Description[?]:
We should not over price the goods citizens want to buy with taxes. Citizens should not be punished because they want what they do by the State imposing tariffs on what are often essential goods. We ought to seek other ways of punishing importing nations for imposing taxes on our exported goods (which, according to Tresury figures, are zero anyway). |
Proposals
Article 1
Proposal[?] to change International trade (this is a default in the absense of a specific free trade agreement or specific trade embargo)
Old value:: The nation imposes reciprocal tariffs on imports, with no tariffs imposed on states which impose no tariffs on our exports.
Current: The nation imposes reciprocal tariffs on imports, with no tariffs imposed on states which impose no tariffs on our exports.
Proposed: The nation does not impose any tariffs or quotas on imports.

Message | We support the existing tariffs on the goods of nations which impose tariffs upon us. Whilst sateguarding Aldegar's economic interests, we believe this policy will also advance the cause of creating a free trade world by encouraging other nations to remove their trade barriers.
