Details

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: January 4918
Description[?]:
| Our economy is not built on meritocracy but instead built upon ruthlessness, because of that it is time to implement change, 1. We must not allow the power of energy companies to dominate the lives of families by being able to charge what they want to the consumer, their is no market for energy, it is an inelastic market and thus the government needs to step in and stop this exploitation. 2. We must not allowed advertisements to lie and use dirty tricks on our population, we think letting our government set up simple rules, like no lying, no tricks, would allow our citizens to live happier lives free from the poison of lies. 3. Democratic Workers' Councils are better for workers as they allow them more liberty in deciding how they want to run their workplace, we should incentivize them and give our workers more of a say |

| Message | Mr. Speaker, I would like to tell the honorable member that the working class would not pay any more under today's bill as their energy cost will be kept low by the state, and that the current system is ripe for abuse as energy companies can charge drastically high prices while the taxpayer is footing the bill.

| Random fact: It is not allowed to call more than 5 elections in 5 game years in a nation. The default sanction for a player persisting in the early election tactic will be a seat reset. |
