Bill: The Liberal Program: negotiations

Description[?]:

Following our victory in the elections, we want to negotiate with our partners on the basis of this program:
-Abolish the 45% and 18% tax rates
-Decrease the luxury goods tax from 20 to 10%
-Decrease Health budget to 45 billions
-Decrease defense budget to 40 billions
-Decrease education budget to 20 billions
-Defence industries are privately owned and not subsidised.*
-All banks are privately owned.
-Child labour is allowed, but with additional regulations to those of adult labourers.
-The exchange rate of the national currency is allowed to float, and the government does not intervene at all.
-No employee representation is required on corporate boards
-The law does not mandate or encourage profit sharing programs.
-All forms of physical punishment are illegal.
-This decision is up to the schools themselves without government regulation (concerning sexual education in schools)
-All radio stations are private.
-The government sets a range of standards (to be determined) but these only apply to movie theaters. Extremely violent or hardcore pornography won't be allowed in movie theaters.
-Only licensed people may hunt endangered animals.
-The government designates ecological preservation zones but does not fund their oversight.
-Either partner may initiate a divorce

And of course: fundamental rights and the legislation passed by the previous cabinet cannot be repealed.

FromMonarchist Tory Party
ToDebating the The Liberal Program: negotiations
MessageWe can support some of these proposals, however there are also many that we cannot get behind. We would be going against a core philosophy of the party to decrease health funding by that much. In addition, we can also not get behind the complete ban of all physical punishment. We are also reluctant to accept, but not completely opposed to a decrease in education funding, and would only accept one if a reliable alternative can be put in place. We would suggest an entire overhaul of the education system, with many policies being centralised instead of devolved, and the relaxation of a biased political education. This can be discussed further if we reach that stage.

In order to even contemplate working with the Liberals, we would also need a guarantee that the monarchy will be protected, and that it shall not be touched, altered or abolished in any way throughout the term.

FromSocial Democratic Party
ToDebating the The Liberal Program: negotiations
MessageWe're against the tax cuts, the budget cuts, the rollback of workers influence and the privatisations. As it stands right now, I can't see how we would ever come to an agreement over a political program.

MessageWe do not see ourselves backing the Liberals after their blatant attempt at a power-grab.
