Bill: Freedom of Media
Details
Submitted by[?]: Pure Capitalism 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: July 2244
Description[?]:
| Currently the government controls large aspects of the media by having the ability to bribe news stations into putting forth whatever programming the government wants them to promote, we have noticed that most of the "educational" programming is nothing more than thinly veiled propaganda designed to make people believe that being parasites dependant upon the government for food and shelter is a good thing. This must End! To that end the PCP has created the Freedom of Media bill that (if passed into law) will kill the ability of the government to have it's own propaganda stations and return the media to the hands of the people of Dranland. Free the Markets, Free the Minds! Signed, Ayn Rand |

| Random quote: "The Revolution needs to progress. We as humans need to evolve into higher beings through better moral virtues. And we can achieve that if we clean ourselves from the immoral. Those who go against the Revolution, go against human progress and must be freed in the most humane way possible. That is why we introduced the guillotine." - Maximus Robertson, former Davostani revolutionary |
