Bill: Tucker DWC Aid Package Bill
Details
Submitted by[?]: Catholic Workers Union
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: July 2278
Description[?]:
| Can we all agree that while DWC's perhaps shouldn't be mandatory, they do serve a purpose in giving workers a greater say in their jobs? This bill would only help those DWC's, many of which are small businesses, which have survived the recent deregulation of the market place or have existed independently for years. |
Proposals

Proposal[?] to change Government policy on Democratic Workers' Councils.
Old value:: The government does not intervene in the marketplace with regards to Democratic Workers' Councils.

| Message | We can pass a resolution to do this, without also encouraging DWCs in other sectors. That is, if we choose to do so. |

| Message | It's not an obsession, but DWC's are the closest the game comes to allowing us to fullfill our major objective and ideology, which is indutrial democracy. We're not old school socialist, we're industrial democrats, hence the name. Anyway, DWC's are a death blow to economic royalism. So please support. Help our small businesses which give equal say to all their employees. |

| Message | No, DWC's are simply councils of sodomites and satanists sent to kill Christians and the Telamonian Dream. |
| Date | 17:33:43, September 02, 2006 CET | From | Catholic Workers Union | To | Debating the Tucker DWC Aid Package Bill |
| Message | The Telamonite Dream is one of justice and cooperation. We do not recognize the lies of the Telamonian Dream. |
