Bill: Health Care Reform
Details
Submitted by[?]: Alliance 44
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: September 2305
Description[?]:
| Article 1 - There is no reason to waste tax incomes on financing the distribution of free contraceptives. That is simply not a government-related issue. Article 2 - We see no point in prohibiting private health care institutions as long as a basic and regulated service is available to all of our citizens. Article 3 - Instead of money-wasting encouragement of needless drugs use, we should provide subsidised drugs only to those who cannot afford them. Article 4 - Allowing drugs leading to physical addiction like tobacco and alcohol while prohibiting harmless cannabis? Stop that hypocracy! Article 5 - Why should people have no right to set up a sports club on their own? It's ok to sudsidise mass sports events and promote a healthy lifestyle, but why on earth should be prohibit the founding of a private petanque club, e.g.? |
