Bill: Budget proposal of 2339
Details
Submitted by[?]: Renewal Party
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This bill proposes to change the allocation of funds in the budget. It requires more than half of the legislature to vote yes. This bill will pass as soon as the required yes votes are in, or will be defeated if unsufficient votes are reached on the deadline.
Voting deadline: January 2340
Description[?]:
| This bill adjusts spending levels to take into account the decrease in the expense of income tax collection due to the implementation of a flat tax on high rate payers and near elimination of taxes for low rate payers. It incorporates savings from ending state propaganda and a decrease in the cost of medication due to deregulation of the pharmacutical industry. A modest increase in the defense budget is proposed to account for the need for new technology and upgrades. |
