Bill: Privitization of the Health Service
Details
Submitted by[?]: Partisans And Artisans League
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: November 2082
Description[?]:
| We believe that a fully comprehensive health care system can be run by the private sector and there is therefore no reason for government interference in this area. The government would obviously provide the necessary funds for those to poor to pay. This would be on an ascending scale of payments with the very poorest and most destitute at the top having their care covered completely. We believe that this one significant step to the government decreasing in size. |
Proposals

Proposal[?] to change Health care policy.

Current: There is a free public health care system and a small number of private clinics, which are heavily regulated to ensure they treat their patients well and provide good care.

| Message | Labor is?!?! Man, I didn't expect that! No, I don't really need you to explain why you don't support this - I took it that you would. Perhaps "condemn[ing]" the bill is a bit strong - it isn't after all some sort of war crime. :-) |
