Having a kid is too damm expensive as it is, why do things to raise the cost for no good reason.

As a father of four, I second this.

I'm pretty sure that's right

The East has decided to forcefully adopt Community and apologizes to the NPO for any inconvenience this may cause. Hail Franco, dead koalas, etc.

I honestly don't even know if I'm allowed to enter.

One of the easiest ways to get a badge is to pay for site supporter.

The cliffhanger here is unbearable. Did Evil Cub ever find the old man?

If that was young him, does that mean his teeth are longer now?

Let's keep this about Evil Wolf.

I leave to get cigarettes for ten minutes and you raid a bunch of regions?

You get this from your mother's side, I swear . . .

You aren't his dad. I just talked to his dad and... Whoops. Disregard.

You're uncle sounds kind of awesome. Tell us more about him.

Appreciating that Red Back's actions directly inspired the security measures present at the borders to Hell, themselves commended by this body, I think you need to make a real case for this part being included or toss it out. Is what he did to inspire the security measures commendable? Also, Hell h...

Red Back is someone, like Evil Wolf, who has contributed far more culturally and politically than just a string of successful invasions. This strikes me as a compelling commendation.

The last commendation proposed was inward focused and misdirected. While it is the belief of myself and many that the region deserves a commendation, the commendation is not deserved for the reasons that were presented in the defeated proposal. This draft seeks to be outward focused, detailing the p...

"This is a waste of the time and resources of the WA. Legislation of sugars is entirely unnecessary and should be left to sovereign nations or their individual citizens. Sugars are far too universal to be regulated and the amount it would cost out of the WA Budget (defined to be based on donat...

Forbidding sugar consumption entirely is a very bad idea.

I agree. That is why my proposal does not seek such a thing.

Is this more palatable? Observing the widespread recreational consumption of manufactured products containing added sugar, especially among minors; Recognizing the addictive nature of sugar; Noting the adverse health effects associated with high consumption of sugar and further noting the high tax-r...

One more thing: Commending them for being members of ADN and UDL in the past is quite strange and seems to lack historical perspective. It would make more sense to commend them for taking the difficult path of divorcing themselves from those organizations that infringed upon their sovereignty. Neith...

To say that I'm a day late and a dollar short here would be putting it kindly but this is a bit of a let down for me, personally. As someone who has spent time in The North Pacific, I know that the inter-regional standard they set for due process and presumption of innocence as well as their bona fi...

So what about ice-cream cones? Tiny loose sweets and candy-apples? Some sweets and other things are sold without wrappings as well. This is a good point. Products sold for on-premise consumption could be required to notate added sugar on menus and product displays. Would that work? Also, what if th...

That is not at issue in this proposal. The proposal is for companies to be required to make consumers aware that they have added sugar to the product they are selling.

Hell, fruits contain sugars and we actually want people to eat more of those than fruit-flavored candies! Not to mention the absurdity of our nation having to wrap Bannanas in their own plastic containers in order to stick a label on it warning of the dangers of sugar in fruit. Do your bananas get ...

How would you recommend doing that?

Elyreia wrote:Hm. I can't help but think that a better proposal would be to enforce more awareness of added sugar content, rather than outright bans. Leave it to the informed citizenry on what to do, rather than banning completely.

Added awareness is what this proposal is about. It doesn't ban added sugar.

Do you feel that the section that specifies this only pertains to added sugar inadequately accounts for this?

As the core of the proposal is about warning labels on a dangerous, albeit socially acceptable, product, I would be willing to remove that part.

This proposal says nothing about a ban. I know it's just recommending banning the sale of sugary foods to kids, I was saying that I find that a little over the top...
