OOC: Are you implying what I think you're implying?

I'm taking it that he believes I am a fan of Monty Python, which I am.

As am I, hence the comment.

Repeal "Workplace Safety Standards Act"
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation


Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#7
Proposed by: Harrylandd

Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #7: Workplace Safety Standards Act (Category: Human Rights; Strength: Significant) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

Argument: Everyone has the right to be safe and people that buy from companies without safety standards often are unaware of the well-being of the employees. Here are my reasons for repealing this resolution:
1. It could save millions of lives in the future.
2. People will feel better buying products from the places where these products are made.
3. Why should where you work effect how long you work.
4. by reducing injuries and deaths we are making the world a better place and that is what the WA is made for.
5.by reducing injuries and deaths in the manufacturing industry people will work for longer and pay tax longer.

So, let me get this straight... Harrylandd wants to make the workplace safer and more profitable by repealing workplace safety standards?

That sounds like wanting lower teen pregnancy rates by encouraging unprotected sex among teens. Oy.

I don't think that was a joke, BA...do remember, there is an Anti-Ponyist Alliance in there somewhere.

But yeah, while this statement doesn't make it an illegality in its own right, I can kinda see the CoPS having a field day with this one (although, when you think of it, it dies seem like an Ideological Ban).
