[PASSED!] Safety in Difficult Times (GA #156)

[American Capitalist]

Well, then, laws will need to be made to prevent that since it is corruption of the mind.

That would be simple, Your Excellency. We would simply have to ban perverse literature such as Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead.

Yours in defending against incoming objectivist missiles,

You forgot those evil Glenn Beck books that set our nations Conservative movement back a decade.

[Sionis Prioratus]

We then request that the honorable delegation from Sionis Prioratus add a clause encouraging education concerning retirement programs, including SS.

That is an interesting notion, Your Excellency. However we worry including that under a Social Justice resolution could be a category violation. Any thoughts on this?

On a lesser note, we have some strong reservations against Social Security being called SS, given we already have the Global Emigration, Security, Travel And Passport Organisation

Yours in mutual admiration,

How about Social Protection or Social Insurance?

Those vile things...our nation's Ministry of Education demanded they be banned under the "Protection from Misinformation Act".

Nevertheless, it's gotta be an education program about retirement options and the risks of not enrolling in Social Security or a private option.

And as far as its opting status...that seems a little restrictive. What if nations want to make it mandatory, they need the funding or something. Then they should. It's gotta be left up to choice.

Concerning the possibility of a categorical violation, education mandate is ostensibly social justice, no? Ensuring that those in poor social environments are afforded the same opportunity to be educated about retirement options as those in good ones? It's a bit of a stretch...but I've seen worse during my dealings with the assembly.

We could require PSAs instead of a full on education program.

So, How should trust a WA backed Social Security? I believe that it would hurt growth and competition.

I dont think everyone has television, or maybe some governments dont have the ability to run PSAs?

How about mail programs?

Yours in mutual admiration,

I, the ambassador of the most esteemed Premier of the People's Republic of Stutenland, would be prone to agree with my friend, his Excellency of Soinis Prioratus. The two letters SS have a stigma which would be counterproductive to the goal and intention of this Act and Social Security in general.

How about a mix with internet advertisements as well?

[Sionis Prioratus]

We would like to point out that GA #80, A Promotion of Basic Education, has the following:

• Cognizance of financial mathematics and concepts, currency and economics that is appropriate to the economy of their nation;
• A familiarity with their nation’s governmental policies, processes, civics, rights and freedoms;

Social security education in nations that did not previously have it, could simply be grandfathered in under this clause.

Yours with an inquiring mind,

[Sionis Prioratus]

So, How should trust a WA backed Social Security?

That is a fallacy. No national Social Security will be (financially) backed by the World Assembly.

I believe that it would hurt growth and competition.

How?

It will hurt our own Privatized companies.

[Intellect and the Arts]

It seems at this point, in light of the current verbosity of the draft, that an organizational overhaul and linguistic sharpening would be in order prior to assessing and correcting further issues stemming from myself and my constituents.

If you would be so kind as to exercise the patience, Ambassador, I can have a format and phrasing revision to you by Monday, including any developments and revisions that may occur as a result of conversation here in the interim. Would you accept such an offer?

I could get it done sooner, but I'm in the middle of cleaning and packing for a trip. I can still get it done, mind you, without it interfering with my real life obligations. It'll just take until Monday at the latest.

It is our utmost joy and pleasure to accept it! We hope Your Excellency does not mind if we do not stall development of the draft as-is in the interim. Do not feel pressured by deadlines. We ourselves are in no hurry about submitting this. Quality in Health Services, our previous successful project, took whole five months.

Yours in deep gratitude,

I would like to take this moment to say that you make no fucking sense and need to complete your thoughts. Also if you read the legislation you would know the private enterprise is allowed to participate in a nations social security.

Well Private companies will be run out because the WA has unlimited resources while Private companies don't.

The esteemed delegation from Southrons United is asked to please read the bill. The WA is not funding anything, and private companies are not involved in this process in the slightest. It is simply a mandate that all nations must provide social security for its most vulnerable citizens. This would allow for the improvement of any business catering for the elderly, and does not use the resources of the WA at all. To say they are unlimited is also a fallacy.

In other words, we ask that your esteemed delegation does its research again before considering this resolution further.

Also, to the honorable and respected delegation from Sionis Prioratus, we ask that the resolution be amended to include language to allow mandatory entry into the Social Security program OR opt-in. As we understand, the current language requires opt-in.

It shouldn't require a poor country to suddlenly spend money on Social Security.

It is our intention that it be mandatory, not opt-in. The liberty to opt-out is assured, but individuals will have to actively opt out.

b) Individuals shall retain full freedom to, free from duress, decline to receive any benefits from social security.

Should this language be found unsatisfactory and/or confusing, we shall work to straighten it out.

Yours in sweating,

[Sionis Prioratus]

And what of it?
