As I do not see it in the platform, it is most likely a free vote issue. However, I believe most of our members would not approve of a death penalty.

What if someone wants to sign away their rights to freedom of speech, religion, etc? The law cannot recognise contracts in which one party "willingly" gives away its rights, precisely because one would never do that by choice, and is always pressured by an inequality of power between the two parties, which from a very narrow perspective may be a convincing facsimile of a choice (i.e: capitalism). The inherent injustice of private property is after all the fundamental point of socialism.

You immediately know a bill got's something to do with guns when it's got "Reasonable" or "Sensible" or something like that in the title apparently.

If the means of production are to be seen as a right for workers, private ownership of the means of production cannot legally exist since it would go against such a right. In my opinion, the classless society does not allow for the existence of private ownership of the means of production.
If you are concerned about a lack of choice, for workers who may not want to have to control every aspect of the operation of their workplaces, they can always elect managers to run the affairs of the workplace.![]()
On another note, I have no issue with including the death penalty in the programme proposal, if party members do not have objections to it.

Also, in my opinion, when there are enough strong worker owned companies, they should, in theory, be able to work more efficiently and better than privately owned companies, making it pointless to ban privately owned companies (cause in theory they wouldn't be able to get enough labour to exist). That's just my thoughts, anyway.
