Putting Reddogkeno101's bill he was writing in the TR thread here, so he doesn't lose it. :)

An Act to Prevent Production and Use of Weapons of Mass Destruction
Author: Reddogkeno101 | Urgency: Low | Sponsors:


The Senate of Aurentina,

Acknowledging That W.M.D.s can be used as deterrents against other nations

Believing using WMDs as a deterrent is not the correct way of conducting Aurentina's International Relations

Establishes The Aurentina WMD Commission (AWC) to combat this.


Section One - Goals of the act

The act aims to end the practice of Gunboat diplomacy using Weapons of Mass Destruction.
The motto of the AWC is "Pacem Triumphi".
The AWC will be formed as an independent watchdog of Aurentinan WMD development and use.
It is hoped that the AWC will eliminate production and use of WMDs.
The Ministry of Defence is to fund and operate the AWC.


Section Two - Staff of AWC

Staff of the AWC shall be either:
A. independent nuclear scientists that examine evidence of WMDs in production or use
or
B. Military Police that gather evidence
All staff are to be payed at least three times the minimum wage for work with the AWC.


Hereby passes the Act to Prevent Production and Use of Weapons of Mass Destruction


Feedback would be appreciated.

I expected to be disagreeing with like a third of your platform, that's all.

Consider the following:

Political Compass
Economic Left/Right: 1.62
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: 0.15


That's not insanely far from center-left moderate libertarianism.

Wasn't the agreement on this that we'd have 3 LD members to make up the temporary Council? Or are we just going to have a free vote on the matter?


And generally, what's the deal on ministerial positions in the government?

Yes. But who from the LD should we appoint as 5th member?

For now, they'll remain ex-LD for ex-LD positions and ex-TR for ex-TR positions. Next time around it'll be just general NDP positions.

I motion we adopt the specific policy of bright green environmentalism in relation to efforts combating climate change.

I also encourage senators to support the concept of technogaianism. Please note that I am not advocating we adopt technogaianism as a platfform position.

Oh my god.

I think I've finally found a type of environmentalism that doesn't make me go into uncontrollable rage mode.
I support peace in Israel and Palestine. The governments and people in power on all sides are an absolute disgrace, and their unwillingness to pursue peace is a disservice to the people they are meant to be serving. The status quo is not simply untenable; it is unquestionably unacceptable.
