[DRAFT #4] Enshrining Healthcare As A Universal Right

[Kurgao]

How does this proposal "install healthcare"? It makes a non-binding declaration and provides infrastructure necessary for nations should they choose to implement universal healthcare. Should this be passed, you could adopt the resolution and do literally nothing.Thank you for the support! I agree a definition for "affordable" is probably a good idea. Not sure how to implement it, though. Any suggestions are welcome, obviously, but either way, thanks for the feedback

id say define affordable as what each individual nations population can afford without strain on their bank accounts or such.

That is an unreasonable standard for many poorer nations and would still allow unreasonable costs in wealthier nations. We believe a better definition would be prices with minimal markup, at most 50%.

Yeah sorry im not that good at this kind of stuff tbh

This is non binding and pointless then.

It establishes something, which takes more money and basically day care funds from nations that don’t have universal healthcare and shouldn’t pay for universal healthcare programs that other nations want.

In light of the presented arguments, i have changed to Against.
This proposal essentially takes money from other nations for the chance that one decides to have Universal Healthcare, which still not may be affordable for poorer nations.

Still trying to figure out the exact wording of an affordability definition. In the meantime:

As I said previously, nations which do not adopt this proposal would not be members of the GAHC and thus not obligated to fund its operations. Also, the entire Assembly is already funded relatively mysteriously, probably by the Assembly's constituent nations. The proposal says that the Assembly grants the GAHC funds, implying it's coming from the Assembly- and is anyone really sure where the Assembly's money comes from?
Also- not entirely sure how this is "non binding and pointless."

Could you elaborate more on what you mean by a minimal markup? What would be the base for the markup?

The argument “if you don’t like it just don’t adopt it” is stupid and pointless, and thus does nothing to justify why your very clearly unrealistic proposal should be adopted into these halls.

Are we… pulling a ‘shadow government’ argument with GA funds to justify the heavy toll upon nation states to fund the GAHC and overall healthcare?

What…

Illegal, you can't say "Worldwide" some nations are in multiverses,
AGAINST

This is absolutely not the case. See paragraph 1 of GA#3, World Assembly Governance Standards:

Well aware of its newly-minted status of international body, serving tens of thousands of nations worldwide

That, and the body is literally called the World Assembly, and the census is called the World Census.
Still though, I suppose it's not a bad thing to change the language to say "multiverse-wide" instead of "worldwide", so I've done just that. I hope I can have your full support now!
