Establishment Of An International Currency
A resolution to reduce barriers to free trade and commerce.

Category: Free Trade

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Imortan Empire

Honorable Representatives,
I write today to propose the idea of an international currency to promote greater commerce between our nations. The provisions of my proposal include the following:

I: The World Assembly will establish a world bank for the production and maintenance of a new currency, hereby known as the "Terra."

II: The World Bank will be headed by a council of twelve nations. This council will be headed by one of the twelve, with the remaining eleven acting as a group to vote on and maintain bank functions. The head of the council shall act as a final decider on all votes put forward by the council.

III: Each region will have a local branch of the World Bank, lead by a council of six to twelve nations selected by regional leaders.

IV: All members of the World Assembly will adopt the Terra once they have achieved an economic ranking of good or higher. Members not meeting this requirement should be encouraged to adopt economic policies to meet the standards of the bank.

V: The Banking Council will be observed and regulated by a committee of the General Assembly. Membership of this committee is at the discretion of the General Assembly.

Any further provisions may be added at the General Assembly's pleasure following the successful passing of this proposal. I thank you for your consideration of this proposal.
Long Live the World Assembly!

Blogging. If there are more violations I haven't noticed, let me know.

Mandating a specific currency violates game mechanics.

"Grand Theft Auto"? That doesn't seem like a reasonable phrase to use in any context other than the video game.

[Honeydewistania]

Grand Theft Auto is a real term used to describe carjacking by the law. I think the capitalisations make it seem like its referencing the game, but it is a real term.

[Graintfjall]

Grand Theft Auto is the US legal term for motor vehicle theft. So using that term is a bit US-centric, but not a RL reference.

2. Nuclear purchases by any country are limited to 5 a year
3. Ministers of Nuclear Development of any kind shall hereby be moved to Minister of defense or co-minister if there already is one active.

RL reference ($).

Also, not a legality issue, but "Nuclear purchases by any country are limited to 5 a year"? Five? Five what? Warheads? Complete systems? SSBNs?

Declaration of election day as a legal holiday

A resolution to increase democratic freedoms.

Category: Furtherment of Democracy

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: N0RTHLAND

The World Assembly,

Recognizing the highest significance of election as an exercise of our democracy.

Welcoming the intention to protect the right to vote especially for the working class; in order for them to have the chance to perform their civic duty without a cut in their salary.

Believing that it is the duty of the World Assembly to ensure the performance of every citizen's civic duty to vote.

Encouraging the members of the World Assembly to establish an international framework that allows equal opportunity for all citizens to vote, encompassing all classes

The World Assembly Hereby:
1.) Mandates member states to declare Election day as a legal holiday.

2) Requires companies/ corporations/ institutions to provide just compensation for labor workers during legal holidays.

3) Prohibits No Work No Pay policy during election day and other legal holidays.

Strength violation -- and since the "prohibits no work no pay policy during (...) legal holidays" part is far stronger than the mandate in 1), perhaps also category?

It's generally considered bad form to post proposals here that already have their own thread. Though I agree with the critique.

Nature Protection Law
A resolution to increase the quality of the world's environment, at the expense of industry.

Category: Environmental

Industry Affected: All Businesses - Mild

Proposed by: Mihro

The World Assembly,

There are more and more good companies that are benefiting a lot of people. but buildings in every nation are also raising, as well as pollution and global warming. So we must make a law to protect not only our nature and forests, but also our animals and ourselves
The law proposed by Mihro will govern the restoration and protection of landscape, natural areas, plants, animals, and their habitats.

Principles of the law:

> Every legal person shall cooperate in preventing incidents that may harm nature, eliminating harm, and shall restore the affected nature to its original state.

> Removal of danger or harm at source shall be a priority.

> Companies that will cause pollution shall pay fees or taxes for the use of nature in any activities that will make damage or harm the forest or nature.

> The nature protection law shall be achieved also through education.

Why we should protect our nature

> Forests pump out oxygen we need to live and absorb the carbon dioxide we exhale. A single mature, leafy tree is estimated to produce a day's supply of oxygen for anywhere from two to 10 people.

> 300 million people live in forests worldwide, including an estimated 60 million indigenous people whose survival depends almost entirely on native woodlands.

> Trees absorb carbon dioxide that powers the global warming.

> They fight flooding.

> They feed us. Trees produce fruits, nuts, seeds and sap.

> They help us make things. Also they help us explore and relax.

Ban Of Positive Action AKA Reverse Sexism Or Racism
A resolution to restrict civil freedoms in the interest of moral decency.

Category: Moral Decency

Strength: Mild

Proposed by: 2b2t players

positive action is just racism,but pro minorities,so why should it be allowed? racism is look down apon when its against minorities,but when the roles are reversed,its positive? we should ban it so that we can lower the total amount of racism. here are 3 reasons we should ban it
1: racism against minorities is illegal for most countries,so why is racism against non minorities not illegal?
2: its a drag on the economy,as people are hiring on race instead of skill.
3: it leads to higher college dropout rates,as students who aim too high are accepted due to their race,get overwhelmed,and drop out.

Doesn't seem to actually *do* anything (gives reasons to ban, but doesn't actually ban anything). Likely duplication with previous passed Resolutions. Understandable English rule. Not written as law. "Moral Decency" seems to be the wrong category.

We need a head of the counsel how do we do this you may ask? Well simple we need members with at least 2 endorsements to run as canidets the winner will be voted on by everyone in the world assembly.

Rule one leader count's as 3 votes.
Rule 2 he can only run twice.
Rule 3 he runs in 2 month terms.
