Alcoholic Drive Through Act

A resolution to ban, legalize, or encourage recreational drugs.


Category: Recreational Drug Use

Decision: Outlaw

Proposed by: Burned lands

Description: RECOGNIZING the ability of nations to set up and regulate the sale of alcohol in the nation, the alcoholic drivethrough act aims to give both national and local stores the ability to distribute alcohol through drivethroughs.

UDERSTANDING the increased risks related to automotive accidents caused by alcohol, the alcoholic drive through act DOES NOT condone the drinking of alcohol while in any vehicle.

ALSO ARGUING that it is the responsibility of a nation to enforce drinking and driving laws, while alcoholic businesses are unable to prevent driving under the influence when a customer is not on their property.

REFERRING to open container laws, drive through alcohol stores do not necessarily break these laws. A closed container includes disposable cups with lids, as long as the straw has not penetrated the seal on the lid. This leads the world assembly to conclude that businesses may sell alcohol by drive through if the straw is not inserted into the cup lid itself.

ALSO BELIEVING that citizens of nations affected by the alcoholic drive through act have a civil duty to understand the national laws and to abstain from alcohol when behind the wheel of any motor vehicle. By this logic, businesses are also not liable for the misuse of alcohol and cannot be held accountable for the injuries of citizens who were under the influence of alcohol.

The alcoholic drive through act overall aims to:
1. Encourage drug and driving laws made by nations
2. Give businesses the ability to sell alcohol to a large amount of citizens through drive throughs
3. Decrease the amount of nations with high drug use ignorance

For giving responsibility to citizens, liberating businesses from accident liability, and encouraging drug regulations and driving laws on the national level, the world assembly hereby proposes the Alcoholic Drive Through Act.

Alcoholic Drive Through Act

RECOGNIZING the ability of nations to set up and regulate the sale of alcohol in the nation

If they really recognize nations' ability to regulate alcohol sales, why do they proceed to override that power?

[Imperializt Russia]

I can't believe people actually submitted those, things! What has the WA become?

It's not really "the WA" because obviously these are things that have just been submitted. No discussion, someone just put finger to keyboard and hit post.

Act of Equality

A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.


Category: Human Rights

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Asgardialaf

Description: INTRODUCTION
Across the world millions of beings, have been continuously descriminated by their sexual orientation and gender. Therefore WA has to take a position and make the world a more fair place.

The Act of Equality shall be defined on the following points:
1 - No being shall be discriminated, by any government, state-owned institution, private institution or individual, in any circumstances, in function of their gender*
2 - Every sexual act that does not oppose fundamental human rights laws and doesn't put at risk any individual or their rights shall be allowed.
3 - Every being is entitled to the search of their inner self containing the answer to their gender ID and sexual orientation. That personal journey has to be allowed freely by the state where one lives and if possible that state should provide education to aim that search.(Sexual Education; Spiritual Guidance...)

NOTES
- Some states have a population different from the human species. However the principles applied are the same: no discrimination shall take part in function of a one identity and sexual conduct

Category: Human Rights

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: The Dictorship of Nobodies

Description: SHOCKED by the lack of control that the world has on the plague of Prostitution in the world and the increase of Sexually Transmitted Diseases (STDs) due to this issue, and

COGNIZANT of the current crisis of human and sex trafficking that exists among the world especially in nations where the economy either suffers or citizens are forced into this field of work due to another issue, and

HOPES that with increase control of this issue, women will be able to escape sex trafficking and be removed from the evils of participating in this immoral activity, and

IS AWARE that people who participate or condone this career field often engage themselves in other immoral activities such as drug abuse and other activities that a multitude of nations find immoral, and

QUESTIONS the knowledge of the nations in Nation States and whether or not they understand that women who participate in this career field often suffer from mental and physical scars down the road and do not receive proper care and treatment from their bosses and often any services they offer they do not get paid directly, rather the owner of the brothels receive the majority of the profit only giving the women a small percentage, and

UNDERSTANDS that women wish to participate in this immoral act and that areas where this career is legalized the brothels often are controlled and women are required to have certain benefits, however the majority of women involved in human trafficking do not receive the same benefits as those in brothels and wish to escape from this path, and

ASKS all nations to inform their citizens, especially the children of the dangers of prostitution and human trafficking and persuade all citizens to engage in a more moral career field and use abstinence instead, and

WISHES that with the reform and stricter control on this career field, women will be able to be liberated from drugs and diseases that plague the career of prostitution, and

RESPECTS nations who feel that prostitution is a healthy career choice, however wishes they see the negative effects of this job and hope their mindset will eventually change, and

REQUESTS that nations take a stand to prevent human trafficking from occurring in the world in order to grant women the safety from corrupt people in the world, and

REALIZES that supporters believe that stricter control on prostitution and human trafficking will remove a persons human rights of a career, but in reality more rights will be granted and given to a woman because they will be able to pursue a career that offers them the acceptance of society and other economic benefits without leaving a negative impression on themselves and towards other people.

Description: Education has been around since the beginning of civilization and as times changed so did education. We are now in a world where technology is so prevalent, but many educational systems still use archaic ways of teaching.

This proposal will do a overhaul of how education system is done in public schools, intergrating a fully digital education system.

WA internet security act

A resolution to promote funding and the development of education and the arts.


Category: Education and Creativity

Area of Effect: Artistic

Proposed by: The French united republic

Description: In modern times companies have gotten out of hand we need to give more to the people right to use copyrighted creations in fair use. Fair use means "under certain circumstances, be quoted verbatim for purposes such as criticism, news reporting, teaching, and research, without the need for permission from or payment to the copyright holder." I feel with act we can also fight piracy by also strengthening security on the internet.

1 By scanning the Internet we could take down websites that give the ability to download and stream content illegally. But in cases like the website Wetube we may take down those videos.

2. Reviews may stay up and be protected if it fits fair use videos should be looked at and seen if it is fair use if not it will be taken down.

3.Copyright should stand for 30 years unless asked by company to extend the length but if in the end of the 30 years it is seen the majority of the people want it in the public domain it may be unless the creator objects.

4.Rental services like CinemaMail and Gamenet rental are only allowed to be able to rent our films and games 1 month after they're released to the market on disc.

5.Television and internet people may use copyrighted works if they contact the company and they say yes if not they are not able to.

6.If a company or person falsely strikes down a person on wetube or other video sharing services the company or person will be held accountable and will have to pay a fine of 5000 to 1000000 [currency] depending on her person or company.

That's the point of this thread, isn't it?

Yeah but mostly due to oversights of the author or people who don't understand the WA. This laughably overshoots even the latter category to "nothing salvageable and never could be".

It openly declares "no-one cares about the WA", it's not as though someone skimmed past the "no WA army" rule and proposed XCOM.

[The Two Jerseys]

Did you really feel the need to list the failures?

It gives the impression that we're being constructive and not just mocking their ridiculous proposal.

Sort of like how you and your coworkers going to a restaurant for lunch and talking about work for 10 seconds allows you to call it a working lunch and charge it to the company.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY PROPOSAL

Municipal and State Police act

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.


Category: International Security

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Gemar

Description: The US of Gemar of the Land Of Kings and Emperors Proposes the Municipal and State Police Act Municipal and State Police forces make up the backbone of all nations' police. This proposal gives more power to these departments and agencies such as follows:

. Creates Joint Terrorist Task Forces between Federal, State, and Municipal police forces within your nation.

. Allows these agencies to help government investigations such as espionage, Nuclear, Biological, and Chemical threats.

. Also gives them the opportunity to have access to National\International Intelligence, recognizing the possible dangers of allowing these agencies such access.

This does not create World Police Forces, just police forces in your own nation. Also, it would improve security ( and possibly expose it depending on the form of government. Also keep in mind that Municipal means town or city, and state as in a state or province.)

Cultural Sanctuary

A resolution to promote funding and the development of education and the arts.


Category: Education and Creativity

Area of Effect: Cultural Heritage

Proposed by: Salandil

Description: Synopsis:
The protection of national, regional, and wold legacy and culture from destruction and pillaging.

Reasoning:
Often times through history and wars during the invasion or defeat of any sovereign nation, state, or entity the prevailing party (or parties) have carried out the destruction, theft, or appropriation of the former's culture. This creates a loss of heritage and culture on a world level and creates a less vibrant history for the people of the world

Details:

-Nations may dedicate areas of land, buildings, art works, published materials, or copyrighted materials created in their state, by peoples originating in their state, or through language or geographical regional origins as protected under "Cultural Sanctuary"

-Making the state enforced, sanctioned, or implemented theft of "Cultural Sanctuary" treasures illegal.

-Appropriation of another state's property under "Cultural Sanctuary" outside of the above origination is illegal

-Multiple claims of "Cultural Sanctuary" due to disputed origin shall be settled by disputing claimants, unless claimants petition the World Assembly for mediation

-In cases of wars, armed conflict, occupation, or any form of unilateral action, the Cultural Sanctuary claims shall stay with the originating nation. No nation or entity may appropriate said Sanctuary items. Items will be continually recognized from the originating entity.

-Recognized indigenous peoples shall have rights as pursuant to sovereign states

-Items that are disputed due to creation in antiquity that can not be attributed to one entity (ie items created pre-recorded history, or during large classical empires that spanned multiple peoples) can be placed under "Historical Sanctuary" and attributed to Regional, Demographic, Language, or Political Entity prevalent in area at the time.

-Any sovereign entity found in guilty of the destruction of cultural heritage of any other, or their own sovereign entity shall have sanctions, condemnations, and possible removal of endorsements from the offending entity.

-Offenders found off gross, willful, destruction of above mentioned items under "Cultural Sanctuary" or "Historical Sanctuary" will be removed from the World Assembly.

That very last line makes it illegal for game mechanics

Council on Global Criminals

A resolution to improve world security by boosting police and military budgets.


Category: International Security

Strength: Mild

Proposed by: The United Assassin Emirates

Description: A resolution to create a world council that decides the fate of global criminals.

DEFINING that a global criminal is someone who has committed a crime against humanity (genocide, unreasonable scientific experimentation, etc.) that affects at least 5 nations. This person could also be someone who has committed various crimes in multiple countries.

CREATING a council that monitors the world for criminals. This council would also have the ability to partner itself with national governments to seek out criminals. This council contains members from each WA nation.

STATING that all criminals deserve the right to a fair trial. No matter how terrible the crime, all criminals have the right to a lawyer and a trial. The jury is to be made of non-affected nations to ensure an unbiased jury.

NOTING that many global criminals remain hidden and out of the hands of authorities. Also, that the creation of this council will result in the lowering of global crime rates.

CONCLUDING that this resolution creates a global council that will actively hunt down global criminala and give them fair trails.

"creates a global council that will actively hunt down global criminala and give them fair trails."
Sounds like a World Police organization to me. Seems to be some duplication with #37 as well.

And, NS =/= 1 planet.

(Fair trails??)

Digital Education Act

A resolution to promote funding and the development of education and the arts.


Category: Education and Creativity

Area of Effect: Educational

Proposed by: Magearna

Description: To promote teaching kids to their personal fullest potential, countries education system would be brought entirety into the digital age.

Every elementary/middle/high school would have computers for their students that have a program that would also monitor and track the Students progress and their capability of the skill. With this tracking feature, it would allow the program to scale the difficulty of the topic/subject. With this feature, the program would able to scale back or increase the difficulty, and the grade level for every individual. This will ensure that every student is learning to their own maximum potential so no students would be hindered or fall behind others like in traditional classroom teaching.

How this would be implemented is that every student would get their own unique ID and password that will allow them to access and save their progress even if they transfer schools or move to a different area.

Each nation will still have say in what the curriculum teaches and who runs the system.

If this proposal goes through this would increase the world's average education and maximizes the potential growth possible in education in nations

Resubmitted, after alteration apparently. Now it's just a blog.

World Oceans

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


Category: Environmental

Industry Affected: All Businesses

Proposed by: Kurman

Description: Oceans are the lifeblood of our planet and humankind.
They produce more than half of the oxygen in the atmosphere, and absorb the most carbon from it.

No matter how far from the shore a nation is, oceans still affect their citizens families, friends and enemies.

So to protect this vital part of the planet, this resolution:

Recommends that any mining/drill activity (oil, ore...) which is established at a distance of 400 kilometers (international waters) of any nation is not permitted. Any activity within limit of 400 kilometers is allowed.

Considers the fishing of species that have been recognized by the national government or region as endangered, is an act of disrespect and violation to such national laws and to this resolution.

Reaffirming that the seabed and ocean floor and subsoil thereof, beyond the limits of national jurisdiction, don't have a claim of any nation and are part of all humankind.

Concludes with the formation of an International Ocean Convention (IOC) which will evaluate the progress made with the effect of this resolution five years later.

Wishes that all nations and regions respect one of the most key parts of our planet and there is not an abuse of the resources displayed.

This resolution is not just for this generation benefits, but also for the future.

Committee only, does nothing. NS =/= Earth
