Prohibition Of Automated Citizenship
A resolution to restrict political freedoms in the interest of law and order.

Category: Political Stability

Strength: Strong

Proposed by: Asterguard

The World Assembly,

Recognizing that automated citizenship is legally and financially hazardous to human life

Agreeing that automated citizenship takes away sources of income from human individuals

Noting the both positive and negative byproducts of robotic citizenship,

Hereby,
Defines automated citizenship as

Any artificial life-form assuming the rights and responsibilities of a nations citizen

An artificial worker taking on tasks in a nations work-force that would otherwise be provided to human individuals

Any robotic system used to accomplish a task that would normally be performed by a human individual

Allows robotic operations to the extent of

Precision operations, such as that of the production of products that require precision-cutting

Any machine used to accomplish precision or ordinary task so long as it is operated by a human individual.

A machine used for tasks that would otherwise be impossible for human hands to accomplish

Prohibits

Automated computers and/or robotic machines to assume citizenship in any society

Assumed robotic takeover of human jobs

Robotic substitution for (in the scenario of absence of said worker) human operations

Any form of rights or favorable treatment for an automated machine


Might be in contradiction of GAR#35 'Charter of Civil Rights' and GAR#355 'Rights of Sapient Species', insofar as robots are inhabitants of a member nation, or sapient, respectively.

Especially in contradiction of GAR#354 'AI Coexistence Protocol'.

The Banning Of Cigarettes And Cigars
A resolution to restrict civil freedoms in the interest of moral decency.

Category: Moral Decency

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Godnumia Verblentaul

SUMMARY
A law to ban cigarettes, cigars, and smoking in general.

BELIEVING that smoking is harmful to a person's health and affects everyone around them negatively.

RECONGNIZING the side effects of smoking on a person's body and the environment.

AFFECTS
1. Smoking becomes illegal in the nation.
2. Reduced chance of lung cancer, overall improving a person's life.
3. Reducing the spread of Carbon Monoxide in the air, improving the environment.
4. Tobacco companies go out of business.
5. An increase of cigars and cigarettes on the black market.

Another one with no operative clause. Looks oddly similar to the alcohol one.

General Assembly Proposal
ID: hexinati_1555853989

Repeal: “Rights And Duties Of WA States”
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#2

Proposed by: Hexinati

General Assembly Resolution #2 “Rights and Duties of WA States” (Category: Political Stability; Strength: Mild) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

World Assembly,

This repeal is not aimed at stripping the rights of WA members, but aimed at removing the parts of this Resolution that are outdated and are no longer appropriate for the WA community today. The resolution "Rights and Duties of WA States" must be rewritten to better fit the current state of the WA.

This resolution was written just over ELEVEN years ago when the WA was new and there were much less tension between different ideologies. The rights seen as necessary then, may no longer apply to today's World Assembly.

Section III, Article 10 states that the WA must stay neutral in all wars and is unable to support any side in war. This means that all innocent people suffering through the lack of access to food and water, and the innocent who are being prosecuted because of who they are, are unable to be helped by the WA if it involves the WA taking military action. If a WA nationstate is in a war where people are suffering due to fighting, then the WA must have the ability to intervene and help those who are being negatively affected by war even if it means taking military action against nations that do try to prosecute people.

The WA has in the past, done a great job at helping those in need, but as wars become larger, more violent, and more dangerous, the WA must be able fight back in retaliation. They must have the ability to intervene in wars that are being fought by WA nations and supply help to those who are unable to get it from elsewhere.

"Rights and Duties of WA States" is a necessary resolution that outlines the basic laws of the World Assembly, however it has become outdated with the modern state of the WA and must be updated to remain appropriate.


Reads more like a blogpost than a law, no operative clause, and it seems as if the author intends to amend GAR#2 instead of fully repealing it.

Blacklight is an isolationist, and notably xenophobic, interstellar corporatocracy.
Its government and society are made up of three massive conglomerates.
They maintain joint control over affairs normal governments would otherwise be concerned with.

Right To 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: Fracedonia

All nations must provide some form of education for all children from the ages of five to fifteen

We recommend them to provide education from the ages of three to seventeen

It must be affordable to all citizens and we recommend nations to provide it for free

Lessons must not be politically biased or used for any propaganda purposes

Seems rather duplicative.

The game automatically inserts one between the 'Proposed by:' line and the author's text, so we stopped requiring that the authors include one in their text.

DEFINIONS AND REGULASHIONS Counciler: an elected offical who severs 2 weeks on the 'Bill Regulation Commision'then is inelegible to sever again on the BRC unless a bill is passed with more than 75% support of the World Assembly .
Senoir Counciler : An counciler elected to mange the 'Bill Regulation Commision's Review Board' by the councilers when a spot is avalible or by a 75% support of the delagates of the regions.
Election Manger: a person who has severed on the BRC who manges every election after they finnished their term as a counciler, they will only sever in their region.
Cheif Election Manger: the boss of every Election manger in the World Assembly, they are selected by all of the Senior Counciler.

They will be the last group of people to look over a Proposal before it gets denied permentaly, a Proposal can be reentered latter by the same person
Bill Regulation Commision: the bill will first be researched and reviewed before it can become a voteable bill. If the bill gets passed it will be reviewed by the 'Bill Regulation Commision Review Board' then if passes again it can be voted on by every member of the World Assembly, if the bill does not pass it can be apealed to the Apeals Commision.

CONCLUSION: This bill will help make the World Assembly more democratic by making the bills be voted on by a more transparanet group of people.

Gonna just go with Game Mechanics violations and ignore the rest of the problems. Also ignoring the amazing spelling choices except for "transparanet", a gender-fluid networked association of psychics we obviously need to employ.

Making Everyone Dictators For Better Health
A resolution to modify universal standards of healthcare.

Category: Health

Area of Effect: Healthcare

Proposed by: Democracy Of Bala Mantre

In our world, there is a problem.
People dying a bunch of creative deaths.
I propose that we all become dictators because you only see two things usually on their death on citizens.
Old age is always the highest at most of the time in the 90's and heart disease takes the cake for the rest.
If We do this my fellow WA brother and sister nations we will have healthier citizens.
Think about this


Branding, Metagaming (I believe they are referring to the death statistics of the Nation as per NS the Game), wrong category, no operative clause, if it had one: Ideological ban

Making Junk Food Illegal

A resolution to modify universal standards of healthcare.

Category: Health

Area of Effect: Healthcare

Proposed by: Democracy Of Bala Mantre

Junk food is used to describe food and drinks low in nutrients (e.g. vitamins, minerals and fibre) and high in kilojoules, saturated fat, added sugar and/or added salt. They are also known as discretionary choices.

How often can I eat junk food?
Junk foods are not required as part of any diet.

If you are a healthy weight, try to eat junk foods occasionally and in small amounts.
If you are trying to lose weight, you will be more successful if you limit junk food.
Why is junk food bad?
Eating junk food on a regular basis can lead to an increased risk of obesity and chronic diseases like cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease and some cancers.
35% of adults’ daily energy intake (kilojoules) comes from junk food.
This means junk food is taking the place of other more nutritious foods in our diets.
Remember
Junk food describes food and drinks low in nutrients (e.g. vitamins, minerals and fibre) and high in kilojoules, saturated fat, added sugar and/or added salt.
Eating too much junk food is linked to serious health problems.
Junk foods are not a necessary part of any diet.
In the end we should BAN junk food too make healthier people

Formating, no operative clause ("we should ban" doesn't *do* anything)

Nevermind, someone deleted it. I'm not seeing a notice that it was withdrawn in the recent activity.

New Trade Deal

A resolution to reduce barriers to free trade and commerce.

Category: Free Trade
Strength: Significant
Proposed by: Orianto
Trade is an important deal for every nation . I am proposing a new Trade Deal that allows free trade with no tariffs. It is not required to join the new Trade Deal Plan. I am suggesting this because it can help your nation. This doesn't involve enemy nations. Trading with enemies like sending weapons and nuclear material will most likely start another World War. War is avoidable. Trade must happen with non-enemy nations. Trade involves Oil, goods, food, clean water, ammo, army support.

Epidemic Response Act

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

Category: International Security

Strength: Significant

Proposed by: Orianto

Nation and regional governments need new faster responses to stop epidemic's from spreading rapidly making people sick or killing them. Vaccinations will also less likely stop people getting sick.

No operative clause ("Governments need" doesn't *do* anything), Metagaming (mention of regions), Wrong Category ("International Security" deals with police and military matters, not epidemics. The way this reads, you want "Health", with the Area of Effect of "Healthcare".). Even if this did what you wanted, this is a duplication of GAR #412 and possibly GAR #53.
Jebslund is a nation of kerbals ruled by Emperor Jebediah Kerman. We reject tyranny, believing that rights should be protected, though we also believe said rights end where the rights of others begin.
Shockingly, we *do* use NS stats, with the exception of lifespan.
Singular sapient: Jebslunder
Plural Sapient: Jebslunden
Singular/Plural nonsapient: Kermanic
Note: When a verb can logically only be done by the sapient using/piloting/holding the object in question, then the appropriate demonym for the number of sapients is used.

Capitalism, Socialism, and Communism are ECONOMIC SYSTEMS. Stop conflating them with political systems.

ID: vietnam_2_1556565926

A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.

Category: Repeal

Resolution: GA#4

Proposed by: Vietnam 2

General Assembly Resolution #4 “Restrictions on Child Labor” (Category: Civil Rights; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.

This repeal is to set the age of a minor to 16 and under.


Legislating in a repeal, contradiction, not addressing the target

It almost sounds like they are only wanting to repeal part of the resolution?

Jams And Marmalades - Minimum Fruit Standards

A resolution to enact uniform standards that protect workers, consumers, and the general public.

Category: Regulation

Area of Effect: Consumer Protection

Proposed by: The Dubonni

Recognising that food is a key determinant of a person’s health and well-being,
Mindful that Public Health is advanced through good dietary, of which Fruit can be a vitally important,
Wishing for the advancement of Public Health amongst member states,
Noting that many consumers are misled by the supposed fruit contents of Jams and Marmalades, often to the detriment of their health,
Desiring to improve the quality of Jams and Marmalades, and to put right this confusion,
On the understanding that regulations may be helpful to improving public dietary,

The General Assembly:

1. Politely Requests and Requires Member States to regulate to ensure minimum fruit contents in Jams and Marmalades, which shall not fall below the International Standard Minimum Fruit Content of a Jam or Marmalade defined below:

International Standard Minimum Fruit Content of a Jam or Marmalade
(1) Apple and Blackberry – 40% (30/10)
(2) Apple and Blackcurrant – 40% (30/10)
(3) Apple and Damson – 40% (30/10)
(4) Apple and Plum – 40% (30/10)
(5) Apple and Raspberry and/or Logan berry – 40% (30/10)
(6) Apple and Strawberry – 40% (30/10)

(14) Damson – 38%
(15) Elderberry – 40%
(16) Gooseberry – 35%
(17) Greengage – 40%
(18) Loganberry – 38%
(19) Peach (and Mixtures of Peach with Citrus Fruit) – 40%
(20) Pineapple – 40%
(21) Plum – 40%
(22) Plum and Blackcurrant – 40% (30/10)
(23) Plum and Raspberry – 40% (30/10)
(24) Plum and Strawberry – 40% (30/10)
(25) Quince Jelly – 40%
(26) Raspberry – 38%
(27) Raspberry and Gooseberry – 40% (20/20)
(28) Raspberry and Loganberry – 25% (15/10)
(29) Raspberry and Redcurrant – 40% (20/20)
(30) Redcurrant – 35%
(31) Rhubarb – 45%
(32) Rhubarb and Blackberry – 40% (30/10)
(33) Rhubarb and Raspberry – 40% (30/10)
(34) Strawberry – 37½%
(35) Strawberry and Gooseberry – 35% (17½/17½)
(36) All other jams – 40%
(37) Marmalade – 20%
(38) Marmalade (Coarse Cut) – 30%

2. Further requests that Member States take actions to prohibit the domestic and international production, transportation, sale, delivery and consumption of Jams and Marmalades that fail to meet these standards;
3. Clarifies that Member State may enact higher standards for the Minimum contents of Fruit in Jams and Marmalades, beyond the International Minimum; and
4. Further clarifies that Member States may authorise, on an exceptional basis, the domestic production, transportation, sale, delivery and consumption of Jams and Marmalades that do not meet these minimum standards, where a government authority in that member state deems that to do so is justified for any historic, cultural, religious or other factor, so long as it is advertised that the Jam or Marmalade in question has failed to meet international standards.


A shame that “excessive micromanagement” is insufficient reason to make it illegal.

Shocking. Would you want fraudsters to sell us Elderberry jam at only 39% fruit content? For shame!

I would say it's AoE failure, though; there's nothing that actually protects consumers from a danger, there. It only says how much fruit/berry there must be, it doesn't say anything about what the rest of it is. I'd say that'd be much more important for consumer safety, than how much fruit/berry there is.

Also, not mentioning cloudberry should be an illegality all of its own. :P
