There’s a lot to address in this thread, but first and foremost, I didn’t proclaim myself the head of anything, I was endorsed in my efforts by the author of the bill. So, how about you do some actual research before stealing valuable oxygen with your nonsense.
OOC: Your signature says "1st Chair of the International Securities and Exchange Commission (a W.A organization)". That's a self proclamation of being the head of something if I ever saw it. Regardless of what someone else said sometime once in some other forum, this does not and cannot apply in the GA. All committees are staffed ICly by incorruptible GA gnomes. Nothing you roleplay in your version of the committee will have any impact on anyone who does not also participate in your roleplay in that other forum.
I suggest that if you wish to be taken seriously here, you lose both the attitude and the signature.
Also, I'll take IA's word on economic and financial matters all day long over what some fella once wrote on the internet.
If I wish to be taken seriously where? In an online game by a group of strangers? Don’t let your tag as a Member of the Secretariat go to your head.
And some fella? More like a grouping of financial experts who know more about Securities than any individual who could possibly comment on this thread. Whether or not you take stock in the fact is not my concern; as the sky is blue and gravity is real, the entertainment of interpretations to the contrary is a charity I do not wish to endow.
Also, as I said previously, until I receive word otherwise from a source of larger repute than the Parishioners of the Church of the Self Righteous that have decided to grace this thread, I will continue to act in the capacity stated; the above mentioned statement on alternative argumentation, here also applying.
Oh, and as the O.P of this thread, I declare it closed. Commentary of any kind after this post is disallowed.
Thank you for your input.
