I note that bullet points 1(5-7) and 2(4-6) contain no content, when those bullet points are not actually present in the submitted proposal. Phantom code? :P Ineligible to vote but will try to answer as many concerns as possible, if any.

And to quote from myself - again - the words "sapient life" do not need definition because they do not appear in this proposal outside of its title.

The preamble was my own work; Gorundu did, however, help out a great deal with the wording of the final clause (and I know that there were many concerns about my original wording of that clause). For this, I am extremely grateful.

As usual, I am available to answer questions about this proposal. I think that was IA's original intent with DPB before he included the exception in Article 1 and cited Cretox as a co-author... but don't quote me on that one, LOL Thank you for reading my mind :P

You might be interested to hear that Kindjal did not make a single post on the forums until midway through the debate on their Commendation (see above link by myself), which was eventually to become SC#298. The rankings associated with NB's stats themselves, and their significance in terms of...

I mean... I support capitalism in the real world and I acknowledge that high levels of economic development would normally be Commendable, but not in this case when we have huge levels of obesity, crime, wealth inequality, almost nothing in the way of a social security net, and so on :P

Answering issues consistently for almost seventeen years, may I add? Some NSers weren't even born when Northern Borland was created and started answering issues at the beginning of 2004! Given that some people with otherwise impressive stats built over several years have seen them effectively...

SC#73 clearly attributes the mass-scale forum destruction of several high-profile raider regions to "the Red Liberty Alliance, headed by soldiers of Allied States of EuroIslanders." It is wrong to assert that such destruction was somebody else's problem, even if one takes a literal reading of...

The assertation that WA member states - which are generally left-leaning and (if, as a handful claim, the old divide still exists today) more IntFeddy - would warm more to Article 1 of Ending School Segregation (which forbids homeschooling except where "a child is physically unfit to attend a...

This proposal does not grant anybody the right to unilaterally amend any school's curriculum. Article a's qualification - read in conjunction with Article a(ii), GA#80, GA#369, ad nauseam - is clear that homeschooled children must receive the same basic curriculum as children in a normal school...

This isn't a repeal :P

RE "ECHR doesn't require homeschooling," nor does it forbid it. Many ECHR signatories do allow parents to homeschool their children; although negotiations surrounding the EU's ratification of the Convention are highly protracted, nor by any means does the EU forbid such either. Sure, I support...

Pigeonstan is, incredibly, correct here. The preamble is preferably read in conjunction with Homeschooling Regulations by Araraukar and Ending School Segregation by Imperium Anglorum.

As the author, I am not voting; as somebody who is neither resident in TNP nor enlisted in its Army, I cannot vote anyway. I would, however, like to answer a few points made by those who have offered reasoning for their opposition: The author of this proposal is a British citizen who has never...

Why are you confused? Although I cannot vote (being neither a World Assembly member in TNP nor holding any rank in its Army) and, since I am the author, it would not be right for me to formally vote in any case, I can happily present to you the following telegram I sent to Esperantist Mars, a WA...

I am the author of this proposal (not voting, but vote invalid nonetheless). This has unfortunately failed to reach quorum by some distance and I will be reproposing it in the near future... but not immediately, lol. In response to what simone_republic said above, if the SC really did not...

I removed this because - in light of McMasterdonia's deapproval telegram, which I have not had the pleasure of reading but which at least one WA Delegate (Esperantist Mars of the region Mars Planet) has told me exists, and general TNP support/stompability - I did not believe that this venture...

sorry for the double-post - I'd appreciate it if this post were to be removed!

I am the co-author of this proposal (which is properly capitalised "Rights of the employed" with a lower-case "e"). I note that many people have simply replied "For" or (for the most part) "Against" without explaining why; however, I offer the following in response to some concerns raised: As I...
