The Imperial Dominion of the South's Legislature

[Deldem]

Sounds good to me.

[Deldem]

Aye.

[Deldem]

Why don't we have a Jefferson Davis Day too!

[Deldem]

Why don't we have a Jefferson Davis Day too!

     Well the point of this is to commemorate the banning (I think that was the day of his banning) of one of the greatest nuisances to have ever plagued Atlasia. It's not like this is an "OMG federalism" bill.

This is entirely celebrating Hamilton's banning

Let's go for it then, it's cool with me.

[Deldem]

Aye.

[Deldem]

Sorry, I've been pretty busy the last few weeks. I'm ready to vote though.

[Deldem]

     it just occurred to me that we have not allocated an amount to budget the contract, or specified where that amount would come from.

We would need these contractors to give us an estimate, at least in real life.  And don't we have a budget surplus?

     Fair enough. If we defined an upper limit on what was to be allotted to it, they'd try to get us as close to that limit as possible.

     Last we heard, but that was a while ago. It might have changed since then.

We might've used up the surplus on the education bill.

[Deldem]

     As I alluded to above, I think an upper-limit would be counterproductive. Basically, what I am thinking is that whoever runs the place after it's completed gets 80% of ticket sales while the contractor gets 20%. However, we take 10%, which comes out of the contractor's 20%, until we have covered the cost of funding the contract. As such, there is no incentive for the contractor to try to gouge us, since whatever they get paid for the job itself is essentially an advance on the percentage of ticket sales they get after the job is done.

I like it.

[Deldem]

If there's no objections I'm prepared to vote.

[Deldem]

Aye

[Deldem]

I know I'm a bit late to the party here, but I'll vote for ratification.

[Deldem]

I like the Federal Election Agent Act.

[Deldem]

Aye.

I apologize for not being able to look into this earlier, I've been extremely busy recently due to midterms and such.

[Deldem]

Let the record state I'm in favor of abortion in the first two trimesters.

[Deldem]

I think we're pretty good, I'm ready to vote.

[Deldem]

I'm inclined to vote for the law, but if it's redundant I don't really see a need for it on the regional level.

Also, though this is unrelated, this will be my last term in the legislature, at least for the foreseeable future. Real life is far too demanding at this point for me to participate in Atlasia (as much fun as it is). Hopefully whoever replaces me will be able to devote more time than I can to the Southeast.
