Midwest Ratification Voting Booth

There are ten propositions up for vote.

Remember to remain seated until the booth has come to a complete and final stop.



The Midwest Non-Player Department Creation Act Whereas having specific non-player departments allows executive orders and proposals to be more specific, the following non-player departments, under the authority of the Midwest Governor are created:
  • State
  • Budget and Commerce
  • Education
  • Justice and Public Safety
  • Health and Human Services
  • Environment and Public Land
  • Transportation
  • Monuments, Yurts, and other stuff
They will be charged with executing and enforcing laws specific to elections, regional budget and the economy, education, justice and public safety, public health and human services, the health of the environment and public land, transportation, and everything else (particularly loony stuff), respectively.



Midwest Tax Code
A tax of 6% of all Midwestern citizen's income/capital gains shall be levied at the same time as the federal government income tax. A tax of 8% of income derived from the Midwest by businesses shall be levied by the Midwest government at the same time as federal income taxes are levied. 



We Should Own Utah
We, the citizens of the Midwest, believe that, for cultural and economic reasons, the state of Utah should be part of the Midwest. A vote among the citizens of the state shall decide whether they want to remain or not, or, if they have no citizens, all the states touching said state in the region it resides shall decide. Should any decide to join the Midwest, the Midwest Governor shall have the authority to harass the Senate to move the state to the Midwest.



We Should Own Idaho
We, the citizens of the Midwest, believe that, for cultural and economic reasons, the state of Idaho should be part of the Midwest. A vote among the citizens of the state shall decide whether they want to remain or not, or, if they have no citizens, all the states touching said state in the region it resides shall decide. Should any decide to join the Midwest, the Midwest Governor shall have the authority to harass the Senate to move the state to the Midwest.



We Should Own Texas
We, the citizens of the Midwest, believe that, for cultural and economic reasons, the state of Texas should be part of the Midwest. A vote among the citizens of the state shall decide whether they want to remain or not, or, if they have no citizens, all the states touching said state in the region it resides shall decide. Should any decide to join the Midwest, the Midwest Governor shall have the authority to harass the Senate to move the state to the Midwest.



We Should Own New Mexico
We, the citizens of the Midwest, believe that, for cultural and economic reasons, the state of New Mexico should be part of the Midwest. A vote among the citizens of the state shall decide whether they want to remain or not, or, if they have no citizens, all the states touching said state in the region it resides shall decide. Should any decide to join the Midwest, the Midwest Governor shall have the authority to harass the Senate to move the state to the Midwest.



We Should Own Arkansas
We, the citizens of the Midwest, believe that, for cultural and economic reasons, the state of Arkansas should be part of the Midwest. A vote among the citizens of the state shall decide whether they want to remain or not, or, if they have no citizens, all the states touching said state in the region it resides shall decide. Should any decide to join the Midwest, the Midwest Governor shall have the authority to harass the Senate to move the state to the Midwest.



We Should Own Missouri
We, the citizens of the Midwest, believe that, for cultural and economic reasons, the state of Missouri should be part of the Midwest. A vote among the citizens of the state shall decide whether they want to remain or not, or, if they have no citizens, all the states touching said state in the region it resides shall decide. Should any decide to join the Midwest, the Midwest Governor shall have the authority to harass the Senate to move the state to the Midwest.



High School Physical Education Act
We in the Midwest recognize that nutrition and physical exercise are important to one's health and therefore require all public Midwestern high schools to do the following:

1. Require all high school students take a semester long class on health, with an emphasis on nutrition, physical activity, and sexual health.
2. Require all schools offer physical education classes in addition to the above health class.
3. Public school districts in the Midwest may impose stricter standards if they so wish.
