Welfare Reform (Placeholder) Act

1. The existing welfare system in Atlasia is a disorganised and needlessly cruel shambles that penalises the genuinely poor and needy for reasons of penny-pinching and pseudo-Victorian faux-moralism.

2. The previous (before the mid 1990's) welfare system, however, was an expensive farce with many counterproductive features (not least its contribution to the destruction of the black family). It was not an effective welfare system, was easily (and far too often) abused and its main achievement was to foster an enourmous backlash, producing the joke of a system that we have at present.

3. Recent Atlasian policy has entrenched this folly. The Modified Welfare Reform Act and the Welfare Reform Act are both hereby repealed.

4. A successful welfare system must be at least partially universalist (in part to avoid an ugly backlash, in part because universalist schemes tend to be more effective anyway) but should not greatly reward behavior that is detrimental to society. Fundamentally, it should be about liberating as many people from poverty as possible, while also providing a basic level of dignity to all members of society.

5. Because I don't have everything I need to write this properly at the moment (but will have in a week or so) I'm introducing this as placeholder bill, intended to be heavily modified when it reaches the Senate Floor.

You mean this Senate session? Obviously nothing as it's only just started. If you mean in general, then rather a lot, including several acts that you're trying to repeal as part of your spamming session.

I have decided to kill the Free Palestine Bill. I have not done so because it is frivolous (rabid anti-semitism is a little too serious to legitimately described as frivolous) but because it is functionally impractical and comically so. It is bad legislation, full stop.

The Senator who introduced it has 72 hours to complain in an acceptable manner.

You said argue, I presented an argument and you completely ignored it because I didn't include British "humour"

I didn't ignore it. I just didn't reply to it.
