Thanks to Citizen Sponsor Muaddib for providing text here. This legislation, versions of which have already been enacted in other regions, bans false advertising in the form of hiding taxes until one arrives at a register and may feel pressure to proceed with the transaction. It will require businesses to list prices with all taxes included, so that consumer choice, not business profit, is the outcome.

I am curious at what your rationale for opposing what most would consider common sense legislation.

Also as an aside I'd like to point out this was my first bill in Atlasia.


Even 'Herr Lebensraum' had the common sense to steal adopt my policy. Normally I don't like poking my nose in other regions affairs. In this case it's I believe all y'all can agree that its time Lincoln caught up to the other regions. I look forward to seeing our friends in Lincoln, join both Fremont, and the great region of the South that is, Dixie, have clear pricing for items.
I'm glad to see Lincoln join the rest of Atlasia.
