All Delegates should vote for Resolution to make life fair. It is on page 23. This is the text of the Resolution.

Mom always said, "Life's not fair."
I propose that we make a Resolution so that life will always be fair. With fair lives people will be able to live happier and more productive (and my bed time might even be later so I can play on Nation States longer). Back to what I was saying, let's make life fair!

Why am I dignifying this with a reply? Anyway, listen to your mom... Life is never fair... All attempts to make it so have failed... Democracy, Communism, ect... They all fail and become corrupt systems with hopeless beuracracy that make nothing fair..

Therefore I have one question. How do you propose to make life fair?

Unfortunately, your mother is right. In so many societies are lives unbalanced, since most governments are ever so greedy. But, also at the same time you have a point. Life can be changed if everyone listens, but most people deny their abilities. Therefore I support your attempt to make life fair, but you won't succeed.

Fair how? Equal opportunity? Equal rights? Total equality of property and everything? Or are you saying you want everybody to follow your ideas of what is just (fairness in the sense of justice is totally subjective)?

This is idiotic. Life will never be fair, that is its essence.

Attempting to make it fair will result in great expense and even greater tediousness.

There is absolutely no way to force life into being fair. To do so would be unfair in and of itself.

I'm also quite bemused that, while petitioning that life be fair, did not propose any ways to make it fair.

I urge boycott of this proposal.
