I recently proposed a freedom to work act. This act would not only counter the effect of the recent 40 hour work week, but would also elliminate minimum wage laws. The idea is that people should be free to work and hire people on their own mutually agreeable terms, not the governments. If you agree with this please endorse my proposal. The name again is FREEDOM TO WORK resolution. It currently is on page 16 of the proposals.

Helps if you post a copy of it too.

Freedom to Work

A resolution to reduce barriers to free trade and commerce.

Category: Free Trade Strength: Significant Proposed by: The Okanogan
Description: Since people should be free to enter into agreements with each other as they see fit so long as they do not harm others, All limits on employment contracts minimum wage laws and 40 hour work weeks shall be elliminated.

Well, leaving aside the other clauses... you can't repeal the 40-hour work week (or indeed any other resolution). So if I were you I'd politely ask a mod to remove this before it gets deleted.

Thanks, I'll pass this on to a Game Mod to be deleted for violating the no repealing rule. :D
