I am not in the U.N. anymore, but I still feel that there is a great deal of importance to this issue. It needs your support. It could help third-world countries grow and flourish, develop strong international relations and build there country into stability.

I completely am behind this issue.

It will lessen the gap between the rich and poor.

Help our nations grow to understand each others cultures.


I think this resolution would help our world economically and relationship wise between seas.

There are a lot of things that could be deregulated. We could deregulate the coffee industry, for example.

I confess that I am somewhat at a loss. Regulation is not by definition a bad thing. Environmental regulation, for example, is a valuable tool. Regulation that offers safeguards against the exploitation of workers is, I submit, a good thing.

I recommend that any proposal that emerges from this discussion be carefully focussed in order that vital, hard-fought for regulations are not swept aside in a cavalier drive for less 'red tape'.

Of course you are, despite the fact that there is actually no defined issue, nor a UN proposal to back.

I am not in fact, Lundigrad's puppet.

We had a discussion about the proposal a couple of days ago.


Don't assume that a proposal is being unfairly advertised because you don't like it.

Economically, it would help both sides of the international trade.

My mod tools tell me otherwise.

The only thing I've seen that looks remotely proposal-ish is the thread title. Where's the rest of it?

It appears the proposal in question is in fact already submitted and awaiting its due lack of approvals. Seeing as how this is neither my proposal nor one I'd particularly like anyone to approve, I'll leave it to the author to decide to post a link to their proposal as they should have done in the first place.

Since the proposer (Lundigrad) isn't in the UN any longer, I'm surprised that the proposal hasn't been auto-deleted. As proposals go, it's a list of aspirations with no operative clauses at all, so deserves deletion on those grounds alone.

Since that doesn't happen, I'm not surprised in the slightest. Heck I think I remember a situtation where a nation submitted a proposal, then was deleted for rulebreaking and the proposal stuck around because it was legal.

Don't go making broad statements without evidence. Just HOW would international deregulation help the rich and poor? How would it help stabilise the trade balances? I can understand being a cheerleader, but do tell me why this idea will be anything other than the utter disaster industry deregulation has been as an idea so far?

The neoclassical, supply side theory of economics has been nothing but a disaster for those who accept that. Looks like Friedman was wrong.
