[Nathan]

I'd like to motion to begin debate.

please take note: Regional officials may only be paid by their Region, so Regional laws must be enacted to establish Regional Salaries.

[Tasneem]

What happens if people have more than one position? Do they get paid for them both?

Also, if the Grand Judge is to be paid, I think she should at least visit the forum or pretend like she cares about Natopia.

[Nathan]

i think people should be paid for two jobs if they perform those jobs well.

i agree. i talk to sherry every day and she rarely seems to care about natopia. keep in mind that she has to open a bank account to receive payment... do u think she cares enough to do that? ;D

[Tasneem]

I don't think that will happen, but if it does, we'll have to instate some rules for people to get paid.

Rule #1: Checking the forum at least once a week, if possible

Rule #2: Senators must vote on 3/4 of the bills in order to be paid

Rule #3: You have to be patriotic if you want to be paid. That means being proud of Natopia.

So... something like that. If I think of anything else, I'll post it.

[Nathan]

that sounds fair. ill accept those as friendly amendments to my bill.

[sherry]

I motion to start voting.

[Tasneem]

No, I'm still thinking of ammendments so people don't get paid for nothing like a certain someone...

[Tasneem]

Rule #4 - If the chancellor thinks that someone's pay should be suspended, the Senate should vote to approve that motion
Clause #1 - The person in question can not vote or bribe others to vote for them

Rule #5 - These rules are subject to change with Senate approval

[Nathan]

ill accept those in my bill. new draft:
