Fix My Bill and Amend the August Taxation Amendment
The people of Democracy Craft, through their elected Representatives in the Congress and the force of law ordained to that Congress by the people through the constitution, do hereby enact the following provisions into law:
1 - Short Title and Enactment (1) This Act may be cited as the “Amendment to the August Taxation Amendment ”. (2) This Act shall be enacted immediately upon its signage. (3) This Act was authored by Speaker of the House 218218Consumer. (4) This Act has been co-sponsored by Representative xlayzur.
2 - Reason (1) I pasted in the wrong bill format and accidentally put a clause limiting the implementation of the August Taxation Amendment. My mistake should not inhibit our Congress's commitment to socioeconomic equality and plot accessibility on this server, and as a result, it is imperative that we fix it as soon as possible. (2) This bill was rejected a few days ago, not because a majority disapproved of it, but because it failed to meet caretaker requirements.
3 - Terms The implementation of the August Taxation Amendment shall no longer be dependent on the passage of the Corporate Balance Regulation Act.
1 - Short Title and Enactment (1) This Act may be cited as the “Fair Taxes Act”. (2) This Act shall be enacted immediately upon signage. (3) This Act was authored by Representative xlayzur with approval from President 218218Consumer and DEC Secretary Thritystone. (4) This Act was co-sponsored by Senator tekkovvs.
2 - Reasons (1) Property and balance tax rates were recently modified by staff to ensure compatibility between tax codes and plugin limitations. Congress must readjust these rates to preserve progressive taxation, reduce middle-class property taxes, disincentivize plot hoarding by the wealthy, and improve government revenue.
3 - Tax Cut
The Taxation Act shall be amended as follows:
(1) Personal balances between $0.00 and $2,499.99 (inclusive) shall be taxed at a rate of 0%1% weekly.

The reason for me to nay this bill is basically because I think the bracket between $0.00 and $2499.99 shouldn't get taxed. They already have enough struggle with their balance to have to pay taxes. For the rest, I see as a good thing to raise taxes on the riches more than on the poor and working class.

2 - Reasons (1) Currently many players stash their wealth away in corporate balances to avoid taxation indefinitely. (2) With Corporate Taxes, we will be able to decrease the regular Personal Balance Tax across the board, which is a positive for the working class.
