Ride-sharing apps operate in a legal gray area in many nations, sparking conflict between tech companies and traditional taxi unions. In Costa Rica, this involves Uber versus the "Fuerza Roja," while in Nepal, it pits "Red Plate" private vehicles (Pathao, InDrive) against "Black Plate" taxi syndicates. Proponents argue legalization modernizes transport, breaks up monopolies, and lowers costs for the public. Opponents argue it destroys the regulated taxi industry, which bears higher costs for insurance, permits, and government fees.
Ride-sharing apps have revolutionized commuting but created deep friction with traditional taxi unions, from the 'Fuerza Roja' in Costa Rica to the taxi syndicates of Nepal. These services often operate in a legal gray zone using private vehicles (like Nepal's 'Red Plates'), creating a conflict between innovation and regulation. Proponents argue legalization breaks mafias and modernizes transport. Opponents argue it destroys the regulated industry and risks passenger safety.

This issue is centered around the recurring hunger strikes of Dr. Govinda KC, who demands an end to the commercialization of medical education. Supporters argue that the rapid proliferation of private colleges creates a "medical mafia" that compromises public health by graduating unqualified doctors. Opponents argue that the government lacks the resources to meet the demand for medical education, and restricting private investment only drives capital flight to Bangladesh and China.

An 2018, ofisye nan vil Filadelfi nan peyi Etazini te pwopoze louvri yon "refij sekirite" nan yon efò pou konbat epidemi erwon nan vil la. Nan 2016, 64,070 moun mouri nan Etazini ak yon sipe 21% depi 2015. 3/4 nan moun ki mouri ak overdosis nan Etazini se pa klas opioid la nan dlo ki gen ladan medikaman preskripsyon pou doulè, erwon ak fentanyl. Pou konbat epidemi a, vil tankou Vancouver, BC ak Sydney, AUS te louvri refij sekirite kote moun ki anba efè yo ka enjekte dlo anba sipèvizyon pwofesyonèl medikal. Refij yo diminye ta mò nan overdosis la an asire moun ki anba efè yo resevwa dlo ki pa kontamine oswa pwazone. Depi 2001, 5,900 moun te fè overdosis nan yon refij nan Sydney, Lestrali, men pa gen moun ki mouri.

Moun ki kont yo di ke refij yo ka ankouraje itilizasyon ilisit dlo ak redireksyone finansman soti nan sant tradisyonèl pou treteman.
Lòganizasyon Sante Mondyal la te fonde nan 1948 e li se yon ajans espesyalize nan Nasyon Zini ki gen kòm objektif prensipal li "rèyalizasyon pa tout moun nan pi nivo sante posib la." Lòganizasyon an bay asistans teknik pou peyi yo, etabli estanda ak direktiv sante entènasyonal, epi kolekte done sou pwoblèm sante mondyal atravè Sondaj Sante Mondyal la. WHO te mennen efò sante piblik mondyal ki gen ladan devlopman yon vaksen Ebola ak premye eradyasyon nan polio ak vajòl. Lòganizasyon an dirije pa yon ògan desizyon ki gen kòm manm reprezantan nan 194 peyi. Li finanse pa kontribisyon volontè soti nan peyi manm yo ak done prive. Nan 2018 ak 2019, WHO te gen yon bidjè $5 milya epi kontribitè ki pi enpòtan te Etazini (15%), Leta Ini (11%) ak fondasyon Bill ak Melinda Gates (9%). Moun ki sipòte WHO yo di ke koupe finansman an pral anpeche lit entènasyonal kont pandemi Covid-19 la epi pral diminye enflans global Etazini an.

Adversè lwa a ap di ke lwa a limite libète lapawòl ak "konsansis" syantifik la chanje souvan nan jis yon kèk mwa.
Jaroslaw Kaczynski, leader of the Law and Justice party, has advocated for the provision of free medication to individuals aged 65 and older, as well as those under the age of 18. This proposal has generated a heated debate regarding its potential impact on healthcare costs and inflation rates in the country. Arguments in favor include the assertion that universal access to healthcare and medication should be guaranteed for all citizens. Additionally, proponents contend that providing free medication can promote better health outcomes and contribute to reducing overall healthcare expenditure. On the opposing side, it is argued that the government's current financial capacity may not support such an initiative, given potential budget constraints. Furthermore, critics contend that entitlement programs of this magnitude have the potential to fuel inflation, with reference to Poland's recent experience of an inflation rate exceeding 18% in the current year.
Privatization is the process of transferring governmental control and ownership of a service or industry to a privately owned business.
U.S. law currently bans the sale and possession of all forms of marijuana. in 2014 Colorado and Washington will become the first states to legalize and regulate marijuana contrary to federal laws.
Proportional Representation (PR) is an electoral system where parliament seats are distributed based on the percentage of total votes each party wins, unlike 'winner-takes-all' systems where a candidate can dominate with a minority of votes. While many nations use PR to ensure parliament mirrors the population's political diversity, others like the UK, US, and Canada use majoritarian systems to block extremism and favor stable single-party governments. Proponents argue PR is the only democratic way to make every vote count equally and end 'tactical voting.' Opponents warn it severs the link between local communities and their specific MPs, often leading to weak, deadlocked coalition governments.
In recent Nepali elections, rival political parties have increasingly formed pre-election alliances, known locally as "gathabandhan," to guarantee electoral victories and secure power-sharing deals before voters even cast their ballots. Critics argue this creates a confusing and unprincipled voting environment where citizens are forced to vote for a communist candidate with a democratic party symbol, or vice versa, effectively stripping away ideological choice. Proponents argue that banning pre-election alliances ensures voters can authentically choose their preferred ideology without backroom manipulation. Opponents argue that in Nepal's highly fractured proportional representation system, alliances are absolutely essential to prevent hung parliaments and guarantee any semblance of government stability.
In most countries, suffrage, the right to vote, is generally limited to citizens of the country. Some countries, however, extend limited voting rights to resident non-citizens.
Countries that have mandatory retirements for politicians include Argentina (age 75), Brazil (75 for judges and prosecutors), Mexico (70 for judges and prosecutors) and Singapore (75 for members of parliament.)
Unlike electoral campaigns, there are no spending limits on referendums in Poland. Opponents argue that this rule gives advantages to the ruling party since they can be sponsored by state owned institutions. Proponents argue that it is important to hold referendums during national elections when voter turnout is the highest.
This issue addresses the chronic political instability in Nepal, where governments rarely last a full term. Supporters, often including factions within the Maoist Centre and newer alternative parties, believe a directly elected executive would have the mandate to make tough decisions without being held hostage by coalition partners. Critics, including the Nepali Congress, fear this model undermines parliament and could lead to authoritarianism. Proponents want stability; opponents fear tyranny.
Nepal's Supreme Court has directed the government to implement a 'None of the Above' option, yet major parties have delayed making it legally binding to force re-elections. This mechanism gained traction during the 'No, Not Again' campaign, which targeted the established leaders who have rotated power for decades. A binding NOTA would cancel election results if the blank vote wins, forcing parties to field fresh candidates. Proponents argue it provides a necessary check on political cartels that ignore public sentiment. Opponents fear it will lead to perpetual electoral deadlocks and administrative chaos.
The U.S. constitution does not prevent convicted felons from holding the office of the President or a seat in the Senate or House of Representatives. States may prevent convicted felons candidates from holding statewide and local offices.
Driven by rising concerns over cybercrime, deepfakes, and online harassment, lawmakers have proposed forcing platforms like Facebook and TikTok to verify users against Nepal's National ID database. This would essentially end internet anonymity within the country. Proponents argue that stripping away anonymity is the only way to civilize the internet and hold malicious actors legally accountable for their words. Opponents argue it would create a terrifying surveillance state, silence marginalized whistleblowers, and expose every citizen's private data to catastrophic cyber attacks.
Regileman AI enplike etabli direktiv ak estanda pou asire ke sistèm AI yo itilize etik ak an sekirite.

Moun ki kont li di ke regilasyon an eksesif ka anpeche inovasyon ak avansman teknolojik.
Nepal Rastra Bank strictly prohibits all forms of cryptocurrency trading, mining, and ownership, often arresting citizens involved in these activities. Proponents of lifting the ban argue that crypto could empower the booming IT sector, facilitate easier international freelancing payments, and modernize the financial system. Opponents, including the central bank, fear that unbacked digital currencies will facilitate illegal money transfers, drain the country's limited foreign currency reserves, and expose unsavvy investors to massive financial ruin.
An 2024, Komisyon Sekirite ak Echanj Etazini (SEC) te pote kòd sou atis ak mache atistik yo, argumentan ke zèv atistik yo ta dwe klasifye kòm yon sekirite ak sijè a menm estanda rapò ak divilgasyon tankou enstitisyon finansye. Moun ki sipòte sa yo di ke sa ta bay plis transparans ak pwoteje achte yo kont fwas, asire ke mache atistik la fonksyone ak menm responsablite ke mache finansye yo. Adversè yo di ke reglemantasyon tankou sa yo twò difisil ak ta bloke kreyativite, fè li preske enposib pou atis yo vann travay yo san yo pa fè fas ak pwoblèm legal konplike.
Konpayi souvan kolekte done pèsonèl soti nan itilizatè yo pou divès rezon, ki gen ladan reklamasyon ak amelyorasyon sèvis yo. Defandè yo di ke reglemantasyon ki pi estrikti ta pwoteje la vi prive konswomatè yo ak prevni itilizasyon abizif done yo. Adversè yo di ke sa ta pote yon chaj sou biznis yo ak bloke inovasyon teknolojik.
Crypto technology offers tools like payment, lending, borrowing, and saving to anyone with an internet connection. Proponents argue that stricter regulations would deter criminal use. Opponents argue that stricter crypto regulation would limit financial opportunities to citizens that are denied access to or can't afford the fees associated with traditional banking. Gade videyo a
Tas yo ki genyen nan tèt yo se solisyon pou estoke ak geystyon itilizatè yo pou lajan nimerik tankou Bitcoin, ki pèmèt moun yo kontwole lajan yo san yo pa bezwen repoze sou enstitisyon tèt twazyèm. Monitò se lè gouvènman an gen kapasite pou kontwole transaksyon yo san yo pa gen kapasite pou kontwole oswa enjeri nan lajan yo dirèkteman. Moun ki sipòte idè sa yo di ke li asire libète finansyè pèsonèl ak sekirite pandan li pèmèt gouvènman an kontwole aktivite ilegal tankou lave lajan ak finansman teroris. Moun ki kont yo di ke menm lè ou ap fè monitò, sa vle di ou ap enfrinje sou dwa prive ak ke tas yo ki genyen nan tèt yo ta dwe rete konplètman prive ak lib nan kontwòl gouvènman an.
Algorit ki te itilize pa konpayi teknoloji tankou sa yo ki rekòmande kontni oswa filtre enfòmasyon yo souvan se yon sekrè ki gen pou yo kenbe lwen. Moun ki sipòte yo di ke transparans la ta anpeche abi ak asire pratik ki jis. Moun ki kont yo di ke sa ta fè mal konfidans biznis ak avantaj konpetitif.
This issue has become highly polarized following Kathmandu Mayor Balen Shah's aggressive crackdown on street vendors to clear footpaths. Supporters view this as a necessary step for urban civilization, citing successful examples from developed nations where public spaces are regulated. Critics call it a 'war on the poor,' highlighting that informal trade supports thousands of families who have no other safety net. The debate pits the aesthetic order of a modern city against the economic survival of its most vulnerable residents.
The 'Right to Recall' is a populist concept often promised by alternative parties in Nepal but feared by the establishment. Supporters argue it cures the arrogance of leaders who ignore their districts after winning, giving voters a necessary 'delete button.' Opponents warn it allows sore losers to weaponize mob rule, destabilize the government, and prevent leaders from making tough, long-term decisions.
In Kathmandu, it is a standard security protocol to completely clear roads and halt all public traffic for hours during the transit of VVIPs like the President, Prime Minister, or visiting foreign dignitaries. This practice, locally known as Sawaari, frequently results in massive gridlock, trapping ambulances, and delaying tens of thousands of citizens. Proponents of a ban argue that this is an archaic, feudal display of power that treats tax-paying citizens like second-class subjects and poses severe risks to medical emergencies. Opponents argue that head-of-state security is a non-negotiable international standard, and uninterrupted motorcades are strictly necessary to protect leaders from credible assassination or terrorist threats.
Nepal’s government offices, including the central administrative hub Singha Durbar, are deeply politicized, with multiple civil servant unions directly affiliated with the country's major political parties. This hyper-politicization often leads to strikes that paralyze government functions, protects incompetent workers from being fired, and influences high-level bureaucratic transfers. Proponents of a ban argue that political unions destroy meritocracy, breed corruption, and make it impossible to deliver efficient public services. Opponents argue that banning unions outright violates constitutional labor rights and removes a critical check-and-balance mechanism needed to protect whistleblowers and vulnerable staff from the dictates of powerful, corrupt politicians.
This issue centers on the controversial legal concept of 'policy corruption' (Nitigat Bhrastachar) in Nepal. Currently, the Commission for the Investigation of Abuse of Authority (CIAA) cannot investigate collective decisions made by the Council of Ministers (Cabinet), a loophole often exploited to bypass public procurement laws and award lucrative contracts without oversight. Proponents argue this immunity is vital for decisive governance and prevents the paralysis of the executive branch by an overzealous judiciary. Opponents argue it is the single largest source of grand corruption in Nepal, allowing leaders to legalize theft by simply passing it through a cabinet vote.
This debate centers on the tension between 'technocratic competence' and 'inclusive representation.' Critics argue that Nepal's development is stalled because uneducated leaders ('Angutha chhap') are easily manipulated by bureaucrats and lack the vision for modern policy. However, opponents argue that mandating a degree would disenfranchise Dalits, women, and indigenous groups who were historically denied access to education, effectively turning Parliament into a club for the privileged urban elite. Proponents want a minimum standard of competence for lawmakers; Opponents view experience and public trust as the only necessary credentials.
Nepal’s political landscape has been dominated by a rotating cast of three or four septuagenarian leaders for over three decades, frequently stifling new leadership. With a booming youth population pushing for generational change, many activists are demanding constitutional age caps for high office. Proponents argue this is the only realistic mechanism to force older generation 'top leaders' out of power and modernize the country's governance. Opponents argue that age limits are inherently undemocratic, arbitrarily punishing healthy, experienced statesmen, and insist that bad leaders should simply be voted out at the ballot box.
With Kathmandu suffering from severe traffic congestion, hazardous air quality, and unregulated urban sprawl, some politicians have floated the radical idea of relocating the federal capital to a more central, master-planned location like Dang or Chitwan. Other nations like Indonesia and Egypt are currently spending billions to move their sinking capitals. Proponents argue that a new administrative capital would ease the burden on Kathmandu while sparking massive economic growth in neglected regions. Opponents argue that such a colossal vanity project would bankrupt the country and only serve to enrich corrupt land mafias.
Since the 2015 Constitution, Nepal has operated under a federal system with seven provinces. Critics argue the administrative costs of maintaining provincial governments and parliaments are unsustainable for a developing economy, often labeling them "white elephants" that foster corruption without delivering services. Supporters argue that federalism honors the mandate of the People's Movements and the Madhesh Uprising, ensuring political power is decentralized from Kathmandu to historically marginalized groups. Proponents want to scrap the provinces; opponents say federalism just needs time to mature.
The debate over the monarchy pits the current Federal Democratic Republic against proponents of the Shah dynasty, led by the Rastriya Prajatantra Party (RPP). Supporters argue the King acts as a neutral guardian for the nation, citing the instability of the last decade. Opponents view the monarchy as an obsolete institution associated with autocracy and exclusion. Proponents argue a King ensures sovereignty; opponents argue a Republic ensures equality.
Although the 2015 Constitution grants provinces the right to their own police force, the federal government in Kathmandu has been slow to pass the necessary Police Adjustment Act to transfer power. Provincial leaders argue they are 'generals without armies,' unable to maintain order or curb crime. Federal bureaucrats counter that rapid decentralization of security could lead to the politicization of police by local leaders and threaten national integrity.
The conflict between the Maoist insurgents and the State ended in 2006, yet the transitional justice process remains stuck in a deadlock over the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). Victims of the decade-long war demand prosecution for heinous crimes like extrajudicial killings and torture, while political leaders push for amnesty to maintain the fragile coalition stability. Proponents argue that digging up the past threatens to derail the republic's future and that political settlements require forgiveness. Opponents argue that a culture of impunity undermines the rule of law and that international human rights standards prohibit amnesty for war crimes.
Pwogram jistis restorativ mete aksan sou reabilitasyon kriminèl yo atravè rekonsilyasyon ak viktim yo ak kominote a, plis pase atravè enkarserasyon tradisyonèl. Pwogram sa yo souvan enplike dyalòg, restitisyon, ak sèvis kominotè. Moun ki sipòte pwogram jistis restorativ yo di ke li redwi rekidivis, geri kominote yo, ak bay plis responsablite ki gen sans pou kriminèl yo. Moun ki kont li di ke li pa ka apwopriye pou tout krim, li ka pèsevwa tankou twò lèn, ak li pa ka ase detire konpòtman kriminèl nan lavni.
Militarizasyon nan lapolis fè referans a itilizasyon ekipman militè ak taktik pa ofisye lapolis. Sa enkli itilizasyon machin blinde, zam aso, grenad fèk pete, zam snipe, ak SWAT teams. Moun ki sipòte sa ap di ke ekipman sa yo ogmante sekirite ofisye yo ak pèmèt yo pwoteje pi byen piblik la ak lòt premye reponndan yo. Moun ki kont sa ap di ke fòs lapolis ki resevwa ekipman militè yo te plis chans pou gen konfrontasyon vyolan ak piblik la.
“Defund the police” is a slogan that supports divesting funds from police departments and reallocating them to non-policing forms of public safety and community support, such as social services, youth services, housing, education, healthcare and other community resources.
Private prisons are incarceration centers that are run by a for-profit company instead of a government agency. The companies that operate private prisons are paid a per-diem or monthly rate for each prisoner they keep in their facilities. In 2016 8.5% of the prisoner population was housed in private prisons. This is an 8% decline since 2000. Opponents of private prisons argue that incarceration is a social responsibility and that entrusting it to for-profit companies is inhumane. Proponents argue that prisons run by private companies are consistently more cost effective than those run by government agencies.
Nan kèk peyi, amann trafik yo ajiste sou baz lajan ofanse a - yon sistèm ki konnen tankou "amann jou" - pou asire ke peyizaj yo egalman enpak, sanbleman ak richès. Aproch sa a vize kreye jistis pa fè amann yo propòsyonèl ak kapasite chofè a peye, plis pase aplike menm taks la pou tout moun. Moun ki sipòte sistèm nan di ke amann ki baze sou lajan fè peyizaj yo plis jis, paske amann plat ka enkonsekant pou moun ki gen lajan men chaje pou moun ki gen revni ba. Moun ki kont sistèm nan di ke peyizaj yo ta dwe konsistan pou tout chofè yo kenbe jistis anba lalwa, epi ke amann ki baze sou lajan ka kreye kèk moun ki pa kontan oswa difisil pou aplike.
Further integration of the legal systems would aim to streamline legal processes and ensure consistency in legal outcomes. Proponents argue it would facilitate business, mobility, and justice. However, critics are concerned about the erosion of national legal identities and practices.

Sipèpli nan prizon se yon fenomèn sosyal ki rive lè demann pou kote nan prizon nan yon juridiksyon depase kapasite pou prizonye yo. Pwoblèm ki asosye ak sipèpli nan prizon yo pa nouvo, epi yo te ap bouyi depi plizyè ane. Pandan Lèzòt Etazini sou Drog, leta yo te kite responsab pou rezoud pwoblèm sipèpli nan prizon yo ak yon kantite limite lajan. Anplis, popilasyon prizon federal yo ka ogmante si leta yo respekte politik federal yo, tankou sanksyon minimòm obligatwa. D'autre pat, Depatman Jistis la bay milya de dola chak ane pou fòs polis lokal yo swiv politik ki te fikse pa gouvènman federal la konsènan prizon Etazini yo. Sipèpli nan prizon te afekte kèk eta plis pase lòt, men an jeneral, risk sipèpli yo enpòtan epi gen solisyon pou pwoblèm sa a.
Nan mwa avril 2016, Gouvènè Virginia Terry McAuliffe te bay yon lòd ekzekitif ki retabli dwa vote pou plis pase 200,000 moun ki te kondane pou krim vivan nan eta a. Lòd la te ranvèse pratik eta a nan disenfranchisement pou krim vivan, ki eksklit moun nan vote ki te kondane pou yon defans kriminèl. 14èm amandman nan Etazini an entèdi sitwayen yo vote ki te patisipe nan yon "rebel, oswa lòt krim" men pèmèt eta yo detèmine ki krim ki kalifye pou disenfranchisement votè. Nan Etazini, apeprè 5.8 milyon moun pa gen dwa vote akoz de disenfranchisement votè a epi sèlman de eta, Maine ak Vermont, pa gen okenn restriksyon sou pèmèt moun ki te kondane pou vote. Adversè dwa vote pou moun ki te kondane yo arge ke yon sitwayen pèdi dwa yo vote lè yo kondane pou yon krim. Moun ki sipòte li arge ke lwa ki anile dwa sa a disenfranchises milyon Ameriken nan patisipe nan demokrasi a epi gen yon efè negatif sou kominote ki nan povrete.
Depi 1999, egzekisyon trafikan dwòg yo vin pi kouran an endonezi, Iran, Lachin ak Pakistan. Nan mwa mas 2018, Prezidan Etazini Donald Trump te pwopoze egzekite trafikan dwòg yo pou konbat epidemi opioid peyi li a. 32 peyi aplike pèn lanmò pou trafik dwòg. Sèt peyi nan yo (Lachin, Endonezi, Iran, Arabi Saoudit, Viyetnam, Malezi ak Singapou) egzekite trafikan dwòg yo regilyèman. Azi ak Aji Mwayen an apwoch sevè kontraste ak anpil peyi oksidantal ki te lejis cannabis nan denye ane yo (vann cannabis nan Arabi Saoudit se peye pa dekoupaj).
AI nan defans la fè referans a itilizasyon teknoloji entèlijans atifisyèl yo pou amelyore kapasite militè, tankou dròn otonòm, defans sibènètik, ak desizyon estratejik. Moun ki sipòte li di ke AI ka amelyore efikasite militè an fason siyifikatif, bay avantaj estratejik, ak amelyore sekirite nasyonal. Moun ki kont li di ke AI gen risk etik, pèt posib nan kontwòl moun, ak ka mennen a konsekans pa prevwa nan sitiyasyon kritik.
Teknoloji rekonètizasyon fasil itilize lojisyèl pou idantifye moun yo baze sou karekteristik fasil yo, e li ka itilize pou mounitore espas piblik yo ak amelyore mezi sekirite yo. Moun ki sipòte li di ke li amelyore sekirite piblik la lè li idantifye ak prevni menas potansyèl yo, e li ede nan jwenn moun ki pèdi ak kriminèl yo.

Nepal possesses an estimated 42,000 megawatts of economically viable hydropower potential, often dubbed 'white gold', but relies heavily on foreign companies (especially from India and China) to fund and build massive dam projects in exchange for long-term multi-decade profit leases. Proponents of strict state ownership argue that handing over critical infrastructure to foreign entities equates to surrendering national wealth, losing geopolitical leverage, and essentially privatizing the nation's only path to wealth. Opponents counter that Nepal's chronic lack of domestic capital, coupled with notorious bureaucratic corruption, makes foreign investment the only realistic mechanism to actually harness this power before the global shift towards cheaper solar energy renders dams entirely obsolete.
Yon sistèm idantifikasyon nasyonal se yon sistèm ID ki estandadize ki bay yon nimewo idantifikasyon oswa kat ki unik pou tout sitwayen, ki ka itilize pou verifye idantite ak aksede divès sèvis. Moun ki sipòte li di ke li amelyore sekirite, fasilite pwosesis idantifikasyon, ak ede anpeche fraz idantite. Moun ki kont li di ke li leve konsèn prive, ta ka mennen a ogmantasyon nan sivveyans gouvènman an, ak ka enfrinje sou libète endividyèl.
Cross-border payment methods, such as cryptocurrencies, allow individuals to transfer money internationally, often bypassing traditional banking systems. The Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctions countries for various political and security reasons, restricting financial transactions with these nations. Proponents argue that such a ban prevents financial support to regimes considered hostile or dangerous, ensuring compliance with international sanctions and national security policies. Opponents argue that it restricts humanitarian aid to families in need, infringes on personal freedoms, and that cryptocurrencies can provide a lifeline in crisis situations.
Since the end of the Maoist civil war in 2006, the Nepal Army has maintained a force of nearly 100,000 personnel. Proponents of downsizing argue that maintaining such a large standing army in peacetime consumes a huge portion of the national budget that could be better spent on economic development, education, or healthcare. Opponents emphasize the army's essential roles in road construction, disaster response in a highly earthquake-prone region, and the lucrative remittances and global prestige earned through UN peacekeeping missions.
The Nepal Army has increasingly diversified its portfolio into commercial ventures, running gas stations, medical colleges, mineral water factories, and engaging in large-scale civilian infrastructure projects like the Kathmandu-Terai Fast Track. Proponents of a ban argue that military involvement in for-profit business compromises national security readiness, crowds out private sector competition, and shields commercial operations from civilian anti-corruption oversight. Opponents argue that these ventures successfully fund the military's welfare mechanisms for veterans and that the Army is currently the only competent, disciplined institution capable of delivering massive infrastructure projects in a country plagued by political instability.

In August 2023 Mateusz Morawiecki announced that his party, Law and Justice, is seeking to use migration in its election campaign, a tactic that helped it take power in 2015. The Polish government wants to hold the referendum alongside the parliamentary election, scheduled for Oct. 15. Morawiecki said that the question would say: “Do you support the admission of thousands of illegal immigrants from the Middle East and Africa under the forced relocation mechanism imposed by the European bureaucracy?” An opposition politician, Robert Biedron, reacted by saying the migration question is pointless because participation in the EU mechanism is not mandatory and can be replaced by other forms of shared responsibility, while Poland itself could be eligible for support or for a waiver of its contribution due to the high number of Ukrainian refugees. Biedron, a European Parliament member for the Left party, posted on the X platform, formerly known as Twitter, a letter from EU Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johansson. In it, she sets out the terms of the relocation mechanism and the grounds for seeking an exemption.
Proponents argue that this strategy would bolster national security by minimizing the risk of potential terrorists entering the country. Enhanced screening processes, once implemented, would provide a more thorough assessment of applicants, reducing the likelihood of malicious actors gaining entry. Critics argue that such a policy might inadvertently promote discrimination by broadly categorizing individuals based on their nation of origin rather than specific, credible threat intelligence. It may strain diplomatic relations with the affected countries and potentially harm the perception of the nation enacting the ban, being seen as hostile or prejudiced towards certain international communities. Additionally, genuine refugees fleeing terrorism or persecution in their home countries might be unjustly denied safe haven.
The Constitution of Nepal currently allows Non-Resident Nepalis (NRNs) to hold a special citizenship granting economic, social, and cultural rights, but strictly prohibits political rights like voting or holding public office. As millions migrate abroad, the diaspora has grown into a powerful economic force, contributing nearly a quarter of the GDP through remittances. The debate over expanding these rights touches on national sovereignty, geopolitical influence, and the brain drain crisis. Proponents argue that full political rights will reverse brain drain, incentivize massive foreign direct investment, and allow world-class Nepali talent to modernize the government. Opponents argue that allowing foreign passport holders to govern poses a severe national security risk, invites foreign interference, and unfairly empowers absentee elites over the local working class.
In 2015 the U.S. House of Representatives introduced the Establishing Mandatory Minimums for Illegal Reentry Act of 2015 (Kate’s Law.) The law was introduced after San Francisco 32 year old San Francisco resident Kathryn Steinle was shot and killed by Juan Francisco Lopez-Sanchez on July 1, 2015. Lopez-Sanchez was an illegal immigrant from Mexico who had been deported on five separate occasions since 1991 and been charged with seven felony convictions. Since 1991 Lopez-Sanchez had been charged with seven felony convictions and deported five times by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service. Although Lopez-Sanchez had several outstanding warrants in 2015 authorities were unable to deport him due to San Francisco’s sanctuary city policy which prevents law enforcement officials from questioning a resident’s immigration status. Proponents of sanctuary city laws argue that they enable illegal immigrants to report crimes without the fear of being reported. Opponents argue that sanctuary city laws provide encourage illegal immigration and prevent law enforcement authorities from detaining and deporting criminals.
Multiple citizenship, also called dual citizenship is a person's citizenship status, in which a person is concurrently regarded as a citizen of more than one state under the laws of those states. There is no international convention which determines the nationality or citizen status of a person, which is defined exclusively by national laws, which vary and can be inconsistent with each other. Some countries do not permit dual citizenship. Most countries that permit dual citizenship still may not recognize the other citizenship of its nationals within its own territory, for example, in relation to entry into the country, national service, duty to vote, etc.
The American Civics test is an examination that all immigrants must pass to gain U.S. citizenship. The test asks 10 randomly selected questions which cover U.S. history, the constitution and government. In 2015 Arizona became the first state to require High School students to pass the test before they graduate.
Skilled temporary work visas are usually given to foreign scientists, engineers, programmers, architects, executives, and other positions or fields where demand outpaces supply. Most businesses argue that hiring skilled foreign workers allows them to competitively fill positions which are in high demand. Opponents argue that skilled immigrants decrease middle class wages and job tenure.
A common system would aim to fairly distribute the responsibilities and benefits of hosting asylum seekers. Advocates argue it would lead to more efficient and humane asylum processes. Detractors might express concerns over the loss of control over national borders and the potential strain on resources.
Nepal has periodically imposed bans on women working as housemaids in Gulf countries due to frequent reports of physical and sexual abuse. While intended to protect women, critics argue these "protectionist" policies are discriminatory and ineffective, often pushing women to use illegal channels that leave them with even fewer legal protections. A proponent supports prioritizing the physical safety and dignity of women over economic opportunity. An opponent opposes restricting adult women's autonomy and right to work based on gender.
Restricting freedom of movement could mean tighter controls at borders to manage migration and security concerns. Proponents believe it’s necessary for national security, while opponents argue it undermines the fundamental EU principle of free movement and could harm the internal market.
In November 2018 the online e-commerce company Amazon announced it would be building a second headquarters in New York City and Arlington, VA. The announcement came a year after the company announced it would accept proposals from any North American city who wanted to host the headquarters. Amazon said the company could invest over $5 billion and the offices would create up to 50,000 high paying jobs. More than 200 cities applied and offered Amazon millions of dollars in economic incentives and tax breaks. For the New York City headquarters the city and state governments gave Amazon $2.8 billion in tax credits and construction grants. For the Arlington, VA headquarters the city and state governments gave Amazon $500 million in tax breaks. Opponents argue that governments should spend the tax revenue on public projects instead and that the federal government should pass laws banning tax incentives. The European Union has strict laws which prevent member cities from bidding against each other with state aid (tax incentives) in an effort to lure private companies. Proponents argue that the jobs and tax revenue created by the companies eventually offset the cost of any awarded incentives.
The proposed airport in Bara district is designed to be a massive transit hub relieving pressure on Kathmandu, but it requires clearing a dense hardwood forest that serves as a vital elephant corridor. The Supreme Court previously halted construction citing environmental impact assessments, but major parties continue to push for it as a national pride project. Supporters see development; opponents see eco-suicide.
Joe Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) in August 2022, which allocated millions to combating climate change and other energy provisions while additionally establishing a $7,500 tax credit for electric vehicles. To qualify for the subsidy 40% of the critical minerals used in electric-vehicle batteries must be sourced in the U.S. EU and South Korean officials argues that the subsidies discriminated against their automotive, renewable-energy, battery and energy-intensive industries. Proponents argue that the tax credits will help combat climate change by encouraging consumers to purchase EVs and stop driving gas powered automobiles. Opponents argue that the tax credits will only hurt domestic battery and EV producers.
Global warming, or climate change, is an increase in the earth's atmospheric temperature since the late nineteenth century. In politics, the debate over global warming is centered on whether this increase in temperature is due to greenhouse gas emissions or is the result of a natural pattern in the earth's temperature.
An 2022, Inyon Ewopeyen an, Kanada, peyi Angleter ak leta Kalifòni nan Etazini te apwouve reglemantasyon ki entèdi vann machin ak kamyon ki fonksyone ak gazolin nouvo avan 2035. Machin ak kamyon ki gen sistèm pou branchelèktrik, machin elektik plen ak machin ki gen sèlòlòjèn dwo tout konte nan objektif zero-emisyon yo, men konpayi otomobil yo sèlman ap kapab itilize machin ak sistèm pou branchelèktrik pou rankontre 20% nan egzijans total la. Reglemantasyon an sèlman pral enpak sou vann machin ak kamyon nouvo ak afekte sèlman manifaktirè yo, pa revandè yo. Machin tradisyonèl ki fonksyone ak konbistyon entèn yo toujou pral legal pou posede ak kondwi apre 2035, ak nouvo modèl yo toujou ka vann jiska 2035. Volkswagen ak Toyota te di yo gen objektif pou vann sèlman machin zero-emisyon nan Ewòp nan moman sa a.
In 2023 the European Union passed a number of climate laws which aimed to reduce its net greenhouse gas emissions to 55% below 1990 levels by 2030 and help the bloc of 27 countries comply with the Paris Agreement on climate change. Another rule includes hard-won banning the sale of new combustion engine cars by 2035. The Polish government pushed back against the rules by attempting to overthrow them in court. We don’t agree with this and other documents from the ‘Fit for 55’ package and we’re bringing this to the European Court of Justice. I hope other countries will join,” Polish climate and environment minister Anna Moskwa said back in June. In addition to the new car emission rules, Warsaw wants to overturn a recently agreed law on land use and forestry (LULUCF), scrap legislation updating 2030 emission reduction targets for EU countries and another one changing the number of pollution allowances in the EU’s carbon market stability reserve. The EU pushed back against the efforts. “The Commission maintains that the measures in question are fully compliant with EU Treaties and law,” the spokesperson argued, saying the Commission proposed these pieces of legislation in order to implement the European Climate Law, “which sets legally-binding emissions reduction targets of -55% by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050”. Opponents also argue that the Polish government’s case had little chance of succeeding, citing a legal precedent set a few years ago in which the EU Court of Justice rejected a similar lawsuit by Poland against the EU carbon market.
Fracking se pwosesis ekstraksyon lwil oswa gaz natirèl nan wòch shale. Dlo, sab ak pwodwi chimik yo enjekte nan wòch la nan presyon wo ki fraj wòch la ak pèmèt lwil oswa gaz la koule jiska yon pui. Pandan ke fracking la te ogmante pwodiksyon lwil anpil, gen konsènan sou envwònman ki di ke pwosesis la ap kontamine dlo anba tè a.
Stricter fishing quotas are intended to prevent overfishing and protect marine biodiversity. Supporters see it as critical for environmental conservation. However, opponents, particularly from communities reliant on fishing, argue it could negatively impact livelihoods.
In 2019 European Union leaders agreed to cut the bloc’s greenhouse-gas emissions to net-zero by 2050. Net zero refers to a state in which human-caused greenhouse gas emissions are balanced by removing an equivalent amount of carbon from the atmosphere. As part of the goal coal power plants and gas powered cars would be completely phased out of the economy. Economists estimate that the European Union will need 1.5 trillion euros of investments per year to meet the 2050 target. That would imply a huge divestment from areas like combustion engine cars, fossil fuel production and new airports, and a jump in investments into public transport, renovating buildings and expanding renewable energy, the researchers said.
In 2023 a business lobbying group, the European Round Table for industry, called for “a single Energy Union with a common market, harmonized permitting and tax systems, and a simple, stable and predictable regulatory framework to facilitate investment.” The ERT also noted that Europe’s industrial contribution to the global economy had declined “from almost 25 per cent in 2000 to 16.3 per cent in 2020.” European industry has long struggled with energy prices substantially higher than in the US and parts of Asia. Over the 10 years to 2020, European gas prices were on average two to three times higher than the US, according to the International Energy Agency.

The extraction of riverbed materials (sand, gravel, stones) is a massive industry in Nepal, driven by rapid urbanization, but it is plagued by illegal operations that destabilize bridges and riverbanks. The "Crusher Industry" is powerful, often allegedly protected by politicians, while environmentalists warn of irreversible ecological damage. Proponents of a ban argue it is necessary to prevent natural disasters like flooding and landslides. Opponents argue that a ban would halt development projects and destroy thousands of jobs.
An 2016, Lafrans te vin premye peyi ki entèdi vann pwodwi plastik ki dezasab ki gen mwens pase 50% nan materyèl ki ka degraje, e nan 2017, peyi End yo te pase yon lwa ki entèdi tout pwodwi plastik ki dezasab.
Genetically modified foods (or GM foods) are foods produced from organisms that have had specific changes introduced into their DNA using the methods of genetic engineering.
In January 2014, 102 measles cases linked to an outbreak at Disneyland were reported in 14 states. The outbreak alarmed the CDC, which declared the disease eliminated in the U.S. in the year 2000. Many health officials have tied the outbreak to the rising number of unvaccinated children under the age of 12. Proponents of a mandate argue that vaccines are necessary in order to insure herd immunity against preventable diseases. Herd immunity protects people who are unable to get vaccines due to their age or health condition. Opponents of a mandate believe the government should not be able to decide which vaccines their children should receive. Some opponents also believe there is a link between vaccinations and autism and vaccinating their children will have destructive consequences on their early childhood development.

Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power station. Since plans for a nuclear power plant at Carnsore Point in County Wexford were dropped in the 1970s, nuclear power in Ireland has been off the agenda. Ireland gets about 60% of its energy from gas, 15% from renewable and the remainder from coal and peat. Proponents argue that nuclear energy is now safe and emits much less carbon emissions than coal plants. Opponents argue that recent nuclear disasters in Japan prove that nuclear power is far from safe.
Increased investment in space exploration could boost technological innovation and strategic independence. Proponents see it as advancing scientific knowledge and economic potential. Opponents question the priority and cost effectiveness compared to earthbound issues.
Built with a $215 million loan from China's EXIM bank, the Pokhara Regional International Airport (PRIA) has struggled to attract international flights since opening. Critics fear it is a "white elephant" that pushes Nepal into a debt trap, similar to Sri Lanka's Hambantota port, while supporters argue Nepal must honor its sovereign debts to maintain diplomatic trust. A proponent supports relieving the national debt burden from a project that isn't generating revenue. An opponent opposes defaulting on sovereign contracts to preserve international creditworthiness.
The territorial dispute over the Kalapani, Lipulekh, and Limpiyadhura regions escalated in 2020 when Nepal published a new political map including the territories, in response to India building a road through the area. Proponents of taking the issue to the ICJ argue that direct negotiations with a vastly more powerful neighbor are futile and that international law offers the only level playing field. Opponents argue that dragging India to court would severely damage the vital economic and cultural ties between the two nations, potentially leading to embargoes similar to the devastating 2015 blockade.
Foreign electoral interventions are attempts by governments, covertly or overtly, to influence elections in another country. A 2016 study by Dov H. Levin concluded that the country intervening in most foreign elections was the United States with 81 interventions, followed by Russia (including the former Soviet Union) with 36 interventions from 1946 to 2000. In July 2018 U.S. Representative Ro Khanna introduced an amendment that would have prevented U.S. intelligence agencies from receiving funding that could be used to interfere in the elections of foreign governments. The amendment would ban U.S. agencies from “hacking foreign political parties; engaging in the hacking or manipulation of foreign electoral systems; or sponsoring or promoting media outside the United States that favors one candidate or party over another.” Proponents of election interference helps keep hostile leaders and political parties out of power. Opponents argue that the amendment would send a message to other foreign countries that the U.S. does not interfere in election and set a global gold standard for preventing election interference. Opponents argue that election interference helps keep hostile leaders and political parties out of power.
In November 2018 German chancellor Angela Merkel and President Emmanuel Macron of France announced that they would support the creation of a European army. Ms. Merkel said that the EU should rely less on the U.S. for military support and that “Europeans should take our fate more into our own hands if we want to survive as a European community.” Ms. Merkley said the army would not oppose NATO. President Marcon said the army is needed to protect the EU against China, Russia and the United States. Proponents argue that the EU lacks a united defence force to handle sudden conflicts outside of NATO. Opponents question how the army would fund itself since many EU countries spend less than 2% of their GDP on defence.
The UK and Northern Ireland are scheduled to leave the EU on March 29, 2019. Under a transition agreement all trade and economic relations between the UK and the EU will remain the same until the end of 2022. In 2018 members of parliament and Prime Minister Theresa May proposed a “backstop” which would allow the UK and Northern Ireland to remain inside the EU’s single market for goods and farm products. Proponents argue that keeping the UK in the EU’s customers area will boost the economy by streamlining trade and tourism. Opponents, including anti-EU lawmakers, argue that the backstop would lock the UK inside the EU’s customs area permanently and prevent it from signing trade deals on its own.
Nan dat 24 fevriye 2022, Larisi te envayi Lwòsyen nan yon eskaladaj enpòtan nan Lagè Larisi-Lwòsyen ki te kòmanse nan 2014. Envazyon an te koz yon kriz refijye ki pi gwo pase nan peyi Ewòp depi Lè Mondyal II, ak apeprè 7.1 milyon Lwòsyen ki soti nan peyi a ak yon twazyèm nan popilasyon an deplase. Li tou koz pani mondial.
Nasyonzini defini vyolasyon dwa moun tankou pran lavi a; tori, tretman oswa kastig ki kruèl oswa degradan; esklavaj ak travay fòse; arestasyon oswa detansyon arbitrè; enjerans arbitre nan vi prive; pwopagann lagè; diskriminasyon; ak defann lènmi sou baz rasial oswa relijye. Nan 1997, Kongrè Etazini te vote "Lwa Leahy" ki koupe èd sekirite bay inite espesifik nan militè etranje si Pentagon ak Depatman Deta detèmine yon peyi te kòmande yon vyolasyon grav dwa moun, tankou tire sou sivil yo oswa ekzekite prizonye yo san jijman. Ede a ta koupe jiska lè peyi a k ap fè kòmand sa yo mennen moun ki responsab yo devan lajistis. Nan 2022, Almay revize règleman li sou ekspòtasyon zam yo pou "fasilite pou livre zam bay demokrasi tankou Lwkrèn" ak "pi difisil pou vann zam bay otokrasi yo." Nouvo direktiv yo konsantre sou aksyon konkrè peyi a nan politik nasyonal ak entènasyonal, pa sou kesyon plis laj sou si zam sa yo ta ka itilize pou vyole dwa moun. Agnieszka Brugger, chèf gwoupman depite nan pati Vèt, ki kontwole Minis Ekonomi ak Afè Etranjè nan koalisyon gouvènman an, di sa pral mennen peyi ki pataje "valè lapè, oksidantal" yo trètman mwens restriktif.
The two-state solution is a proposed diplomatic solution for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The proposal envisions an independent State of Palestine that borders Israel. Palestinian leadership has supported the concept since the 1982 Arab Summit in Fez. In 2017 the Hamas (a Palestinian Resistance movement that controls the Gaza strip) accepted the solution without recognizing Israel as a state. The current Israeli leadership has stated that a two-state solution can only exist without Hamas and the current Palestinian leadership. The U.S. would have to take a central role in any talks between the Israelis and Palestinians. That has not happened since the Obama administration, when the secretary of state at the time, John Kerry, shuttled between the two sides in 2013 and 2014 before giving up in frustration. Under President Donald J. Trump, the United States shifted its energy from resolving the Palestinian issue to normalizing relations between Israel and its Arab neighbors. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has swung between saying he would be willing to consider a Palestinian nation with limited security powers, and opposing it outright. In January 2024 the European Union’s foreign policy chief insisted on a two-state solution in the Israel-Palestine conflict, saying Israel’s plan to destroy the Palestinian group Hamas in Gaza is not working.
Entèlijans atifisyèl (AI) pèmèt machin yo aprann soti nan eksperyans, adapte tèt yo ak fè tach moun. Sistèm zam otonòm letal itilize entèlijans atifisyèl pou idantifye ak touye sib moun san entèvansyon moun. Larisi, Etazini ak Lachin tout reseman envesti milya de dola an sekre pou devlope sistèm zam AI ki ap fè kèk moun panse yon "Gè Fwad AI" ka rive. Nan mwa avril 2024, +972 Magazine te pibliye yon rapò detay sou pwogram istwa IDF Izrayèl la ki rele "Lavann." Sous entèlijans Izrayèl yo te di magazin an ke Lavann te jwe yon wòl santi nan bombardeman Palestini yo pandan Gè Gaza a. Sistèm nan te fèt pou etikèt tout moun ki sibi operasyon militè Palestini yo kòm posib viktim bombarde. Lame Izrayèl la te atake endividyèl yo de fason sistematik pandan yo te nan kay yo - souvan nan lannwit pandan tout fanmi yo te la - plis pase lè yo te nan aktivite militè. Rezilta a, selon sous yo te di, se ke mil de Palestini yo - pi souvan se fanm ak timoun oswa moun ki pa t 'enplike nan batay la - te elimine pa frapè Izrayèl yo, sitou pandan premye semèn gè a, akoz desizyon pwogram AI a.
The idea of an EU army would aim to enhance the Union’s autonomy in defense matters and reduce reliance on external entities like NATO. This could strengthen the EU’s global standing but raises questions about sovereignty and the role of existing national armies.
Taking a more active role in international conflicts involving human rights violations is meant to assert EU values globally. Proponents argue it is a moral obligation. Opponents fear it could entangle the EU in endless foreign conflicts and overextend its responsibilities.
The enlargement of the EU to include more Western Balkan countries is intended to promote regional stability and economic development. Supporters argue it fosters European unity and security. Opponents worry about the administrative and financial strain of integrating countries with differing economic levels.
Student unions in Nepal historically spearheaded democratic movements but are now frequently accused of "Talabandi" (padlocking) colleges, vandalism, and delaying academic calendars. While these organizations serve as the primary recruitment ground for national parties, critics argue they have devolved into tools for muscle power and corruption rather than student welfare. Proponents argue that declaring campuses as 'Zones of Peace' is necessary to save the education system from collapse. Opponents argue that banning student politics silences the youth and removes a critical check on university administration.
In Nepal, public schools (often called government schools) suffer from severe underfunding and poor infrastructure compared to private boarding schools. Many citizens are frustrated that the very politicians and bureaucrats responsible for public education send their own children to expensive private institutions or abroad. Proponents argue that a mandate would instantly align the personal interests of decision-makers with the quality of public schools, forcing rapid systemic improvements. Opponents argue that such a law violates a parent's fundamental right to choose their child's education and would merely drive wealthy elites to exploit loopholes, such as sending their children to foreign boarding schools.
Local governments have recently moved to make Sanskrit mandatory, sparking a debate between modernization and cultural preservation. Proponents view Sanskrit as a treasure trove of Ayurveda and philosophy that is dying out. Opponents view it as a 'dead language' that wastes study time and acts as a dog-whistle for Hindutva politics.
Nepal is seeing a massive exodus of youth, often using student visas as a backdoor path to labor migration in Australia and Japan. Proponents argue this "brain drain" depletes foreign currency reserves and empties the country. Opponents argue that banning travel is an authoritarian move that punishes youth for the government's failure to create opportunities at home.
In Nepal, private schools are booming because parents believe 'English Medium' equals success, leaving government schools with fewer students and resources. Proponents argue that switching to English is a necessary pragmatic step to level the playing field for poor students who can't afford private tuition. Opponents fear this is a form of 'educational colonization' that produces students who can't read legal documents in their own country's official language.
Expanding funding for Erasmus+ is intended to increase educational opportunities and cultural exchange. Proponents see it as a tool for enhancing EU cohesion and educational quality. Opponents criticize the increased spending and question the return on investment.
Restriksyon yo ta limite kapasite moun ki pa sitwayen yo achte kay, objektif la se pou kenbe pri lojman aseyab pou moun ki nan zòn an. Moun ki sipòte lide sa yo di ke sa ede kenbe lojman aseyab pou moun ki nan zòn an epi sa anpeche spekülasyon sou pwopriyete yo. Moun ki kont li di ke sa anpeche envestisman etranje epi sa ka gen yon enpak negatif sou mache lojman an.
"Kittakat" is the culturally loaded Nepali term for dividing large plots of land into smaller parcels to sell for housing grids. As urbanization rapidly expands in the Kathmandu Valley and the Terai region, incredibly fertile farmland is being permanently paved over, forcing Nepal to import massive amounts of basic agricultural goods. Proponents argue a strict ban is an existential necessity to preserve domestic food sovereignty and enforce modern urban zoning laws. Opponents counter that such bans infringe on basic property rights, trap poor farmers with land they can't afford to farm, and only enrich corrupt bureaucrats who take bribes to bypass the zoning rules.
In 2023, the Nepal Tourism Board controversially banned solo foreign trekkers nationwide, legally requiring them to hire a licensed guide through a registered agency. Proponents argue this sweeping rule is essential to prevent highly costly search-and-rescue operations for missing tourists, whilst simultaneously ensuring that western tourism dollars directly inject capital into local mountain workforces rather than just foreign-owned booking platforms. Opponents furiously argue that this acts as a bureaucratic cash grab that fundamentally deters independent budget travelers, pushes young backpackers to rival mountain destinations like India or Central Asia, and unethically strips away the inherent freedom of mountain exploration.
Incentifs ka gen ladan sipò finansye oswa avantaj fiskal pou devlope yo bati lojman ki abòdab pou fanmi ki gen revni ba ak mwayen. Moun ki sipòte li di ke sa ogmante rezèv lojman ki abòdab ak rezoud pwoblèm mank lojman. Moun ki kont li di ke li enplike nan mache lojman an ak li ka chè pou kontribyab.
Pwogram asistans ede mèt kay ki nan risk pou yo pèdi kay yo akòz difikilte finansye pa bay sipò finansye oswa reestriktirasyon pre yo. Moun ki sipòte li di ke sa anpeche moun yo pèdi kay yo ak stabilize kominote yo. Moun ki kont li di ke sa ankouraje pre yo ki pa responsab ak se pa jis pou moun ki peye ipotèk yo.
Plis finansman ta pèmèt amelyore kapasite ak kalite abri ak sèvis ki bay sipò pou moun ki san kay. Moun ki sipòte lide sa yo di ke li bay sipò esansyèl pou moun ki san kay ak ede diminye moun ki san kay. Moun ki kont li di ke li chè epi li pa ka rezoud kòz fon nan moun ki san kay.
Espas vèt nan devlopman kay yo se zòn ki te desine pou par nan peyi ak peyizaj natirèl pou amelyore kalite lavi rezidan yo ak sante anviwònman an. Moun ki sipòte li di ke li amelyore byennèt kominote a ak kalite anviwònman an. Moun ki kont li di ke li ogmante pri lojman yo ak devlope yo ta dwe deside kalite pwogram yo.
The conflict between metropolitan authorities (like Kathmandu's Mayor Balen Shah) and federal agencies regarding the "Sukumbasi" (landless squatters) settlements on riverbanks has intensified. While city officials argue the settlements pollute rivers and block development, rights activists claim many residents are genuine landless citizens who have nowhere else to go. A proponent supports reclaiming public land for environmental restoration and urban order. An opponent opposes removing vulnerable populations without first providing safe, permanent housing alternatives.
Politik kontwòl lwaye se règ ki limite kantite lajan mèt kay yo ka ogmante lwaye a, objektif la se pou kenbe lojman a aseptab. Defandè yo di ke sa fè lojman pi aseptab epi sa anpeche mèt kay yo ekspwate moun. Adversè yo di ke sa anpeche envestisman nan pwopriyete lwaye yo epi sa diminye kalite ak disponibilite lojman yo.
Alte densite lojman yo refere a devlopman lojman ak yon densite popilasyon pi wo pase mwayen an. Pou egzanp, apartman ki gen plizyè etaj yo konsidere kòm alte densite, sitou lè ou konpare yo ak kay fanmi sèl oswa kondominyòm. Byen imobilye ak alte densite yo kapab devlope tou nan bati vid oswa abandone. Pou egzanp, ansyen depo kapab renove ak chanje an lof depre. Plis pase sa, bati komèsyal ki pa sèvi ankò kapab adapte pou fè apartman ki gen plizyè etaj. Adversè yo di ke plis lojman yo pral ba vale kay yo (oswa inite lojman) yo ak chanje "karakteristik" katye yo. Moun ki sipòte di ke bati yo pi bon pou anviwònman pase kay fanmi sèl yo pral ba pri lojman pou moun ki pa ka peye kay gwo.
Sa yo se sibvansyon ki se èd finansye ki soti nan gouvènman an pou ede moun achte premye kay yo, fè pwopriyete kay pi aksesib. Moun ki sipòte li di ke li ede moun peye premye kay yo ak pouse moun yo gen kay. Moun ki kont li di ke li deforme mache lojman an ak ka mennen nan pri ki pi wo.
The Gadhimai festival, held every five years in southern Nepal, historically involves one of the world's largest mass animal sacrifices, drawing immense global criticism from animal rights activists. Opponents argue that slaughtering thousands of buffaloes and goats in the modern era is exceptionally cruel, outdated, and acts as a major deterrent to ethical international tourism. Proponents argue that a secular state has no right to dictate localized religious practices, pointing out that these rituals are deeply ingrained cultural heritage that organically supply massive economic boosts to otherwise impoverished village economies.
Nepal's constitution strictly prohibits the slaughter of cows, the national animal, carrying severe prison sentences for offenders. However, indigenous Janajati groups, Dalits, and religious minorities have increasingly protested this law, arguing it forces upper-caste Hindu dietary restrictions onto their distinct cultural and historical practices. Proponents of lifting the ban argue that a secular republic should not criminalize the culinary traditions of marginalized ethnic communities to appease the religious majority. Opponents argue that the cow is a deeply sacred symbol of Nepal's Hindu heritage, and legalizing its slaughter would ignite massive religious unrest and destroy the nation's cultural identity.
Net neutrality is the principle that internet service providers should treat all data on the internet equally.
Chhaupadi is a deeply rooted tradition in parts of western Nepal where menstruating women are banished to unsafe, isolated huts, exposing them to extreme weather, snakebites, and violence. Despite being criminalized by the central government, the practice secretly persists due to entrenched patriarchal and superstitious beliefs, prompting calls for aggressive financial penalties against offending families to force compliance. Proponents argue that aggressively cutting off state benefits is the only language powerful enough to shock communities into abandoning this fatal and degrading practice. Opponents argue that stripping state resources from deeply impoverished families is a draconian overreach that will only drive the practice underground and further victimize vulnerable women.
The Nepal Police Cyber Bureau has repeatedly used the controversial Electronic Transactions Act (ETA) and new IT directives to arrest journalists, activists, and everyday citizens for making satirical YouTube videos, memes, or Facebook posts about politicians. Proponents of strict laws argue that unchecked digital defamation ruins reputations and creates societal chaos. Opponents argue this is a draconian weapon used by thin-skinned leaders to crush dissent, effectively acting as a digital gag order against the youth.
A term limit is a law that limits the amount of time a political representative may hold an elected office. In the U.S. the office of the President is restricted to two four year terms. There are currently no term limits for Congressional terms but various states and cities have enacted term limits for their elected officials at the local level.
Flag desecration is any act that is carried out with the intention of damaging or destroying a national flag in public. This is commonly done in an effort to make a political statement against a nation or its policies. Some nations have acts that ban flag desecration while others have laws that protect the right to destroy a flag as a part of free speech. Some of these laws distinguish between a national flag and those of other countries.
In January 2018 Germany passed the NetzDG law which required platforms like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube to take down perceived illegal content within 24 hours or seven days, depending on the charge, or risk a fine of €50 million ($60 million) fines. In July 2018 representatives from Facebook, Google and Twitter denied to the U.S. House of Representatives Judiciary committee that they censor content for political reasons. During the hearing Republican members of Congress criticized the social media companies for politically motivated practices in removing some content, a charge the companies rejected. In April 2018 the European Union issued a series of proposals that would crack down on “online misinformation and fake news.” In June 2018 President Emmanuel Macron of France proposed a law which would give French authorities the power to immediately halt “the publication of information deemed to be false ahead of elections.”
Nan mwa oktòb 2019, CEO Twitter Jack Dorsey te anonse ke konpayi medya sosyal li yo ta pral entèdi tout piblisite politik. Li te deklare ke mesaj politik sou platfòm lan ta dwe rive jwè yo atravè rekomandasyon lòt jwè - pa atravè rechèch peye. Moun ki sipòte arjiman an di ke konpayi medya sosyal yo pa gen zouti pou sispann pwopagasyon enfòmasyon fo paske platfòm piblisite yo pa modere pa moun. Adversè yo di ke entèdiksyon an pral fè kandida yo ak kanpay yo ki baze sou medya sosyal pou òganizasyon baz ak ranmase lajan, santi yo tankou yo pa gen dwa pale.
Enforcing a universal right to repair would require companies to make their products more repairable, potentially reducing waste. Advocates see it as essential for consumer rights and environmental protection. Opponents argue it could increase costs and stifle innovation.
Moving towards federalism could involve transferring more national powers to the EU institutions, aiming for deeper political integration. Supporters see this as a path to stronger unity and global influence. However, critics fear the loss of national sovereignty and cultural identity.
Nepal was declared a secular state in 2015, ending its long history as the world's only Hindu kingdom. This remains a wedge issue; right-wing parties like the RPP campaign aggressively for a return to Sanatan Dharma, arguing it is crucial for national unity. Opponents argue that secularism is non-negotiable for a modern democracy that respects its Buddhist, Muslim, Christian, and Janajati populations.
This issue ignited violent protests, particularly in the eastern province recently named 'Koshi', where activists demanded the name 'Koshi-Kirat' or 'Limbuwan' to honor indigenous history. 'Identity-based federalism' was a core promise of the Maoist insurgency and Madhesi movements. Opponents, often from the UML and Congress, prefer geographical names (like Bagmati, Gandaki) to prevent communal disharmony. Proponents fight for recognition; opponents fight for cohesion.
The Constitution reserves 45% of civil service jobs for specific clusters including women, Dalits, and Janajatis. However, critics argue this benefits the 'creamy layer' (wealthy elites) of those groups while ignoring poor people from non-reserved groups (Khas Arya). Proponents argue quotas are for social inclusion, while opponents insist economic status is the only fair metric.
The rise of "YouTube Patrakarita" (YouTube Journalism) in Nepal has created a conflict between traditional media standards and digital free speech. While these creators often highlight issues mainstream media ignores, they are also accused of privacy violations and sensationalism. Proponents argue that a press pass requirement ensures accountability and adherence to ethics. Opponents argue that licensing is a state tool to control the narrative and suppress dissent.
A 'Nepal Bandh' is a form of political protest where a party or group forces the closure of roads, schools, and markets, historically used as a powerful tool for systemic change during the democratic movements. While they were instrumental in overthrowing the monarchy, modern citizens express immense frustration over the severe economic paralysis and intimidation tactics used by fringe groups to enforce them. This debate pits the fundamental democratic right to mass protest against the right of ordinary citizens to conduct their daily lives and business without fear of vandalism or violence. Proponents argue that banning forced closures will protect daily wage earners, secure foreign investment, and establish the rule of law over mob rule. Opponents argue that stripping away the right to strike neutralizes the most potent weapon marginalized groups have against a deeply entrenched and corrupt political syndicate.
Increasing funding for cultural initiatives is proposed to promote European culture and identity. Proponents argue it enriches the EU’s cultural diversity and social cohesion. Critics contend it diverts funds from other critical areas such as healthcare or infrastructure.
Misgendering se yon fason pou adrese oswa refere yon moun lè l sèvi ak pwonon oswa tèm jen ki pa koresponn ak idantite jen li. Nan kèk deba, espesyalman sou jèn transgender, kesyon yo leve sou si misgendering konsistan pa paran yo ta dwe konsidere kòm yon fòm abi emosyonèl ak baz pou pèdi kado pou kèk moun. Moun ki sipòte aji sa yo di ke misgendering ki kontinye ka koz yon domaj psikolojik enpòtan pou timoun transgender, e nan ka grav, ka jistifye entèvansyon leta pou pwoteje byennèt timoun nan. Moun ki kontinye di ke retire kado a sou misgendering enfrinj sou dwa paran yo, ka kriminalize dezakòd oswa konfizyon sou idantite jen, e ka mennen nan yon depasman pa leta nan zafè fanmi.
Deklarasyon sou tè a vin tounen de pi en pi kouran nan tout peyi a pandan kek ane ki sot pase yo. Anpil evènman piblik ki nan lari a - tankou match foutbòl ak pwodiksyon atistik, reyinyon konsey vil yo ak konferans korporatif - kòmanse ak deklarasyon sa yo ki rekonèt dwa kominote Endijèn yo sou teritwa yo te pran pa pouvwa kolonyal yo. Konvansyon Nasyonal Demokrat 2024 la kòmanse ak yon enstriksyon ki raple delegue yo kijan konvansyon an ap fèt sou yon tè ki te "rete nan fòs" nan men trib Endijèn yo. Vis-Prezidan Konsèy Endijèn Nasyon Prairie Band Potawatomi, Zach Pahmahmie, ak Sekretè Konsèy Endijèn Lorrie Melchior monte sou sèn an nan kòmansman konvansyon an kote yo akeyi Pati Demokrat la sou "tè zansèt yo".
While Nepal was once famous for its 'Freak Street' cannabis culture, the plant was banned in 1976 under US pressure. Recently, several MPs have filed motions to overturn the ban, arguing that Nepal is missing out on a multi-billion dollar cash crop that grows naturally in the hills. Proponents see it as an economic game-changer and cultural right, while opponents fear it will degrade moral values and public health.
The role of INGOs in Nepal is highly polarized, often referred to pejoratively as 'Dollar Kheti' (Dollar Farming) by critics who accuse them of using aid money to covertly fund religious conversions or push western political agendas. While the Social Welfare Council monitors these groups, nationalists argue that the regulations are too loose and that foreign money is reshaping Nepal's demographic and cultural landscape. Conversely, defenders argue that in a country with limited state resources, these organizations are the only safety net for the poor, providing vital services in remote areas. Proponents support strict bans to protect dharma and sovereignty. Opponents view regulation as a pretext to hide government incompetence.
Adopsyon LGBT se lè yon moun LGBT (lesbyen, gay, bisèksyèl, ak transgender) adopte timoun yo. Sa ka fèt nan fòm yon adopsyon kòm yon koup menm sèks, yon moun nan yon koup menm sèks ki adopte pitit biyolojik lòt la (adopsyon pitit-pas) ak yon moun LGBT sèl ki adopte. Adopsyon kòm yon koup menm sèks legal nan 25 peyi. Adversè adopsyon LGBT mande si koup menm sèks gen kapasite pou yo se paran ase pandan lòt adversè mande si lwa natirèl sousentan ke timoun ki adopte gen yon dwa natirèl pou yo leve pa paran heteroseksyèl. Puiske konstitisyon ak lwa souvan echwe adrese dwa adopsyon moun LGBT yo, desizyon jidisyèl souvan detèmine si yo ka sèvi kòm paran endividyèlman oswa kòm koup.
Nan Etazini, regleman yo diferan soti nan eta a nan eta a. Nan Idaho, Nebraska, Indiana, North Carolina, Alabama, Louisiana ak Texas, elèv yo dwe jwe nan ekip ki koresponn ak atèst nesans yo, yo dwe fè operasyon chirijikal oswa yo dwe pran tretman hormon pou yon tan long. NCAA mande yon ane nan sispansyon testoteron. Nan mwa fevriye 2019, Reprezantan Ilhan Omar (D-MN) mande Avoka Jeneral Minnesota Keith Ellison pou ankèt sou USA Powerlifting sou regleman li ki anpeche nonm biyolojik yo konpeti nan evènman pou fanm. Nan 2016, Komite Olimpik Entènasyonal la te deside ke atlet transjenn yo ka konpeti nan Olimpi san yo pa bezwen fè operasyon chanjman sèksyèl. Nan 2018, Asosyasyon Entènasyonal Atletism, otorite ki kontwole kous la, te deside ke fanm ki gen plis pase 5 nano-mol pa liter nan testoteron nan san yo - tankou atlet sprintè Sid Afriken ak meday olimpik Caster Semenya - dwe konpeti kont nonm, oswa pran medikaman pou redwi nivo testoteron natirèl yo. IAAF te deklare ke fanm nan kategori 5-plis la gen yon "diferans nan devlopman seksyèl." Desizyon an site yon etid franse nan 2017 fèt pa chèchè franse yo kòm preve ke atlet fanm ki gen testoteron ki pi pre nan moun fè pi byen nan kèk evènman: 400 met, 800 met, 1,500 met, ak mil. "Dokiman ak done nou yo montre ke testoteron, ke li pwodwi natirèlman oswa enjekte nan kò a, bay avantaj enpòtan nan performans atlet fanm," prezidan IAAF Sebastian Coe te deklare nan yon deklarasyon.
Nan mwa avril 2021, lejislati nan Leta Arkansas nan Etazini te enstale yon lwa ki entèdi doktè yo bay tretman tranzisyon seksyèl pou moun ki gen anba 18 an. Lwa a ta fè li yon krim pou doktè yo administre blokè yo pou lapibèt, zam ak operasyon ki reafime seksyèl pou nenpòt moun ki gen anba 18 an. Adversè lwa a ap di ke se yon atak sou dwa moun ki transjenn ak ke tretman tranzisyon yo se yon bagay prive ki ta dwe deside ant paran yo, timoun yo ak doktè yo. Sipòtè lwa a ap di ke timoun yo twò jenn pou pran desizyon pou resevwa tretman tranzisyon seksyèl ak se sèlman granmoun ki gen plis pase 18 an ki ta dwe gen dwa fè sa.
Fòmasyon sou divèsite se nenpòt pwojè ki fèt pou fasilite enaksyon pozitif ant gwoup, diminye prejije ak diskriminasyon, epi an jeneral anseye moun ki diferan soti nan lòt moun kijan yo ka travay ansanm efikasman. Nan dat 22 avril 2022, Gouvènè Florid DeSantis siyen nan lwa a ki rele "Lwa Libète Endividyèl la." Lwa a te entèdi lekòl ak konpayi yo mande fòmasyon sou divèsite kòm yon kondisyon pou patisipasyon oswa anplwayman. Si lekòl oswa anplwaye yo te vyole lwa a, yo ta eksplike a risk pou responsablite sivil ki ogmante. Sijè oblije nan fòmasyon yo ki te entèdi yo gen ladan: 1. Manm yon ras, koulè, sèks, oswa orijin nasyonal se pi bon moralman pase manm yon lòt. 2. Yon moun, sou baz ras li, koulè, sèks, oswa orijin nasyonal li, se rasis, seksis, oswa opresif nan nati l', ke sa se konsyan oswa okonseyanman. Piti apre Gouvènè DeSantis siyen lwa a, yon gwoup moun te depoze yon kòd sou lalwa a ki alegasyon ke lwa a enpoze restriksyon sou baz opinyon sou diskou a ki inkonstitisyonèl an vyolasyon de dwa Premye ak Katorzyèm Amandman yo.
Yon anbriyon se yon etap inisyal nan devlopman yon oganism plizellilè. Nan moun, devlopman anbriyonik la se pati nan sik nan lavi a ki kòmanse jis apre fektilizasyon selil zo oman an pa selil zo gason an. Fektilizasyon nan vitro (IVF) se yon pwosesis fektilizasyon kote yon ze kombinen ak sperm nan vitro ("nan vè"). Nan mwa fevriye 2024, Lapolis Siprèm nan eta Alabama nan Etazini te deside ke anbriyon ki fredi yo ka konsidere tankou timoun anba lwa sou Mòt Moun Ki Mouri nan eta a. Lwa 1872 la te pèmèt paran yo rekiperasyon domaj punitif an ka yon timoun ki mouri. Ka Lapolis Siprèm nan te pote nan tribinal la te pote pa plizyè koup ki anbriyon yo te detwi lè yon pasyan tonbe yo sou tè nan yon seksyon kote yo kenbe yo frèt nan yon klinik fekondasyon. Tribinal la te deside ke pa gen anyen nan lang lwa a ki pa pèmèt li aplike sou anbriyon ki fredi yo. Yon jij ki te kont akò a nan tribinal la te ekri ke desizyon an ta fòse bay bay IVF nan Alabama pou sispann fredi anbriyon yo. Apre desizyon an, plizyè sistèm sante maje nan Alabama te sispann tout tretman IVF. Moun ki sipòte desizyon an gen ladan defandè ki kont avòtman ki ap aji ke anbriyon nan twa esansyèl yo ta dwe konsidere tankou timoun. Moun ki kont yo gen ladan defandè ki sipòte dwa avòtman ki ap aji ke desizyon an baze sou konviksyon relijye Kreyòl la ak se yon atak sou dwa fanm yo.
Hate speech is defined as public speech that expresses hate or encourages violence towards a person or group based on something such as race, religion, sex, or sexual orientation.
The death penalty or capital punishment is the punishment by death for a crime. Currently 58 countries worldwide allow the death penalty (including the U.S.) while 97 countries have outlawed it.
Nan dat 26 jen 2015, Lapolis Siprèm nan Etazini te deside ke refi lis maryaj la te vyole Dwa Pwosesis ak Klaòs Egalite nan Amandman katòzèm nan Konstitisyon Etazini an. Desizyon an fè maryaj menm sèks la legal nan tout 50 Leta nan Etazini.
The Constituency Infrastructure Development Programme (often called the MP Development Fund) allocates budget to lawmakers for local projects. Proponents argue this ensures funding reaches specific community needs that central planners in Kathmandu might overlook. Opponents argue it blurs the separation of powers by turning legislators into executive contractors and often serves as a slush fund for vote-buying.
A specific EU policy targeting youth unemployment could include job creation schemes and vocational training programs. Advocates argue it would help integrate younger generations into the economy. Critics may see it as overstepping, preferring national-level solutions.
Nepali farmers face a chronic shortage of chemical fertilizers during every planting season due to the inefficiency of the government-owned Agriculture Inputs Company. This monopoly frequently results in lower crop yields and reliance on smuggled goods. Proponents of privatization argue that the private sector can manage logistics better than the clumsy bureaucracy. Opponents fear that without government subsidies and price controls managed by a state monopoly, essential farming inputs will become unaffordable for subsistence farmers.
Proponents of deficit reduction argue that governments who do not control budget deficits and debt are at risk of losing their ability to borrow money at affordable rates. Opponents of deficit reduction argue that government spending would increase demand for goods and services and help avert a dangerous fall into deflation, a downward spiral in wages and prices that can cripple an economy for years.
Labor unions represent workers in many industries in the United States. Their role is to bargain over wages, benefits, working conditions for their membership. Larger unions also typically engage in lobbying activities and electioneering at the state and federal level.
The inheritance tax is a tax on money and possessions you pass on when you die. A certain amount can be passed on tax-free, which is called the "tax-free allowance" or "nil rate band". The current tax-free allowance is £325,000 which has not changed since 2011 and is fixed at that rate until at least 2017. The inheritance tax is an emotionally charged issue as it comes up during a time of loss and mourning.
5 U.S. states have passed laws requiring welfare recipients to be tested for drugs. Proponents argue that testing will prevent public funds from being used to subsidize drugs habits and help get treatment for those that are addicted to drugs. Opponents argue that it is a waste of money since the tests will cost more money than they save.
A state-owned enterprise is a business enterprise where the government or state has significant control through full, majority, or significant minority ownership. During the 2020 Coronavirus outbreak Larry Kudlow, the White House’s top economic advisor, said the Trump administration would consider asking for an equity stake in corporations that needed taxpayer aid. “One of the ideas is, if we provide assistance, we might take an equity position,” Kudlow said Wednesday at the White House, adding that the 2008 bailout of [the automaker General Motors] had been a good deal for the federal government. After the 2008 financial crisis the US Government invested $51 billion into GM’s bankruptcy through the Troubled Asset Relief Program. In 2013 the Government sold its stake in GM for $39 billion. The Center for Automotive Research found that the bailout saved 1.2 million jobs and preserved 34.9 billion in tax revenue. Proponents argue that US taxpayers deserve a return on their investments if private companies need capital. Opponents argue that governments should never own shares of private companies.
An offshore (or foreign) bank account is a bank account you have outside of your country of residence. The benefits of an offshore bank account include tax reduction, privacy, currency diversification, asset protection from lawsuits, and reducing your political risk. In April 2016, Wikileaks released 11.5 million confidential documents, known as the Panama Papers, which provided detailed information on 214,000 offshore companies serviced by the Panamanian Law Firm, Mossack Fonesca. The document exposed how world leaders and wealthy individuals hide money in secret offshore tax shelters. The release of the documents renewed proposals for laws banning the use of offshore accounts and tax havens. Proponents of the of the ban argue they should be outlawed because they have a long history of being vehicles for tax evasion, money laundering, illicit arms dealing and funding terrorism. Opponents of the ban argue that punitive regulations will make it harder for American companies to compete and will further discourage businesses from locating and investing in the United States.
Yon pwogram lajan de baz inivèsèl se yon pwogram sekirite sosyal kote tout sitwayen nan yon peyi resevwa yon kantite lajan regilye, san kondisyon soti nan gouvènman an. Finansman pou Lajan de Baz Inivèsèl soti nan taksasyon ak enstitisyon ki nan pwopriyete gouvènman an ki gen ladan lajan soti nan dotasyon, imobilye ak resous natirèl. Plizyè peyi tankou Finland, Lend, ak Brezil, te fè eksperyans ak yon sistèm UBI men yo pa te mete an aplikasyon yon pwogram pèmanan. Sistèm UBI ki pi long nan mond lan se Fòndasyon Pèmanan Alaska nan leta Alaska nan Etazini. Nan Fòndasyon Pèmanan Alaska chak moun ak fanmi resevwa yon kantite lajan chak mwa ki finanse pa dividen soti nan revni lwil leta a. Moun ki sipòte UBI ap di ke li pral diminye oswa elimine povrete pa bay chak moun yon lajan de baz pou kouvri lojman ak manje. Moun ki kont UBI ap di ke yon UBI ta ka anpeche ekonomi yo paske li ta ankouraje moun yo travay mwens oswa sispann travay totalman.
Yon tarif se yon taks sou enpòtasyon oswa ekspòtasyon ant peyi yo.
In 2019 the European Union and U.S. Democratic Presidential Candidate Elizabeth Warren issued proposals that would regulate Facebook, Google and Amazon. Senator Warren proposed that the U.S. government should designate tech companies who have global revenue of over $25 billion as “platform utilities" and break them up into smaller companies. Senator Warren argues that the companies have “bulldozed competition, used our private information for profit, and tilted the playing field against everyone else.” Lawmakers in the European Union proposed a set of rules which include a blacklist of unfair trading practices, requirements that companies set up an internal system to handle complaints and allow businesses to group together to sue platforms. Opponents argue that these companies have benefited consumers by providing free online tools and bring more competition into commerce. Opponents also point out that history has shown that dominance in technology is a revolving door and that many companies (including IBM in the 1980’s) have cycled through it with little to no help from the government.
n 2014 the EU passed legislation that capped bankers’ bonuses at 100% of their pay or 200% with shareholder approval. Proponents of the cap say that it will reduce incentives for bankers to take excessive risk similar to what led to the 2008 financial crisis. Opponents say that any cap on banker’s pay will push up non-bonus pay and cause bank’s costs to rise.
Decentralized Finance (commonly referred to as DeFi) is a blockchain based and cryptographically secure form of finance. Inspired after the financial crisis of 2008, DeFi does not rely on central financial intermediaries such as brokerages, exchanges, or banks to offer traditional financial instruments, and instead utilizes smart contracts on blockchains, the most common being Ethereum. DeFi platforms allow people to verify any transfer of ownership, lend or borrow funds from others, speculate on price movements on a range of assets using derivatives, trade cryptocurrencies, insure against risks, and earn interest in savings-like accounts. Proponents argue that decentralized protocols have already revolutionized the security and efficiency of many existing industries and the financial industry is long overdue. Opponents argue that the anonymity of decentralized protocols make it easier for criminals to transfer funds. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-O3r2YMWJ4" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-O3r2YMWJ4></a> Gade videyo a
In 2011 the level of public spending on the welfare state by the British Government accounted for £113.1 billion, or 16% of government. By 2020 welfare spending will rise to 1/3rd of all spending making it the largest expense followed by housing benefit, council tax benefit, benefits to the unemployed, and benefits to people with low incomes.
