Passing Laws In The Senate

Recommended Posts

Guest spartacus

So we have had a chance to speak in the Senate so following on from that, if you could put through a new law, or amend an existing one then what would it be?

 

 

If I could pass a new law I would stop slavery and if citizens wanted labour they would have to hire and pay people!

Remember though, the landed aristocracy, heavy industry and the military (slaves as war booty) benefit from the slave trade.

 

Which pits you against the military and the wealthy elite of the empire which causes a fairly short political career.

 

Politics hasn't changed today, why do you think oil companies and tabacco manufacters have powerful lobbies in washington.

I am well aware how profitable the trade in slaves was, all the more reasons why I would ban it!! :rolleyes:

 

I know, why not try and put in an answer to the post! Let us be different for a change!! <_<
