-On August 19, 2007, [[Gladi]] (E) proposed that Parliament establish a new levy amongst N00bs in order to raise money for its budget, as well as a commission to oversee its enforcement.  This proposal was divisive, garnering support from [[Steffen]] (FFF), [[Superdude]] (PPP), and [[Kabraloth]] (FFF) but strong opposition from [[The Bald Imposter]] (KETWIWBP), [[Historyfan92]] (YSP), and [[Flocculencio]] (KETWIWBP).+On August 19, 2007, [[Gladi]] (E) proposed that Parliament establish a new levy amongst N00bs in order to raise money for its budget, as well as a commission to oversee its enforcement.  This proposal was divisive, garnering support from [[Steffen]] (FFF), [[Superdude]] (PPP), and [[Kabraloth]] (FFF) but strong opposition from [[The Bald Imposter]] (KETWIWBP), [[Historyfan 92]] (YSP), and [[Flocculencio]] (KETWIWBP).
  
 [[Haggis]] (E) proposed amending Gladi's proposal and called for forcing all n00bs to post in separate parts of AH.Com until they reached a certain to-be-defined limit.  This was also opposed by The Bald Imposter (KETWIWBP), Historyfan92 (YSP), and Flocculencio (KETWIWBP). [[Haggis]] (E) proposed amending Gladi's proposal and called for forcing all n00bs to post in separate parts of AH.Com until they reached a certain to-be-defined limit.  This was also opposed by The Bald Imposter (KETWIWBP), Historyfan92 (YSP), and Flocculencio (KETWIWBP).

 Despite strong support, six endorsements to three opposed, this bill was never actual voted upon and not endorsed unilaterally by the [[Evil Party]] and/or the [[Yorkshire Socialist Party]] after a working majority was established.  Had this bill been enacted, it would have been a major blow to the n00b rights movement and perhaps increased support for either the Shadow Parliament (Fall 2007) or Anti-Parliament (May 2008) movement, as well as the Noob Party (October/November 2007). Despite strong support, six endorsements to three opposed, this bill was never actual voted upon and not endorsed unilaterally by the [[Evil Party]] and/or the [[Yorkshire Socialist Party]] after a working majority was established.  Had this bill been enacted, it would have been a major blow to the n00b rights movement and perhaps increased support for either the Shadow Parliament (Fall 2007) or Anti-Parliament (May 2008) movement, as well as the Noob Party (October/November 2007).
