Thank you Devin.

I guess this bill speaks for itsself. It aims to easen the lives of people in the Pacific that suffer from allergies and intolerances. My brother-in-law has a deadly nut allergy, and it is a pain to read all the ingredients, and yet at the end being not sure if he will be able to eat it or not. Upon passage of this bill, this will be the past, one look at the brown/red/green dot, and you know, a nut-allergic won't be able to eat it - it's easy, it's swift, it's so much more convenient.
The "Made in Pacific" and "Organic" labels are also there to strengthen the local economy - products produced in the Pacific will be easier found, and therefore bought more and in turn helps the Pacific food economy. The organic label helps organic farmers, both inside and outside the Pacific, and makes it easier for customers to find organic products.
Any opinions, critiques, amendments, anything?

Folks, this needs to stop. I'm not saying it to be a total asshat, but we've got one person doing a lot of the work and not many people are engaging with the content he's putting forward. I mean, you guys didn't even say that you agreed with the bill... you just jumped to a vote.

Could we see, like... a bit of debate next time? Otherwise there won't be much incentive for Governor Cranberry to keep doing what he's doing. And it's really good work. Okay? I was glad to see some discussion on the anti-homelessness bill. Maybe use that as a model?

Noted. That is good advice. The debate on the anti-homelessness bill was productive.

I, for one, mentioned that I agreed with this proposal on an earlier thread, and commented that there weren't any faults in need of mending. Sometimes, it is hard to debate something that everyone views as reasonable.  The Pacific Region does seem to have a sleepy government, but I think that's something we're all working on. From what I've heard, activity is increasing in this region, but it is still a work in progress.

Not to be rude, but I would appreciate if you would back off and let me do my job. I just had my wisdom teeth out, so yeah I haven't really been in the mood for this. Besides,what was there to really say? It was pretty cut and dry. Anyway this bill has passed.

Maybe my comment was out of place, but the fact is you guys are under a little more scrutiny than everyone else, just because people are always talking about doing away with the Pacific. It's unfair, but it is what it is. I don't want to see the region disappear. And from the outside looking in, a thread with no discussion and the governor pleading for input doesn't really look good. That's all I'm saying.

Anyway, I'll leave you be. I know it's a busy time.

[I Will Not Be Wrong]

Aye.
