A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation.
Category: Repeal
Resolution: GA#600
Proposed by: Magecastle Embassy Building A5
General Assembly Resolution #600 “Comfortable Pillows for All Protocol” (Category: Regulation; Area of Effect: Consumer Protection) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Convinced that a resolution being written as "humorous" does not justify serious flaws in the text, as said flaws will still bind member nations regardless of the intent,
Asserting that for many poorer or less-developed member nations, mandating the domestic distribution of pillows forms a rather blatant waste of government funds, reducing the budget available for more vital projects such as healthcare, welfare, or humanitarian aid,
Shocked that the resolution also requires pillows and "functioning sleep medications and sleeping devices" to be "all widely accessible and affordable in their member state", potentially requiring member nations to make even luxurious or expensive pillows and sleeping devices widely affordable alongside cheaper ones,
Emphasising that this burden on member nations is compounded by the target's lack of any form of assistance whatsoever to member nations in complying with its potentially expensive madates, the World Assembly
Strikes out the "Comfortable Pillows for All Protocol".

While there are many people who face severe difficulties getting sufficient and restful sleep, and those issues may require medical treatment, the right to which is a legitimate concern for the World Assembly, GA 600 indeed doesn't treat the subject with the seriousness the subject deserves nor does it appear to actually address the underlying medical issues. Pantso favors repeal in this case and recommends For.

I love my pillow and recognize the need for a comfortable place to rest my weary head. I rarely support repeals, but this one deserves my backing.
