Re: Proposal 89 - Anti-Cannibalism Act
I'm voting YES here.
The reason is listed below:
Allowing people to 'eat' the dead, or even, to eat that which the dead have been processed into - is sickening. Not only are you eating someone part of the Empire (or part of another nation) you are also in a way supporting the practice.
In the case of the NMX, they've processed many citizens, of the empire, and of other nations, into food products. You are essentially eating man, women, and CHILDREN in the process. This is something that is sickening to me, and downright distasteful. By accepting the rations, and eating that product despite knowing what it was made out, is - in some cases - supporting the practice there-of.
Not to mention that by allowing people to cannibalize during these times, you are also going to effect moral and it could also potentially lead to trust issues in the populace. People will notice one person cannibalizing, and that'll cause that person to be looked at with suspician, then the process spreads outward to effect others. Before long, you have a population that is distrustful or concerned about the person beside them.
So, yes I do vote for this act.
