Vote Against GA resolution World Space Administration


General Assembly Vote Recommendation

Part of the Information for WA Voters program

Resolution at Vote: World Space Administration
Vote Recommendation: Against

Ministry Review
Written by: Separatist Peoples and Zemnaya Svoboda

This proposal is absolutely rife with significant issues. While the author clearly has some very aspirational ideas on the topic, the unfortunate facts about the matter leave it grasping only tenuously at a likely solution.

The actual results of this proposal are incredibly vague; the regulations are entirely unspecified, the safety precautions urged are not stated, and the entire task of regulating space is left up to a single committee, with no input whatsoever from individual states. Nor does the resolution give any guidance as to what sort of bylaws the WSA should institute, nor toward what purpose.

The proposal does not specify (nor allow bylaws to specify) how the benefits of "cosmos research" should be disseminated, or even that they should be at all. It would require the dissemination of "WA ideals" which are ambiguous at best. The proposal does not stipulate how the spoils, if any, of space exploration might be shared, nor does it allow the WSA to regulate this. The WSA's authority to regulate "cosmos travel" is both too specific and too vague: any space travel can be regulated in any way (without guidance,) and yet the distribution of discovered technologies, resources, and knowledge remains ungoverned.

This proposal has entirely failed to address the very complex issues of international space exploration. It is the determination of the Ministry that it is very much in the best interests of The North Pacific, and even the entire WA, to vote AGAINST this proposal.
