UNITED NATIONS RESOLUTION #6
End Slavery
A resolution to improve worldwide human and civil rights.

Category: Human Rights Strength: Significant Proposed By: Monocerous

Description:
The scourge of slavery yet remains in these progressive times. People are bought and sold like cattle, unable to determine their destiny. Their families are split apart; they are allowed no possessions of their own. They are beaten, chained, and tortured.

Therefore, I propose that the following human rights be given to every peoples of this great world:

- The right to leave her or his job, given two weeks' notice.

- The right to own possessions.

- The right to travel freely throughout their country.

- The right to bodily safety from one's employer.

- The outlawing of the selling or purchasing of people.
