By the way, about the issues.
I've introduced copyright here.
Following new legislation in The Great Water, CDs are regularly copy-protected.
In the issue, there was repeated talk about various "most notably songs," "STARVING ARTISTS," "famous rapper with three platinum albums."
Well, I think copyright should exist. After all, if a person comes up with something, creates a certain creative product, they have the right to reap the rewards of their success.
Pizza delivery, cheese exports, and trout fishing have all declined. And should I now cry because the author of the issue is an idiot? Probably not. We need to hope that something will increase randomly later.

So, should I cry now because the issue's author is an idiot?
More like a prankster. After all, neither the game's creator nor those who come up with the issues have decided whether it's a SERIOUS state simulation or a humorous one. As a result, it's neither one nor the other. When I realized this, I somehow lost the desire to try and bring the country to the state I had originally envisioned.

The third option is really bad. You can guess that just by the fact that it's suggested by some rapper-retard. But in general, if I understand correctly, it not only implies the impossibility of copying music from discs (to music players, phones, etc.), which also means the impossibility of buying music online (because otherwise this law wouldn't make sense), but it also states that CDs will break more often (so you have to buy them again) => the downsides are in everything.

Everything is fine, I understood that this option would reduce the production sector (and it did), tourism (I can also understand that). But what does trout fishing have to do with it?
p.s. The first and second options didn't suit me.

- Jamil al-Fasid saw the benefit in our cooperation and directed me to you. I represent the interests of a group dissatisfied with the way things are. We are ready to pay a lot of money for ultimate power tools that cannot be found on the open market.
Okay. I'll take it, and put the shotgun back in its holster. The rifle might not be very accurate, but I'm not exactly a sharpshooter myself. But I can definitely use it for suppressing fire, since it fires in bursts.

- We primarily operate in Calmia and Actaea and are ready to collaborate with ambitious individuals who see opportunities. I cannot disclose details about our business for obvious reasons, but that is not why I am here. Everyone in our circle is aware of a new product in Burhan's clandestine trade, and my task is to verify this information. If I can confirm what I expect, we will be ready to discuss the terms of a mutually beneficial deal.
Pizza delivery, cheese export, and trout fishing have all declined.
Cheese – because the varieties are now protected by copyright, and not every factory can produce any kind of cheese. Pizza – because the cheese supply has decreased. Trout – because some genius patented fly fishing ))))
Well, at the very least, they'll give a special banner.
Following the passage of a well-supported bill that contained half a dozen riders, corruption watchdog groups are lobbying the government to take action against the use of these unrelated addenda in lawmaking.
The Debate
"This is unacceptable," says legislative clerk Marleen Han, peeking out from behind a wall of 3-ring binders. "It paves the way for corporate corruption, eats up all our time and money, and, quite frankly, is exhausting! We must require each bill to have one - clearly defined - purpose and be able to state that purpose in a concise title. That way we won't have any more defense spending bills with addenda about cheese processing regulations. The industry will hate it, but if I have to read through one more schizophrenic morass, I'll quit!"
Accept
"Yes, these riders can be a threat to the democratic process," begins Party Majority Leader Ivan Dovey, "But to ban them outright is simply foolish. We need the ability to amend bills, and sometimes those attachments aren't always clearly connected. Therefore, I propose we grant the legislature the ability to veto any rider by a simple majority vote. That way, necessary riders can still be attached and this other tom-foolery can be nipped in the bud."
Accept
"Look, this is how things have always worked," says Ryan Chicago, the CEO of Cheesemongers Unlimited, Ltd. "Representatives' time is both finite and valuable. Do you have any idea how many bills there'd be if each one could only have one aim? Legislation would come to a stand-still! Yes, it can be prone to corruption, but find me a government that's corruption free and I'll eat my shoe!"
Accept
"Can't trust the government to do anything right," scolds economic analyst Matilda Neumann, glancing up from a worn copy of The Fountainhead. "We've given it a fair chance, it's failed, and now the private sector will have to swoop in to fix it. If you privatize the legislature, I can assure you it'll be humming efficiently and in the black by this time next year!"
