Recently, medical insurance premiums across the nation have been skyrocketing following several highly-publicised medical-malpractice lawsuits, making it costlier than ever to get treatment. Doctors are asking the government to step in.
"All that these doctors are interested in is saving their own necks," says Ethel Sword, CEO of 'I Can't Believe It's A Law Firm!'. "They were negligent in the course of their work and are unwilling to pay the price. I mean, how do you perform a heart transplant on the wrong guy unless you're not paying attention? I for one think that our citizens deserve better from the healthcare service, and if doctors cause damage, they should pay for it. It's that simple. If some decent doctors get caught up in it, then it's surely their own fault for not being careful enough?"


"The problem certainly is capitalism," says Klaus Usman, a famed socialist. "But outlawing the insurance industry will not solve the main problem: the healthcare system itself! It's disgusting! I've seen paramedics check wallets before injuries! We must introduce a national health service and put some healthy investment into medical colleges, hospitals, and the likes. Then we'll have an over-abundance of competent doctors! The insurance industry won't be able to raise a finger to it and the citizens won't have to pay for treatment. Except through tax, of course."
Has something like this happened before? And what do you think, which option is better?

Following new legislation in Steelmen, it's a common sight to see angry commuters with grenade launchers mounted on their vehicles.
It warms my soul when I see that the results of the issues match what I'm trying to create.
Where do we go?
Where do we end up when we save the world?

The Issue

Following the ban on cars, a criminal alliance dominated by Olympic-class sprinters has sprung up, resulting in hundreds of running footwear shops being robbed. Shaylion's police force has requested that they be allowed to ride Rats as a substitute for their inability to chase these athletic thugs on foot.
The Debate

"It's brilliant, if you ask me," says portly Police Chief Hope Christmas while enjoying a doughnut break. "Chasing criminals on foot is so tiresome now that we can't have our cars. If the government allowed Mounties, the entire process would be so much easier. We wouldn't even need to put handcuffs on suspects, since we'd just trample 'em down!"

"It's a good idea, but we can solve this using a much more direct approach," muses a tanned off-duty cop. "I mean, why bother with animals when you can still allow cars? I agree cars should be banned for the public, but we policemen need them. Besides, it's MUCH more fun to run over criminals with cars than Rats."

"You wimps are a disgrace!" bellows lycra-clad gym instructor Zack Nagasawa. "You don't need cars or Rats to keep up. It's about time someone whipped the lot of you into shape. Give me four hours a day with these pansies and I'll have them catching criminals in no time at all. Now drop and give me twenty!"

It seems like this awesome issue suggests riding rats. What size are they, by the way?

Politicians from a distant and obscure part of Qasardastan have been calling for the government to split Qasardastan into various semi-autonomous regions, each with an elected council to govern their designated area.
Hooray, I finally waited for this issue.

The Issue

A tear-stained petition crosses your desk, signed by a newly-formed coalition of parents whose school-age children have been killed in action. They demand you revisit the nation's policy on minors in the military.

The Debate

"It's barbaric that we have children in the military!" sobs bereaved father Zack Thiesen. "Why do we put our little ones in harm's way? There must be a better way to keep this country safe. I'd gladly go to the front lines instead, if it meant my children's safety. Our kids should be in school, not the workplace and definitely not the army."

"We really need that child labor to keep the military running smoothly," concludes auditor Dave Steele after reviewing the budget for the thousandth time, "but they don't necessarily need to be frontline infantry. In order to console parents, we could restrict children under the age of majority to non-combat roles such as maintenance and cooking. That sounds like a fair compromise to me."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.

"It's not our vertically-challenged recruits that are the problem; it's the guns!" bellows Quartermaster Sergeant Fleur Han. "They're too big for our pint-sized patriots. What we need are appropriately-sized weapons to outfit the army. It might not protect the grunts in combat, but at least they'll take a few more Bigtopians with them when they go. Shoot, we could even export the miniature weapons - turn ourselves a profit while we're at it!"

See, I'm not such a mean dictator after all :3
