I've made a couple anti-military decisions, and yet "The large government is effectively ruled by the Department of Defence."

The outcomes don't always seem to make much sense to me.

There was one issue I dismissed because the three options were not-acceptable to me:

Ban cars
Ban Cyclists
Fund the automobile industry.



I let the death penalty be instituted because it was what the people wanted, and my civil and political rights increased.

Some of this stuff is weird.

I had the choice of either allowing police camera's everywhere, or to not allow them. Now, it says that I have banned surveillance camera's in the whole country.

Another one, I banned contributions from corporations to political parties, and it says that 'corporate and private dontations to political parties are banned"

I banned cars. I would have liked to have banned petrol and diesel cars, but it wouldn't let me, none of the other options I could ever agree with, and I don't dismiss issues, I want to listen to my people.

It's not right-wing. Witness today's ranking of people. The dumbest nations to the smartest nations are organized right-wing to left-wing.

That's an obvious political statement by the owner that right-wing = dumb as a brick

It's probably more likely just a hit at America, the country where 11% of the population can't even find their own country on a world map.

Donegeal,

Not necessarily...

You see, the way I look at it, just because most of our citizens have an IQ equivalent to that of a telephone pole doesn't mean that the conspiratorial leadership is that dumb... rather, all of the brains are concentrated at the top, making the manipulation of all the poor sobs in the whole rest of the power pyramid painfully easy

So sorta the Human Hive meets Morgan Industries...

I'd rather have Morgan Industries meets the University, though... so I'm going to have to work on that one

I was thinking Nation States would either be

Neither.

Of course we could apply the same strategy we used successfully in the Civ3demo game.

Kill off all the citizens of the other civilizations until ours are the most intelligent because their the only ones left alive..........
