The Issue
The government is rife with embezzlement and fraud as bribes and graft are accepted both blatantly and frequently by politicians and other government officials.
The Debate
1. "This is a systematic problem endemic of Dark Heresh’s state of life," says Tobias Jones, the president of a government watchdog organisation. "The other day I asked a police officer the directions to a restaurant and he demanded fifty reichsmarks on the spot! Even the road sweepers have to be paid not to dump rubbish in your garden! We need to inflict severe penalties on anyone abusing the system. Maybe the threat of a hanging will teach them to respect the responsibility of their positions."
2. "The problem is transparency," says Konrad King, member of the National Whistleblower Association. "They can do whatever they want because they have absolutely no obligation to provide the public with the details of what they're doing. We should make all the details of any gifts or money available to the public, and make politicians accountable to the law."
3. "It's really not THAT bad, is it?" asks George W. du Pont, your Minister of Commerce, whilst fiddling with a large gold ring. He reaches into his pocket and places a thick envelope on your desk. "Maybe it’s all just a prank. Maybe it will all just... go away..."
Heh, yer right there bud, juts a prank...
But dis wil be no prank, Gurads!Ge this man in de town sq and hang him, wel make hin as example to oothers

Mvassland has free and open elections. But people are still apathetic. I'm doing well.

Why wouldn't they be apathetic? Your country is run by businesses and $$$$ -- who needs the vote when all they can think of is $$$$?

As long as the government isn't in the way of the common man's social freedoms and ability to earn $$$, then what difference does it make?
And Skama is a Corrupt Dictatorship. And Mvassland has no income tax. How does the government make any money?

You don't even have a government:Quote:
There is no government in the normal sense of the word; however, a small group of community-minded, corrupt, pro-business individuals devotes most of its attentions to Education, with areas such as Social Equality and Defence receiving almost no funds by comparison.

I don't even know why I don't have a government. I keep legislating about police and education and stuff - who are these "community-minded individuals"?

Probably a corporation that wants to act as a government.
But it's not greedy since it doesn't even require taxes, they have my respect

Corporations aren't community-minded.  And where are they getting the money to do this, anyway?

So essentially I'm the head of a non-profit organization? Then, if Mvassland is so disliked, where am I getting the money?

No, like I said before, companies bribe you for it -- they give you money with certain... conditions, and they compete for that (since after all, you're "government" and have a bit of more authority overall, even if no income -- so you basically need each other; but they compete in this bribing, which one of them to be in 'power' indirectly).
not sure if you get it.

Ehm, you have some serious difficulties with the REAL world it seems
No, they give you money so you can invest in education, and they ask something IN RETURN -- such as, probably your cops just happened to look elsewhere when they... I dunno, do something that otherwise would bring them to jail?
