Privatisation vs. nationalisation of companies

Postby Indyman » Sun May 15, 2022 11:43 pm

Hello all,

our new, beautiful country is facing its first challenges and the first thing we notice is that when it comes to rescuing economically weakened companies, there are only options to save them with free money.

How does the game deal with the fact that the government could also buy shares in the company if the taxpayer already has to pump money into the company? If the government has to do the work of the company, everyone in the state should also benefit from it.

Is this aspect taken into account at all in the game or is partial nationalisation always seen as negative?

As far as I know there's currently no issue with an option that suggests doing this. The best place to ask is probably over there. If there really isn't one, do you feel like having a go at writing one?

If the nation is classified as 'Anarchy' there still is a [strictly limited] national government... and those aren't "biker gangs", they're traditional cross-Clan 'Warrior Societies', generally respected rather than feared.
