[desc] After a recent flight between @@CAPITAL@@ and Maxtopia's capital city Violetville was overbooked, resulting in the violent removal of a first class passenger, a debate has started about @@NATION@@'s approach, if any, to overbooking flights. You have been dragged in to make a decision
[opt] "Now look here says @@RANDOMNAME@@, I paid top @@CURRENCY@@ for that seat, and yet those horrible police officers thought I should be dragged off the plane just because the airline hadn't properly planned for the amount of people who would want to fly that day. It's unfair. I say that if we pay for our seats, we should be allowed to fly in that seat. It's that simple"
[effect] Planes are full of passengers sitting on each others' knees, or in the toilets.
Tourism drops
[opt] "But we do plan!" sputters @@RANDOMNAME@@, Chief Operations Officer of the involved airline, who strides into your office, completely disregarding the fact that you can only be seen by appointment, and there were no appointments today . "It's just that this time, we suddenly had an influx of passengers, which isn't normal, because studies show that some people will book a flight, but won't turn up. I say that we should be allowed to throw passengers off the plane if we have to. Oh, and it's their fault for trying to get on a full plane, so they should have to live with it. Security seem to agree with him, as they literally throw him into the street
[Effect] Passengers are likely to be arbitrarily thrown off airplanes.
Civil rights drop
[opt] "How about this", says @@RANDOMNAME@@, your Minister of Compromises and Other Weird Solutions, running to ensure he gets into the office before anyone else. "We should impose a rule that airlines across the Nation can't take more than a certain number of people per flight, and If it turns out the flight is overbooked, we should require the airline to issue mandatory refunds to the surplus passengers. Of course, it would mean that the surplus wouldn't have any choice in the matter, and the airline might make a bit of a loss, but that's what happens when you compromise"
[Effect] There is now a permanent race to get to the airport to be on the plane in time, and airlines are known for paying hefty refunds to passengers who are over the limit.
Economic freedom drops.
Civil rights drop
[opt] "Why do we even have airplanes in the first place?" asks @@RANDOMNAME@@, waving a "Plane Stupid" banner. "Airplanes are noisy, and sometimes they break down or the flights are cancelled for any old reason. I say we should get rid of airplanes and invest in public transport...or domestic @@ANIMAL@@s and teach people to ride them
[effect] People can be seen riding around on @@ANIMAL@@s
Aviation industry is abolished
Please don't bite. It's a first draft, and I've never written an Issue before
