“Since when have we let the women of this country determine its morality?” rages traditionalist Tarquin Duras, his wife and daughters standing behind him in fearful silence. “A woman’s nakedness is for her husband to behold, and for none other. All women should be forced to cover themselves head-to-toe while in public, and should not venture out of the home without permission. They should obey their husbands or male relatives in all things, including their clothing choices.”
fathers are free to sell their daughters to whomever they choose

If the gov't needs less money to donate to the WA, it can afford to tax its citizens less- but tax rate actually went up after I selected that option. No big deal, only 0.5 percent but I expected tax to go down quite significantly. And to add insult to injury, I selected that option mainly because I wanted to lower taxes.

“Now the way I see it is that it’s either green, expensive, and sprawling; or compact, polluting and cheap. Wouldn’t it be nice if we had the best of both worlds? Well, we can!” claims fission technician Harambe Harishchandra. “Nuclear power is reliable, clean, and although it isn’t cheap, it won’t break the bank. There is a risk of deadly meltdown, but this is relatively small, and the only people who could be against this are anti-nuclear protesters, but what do we care about those tree-hugging hippies?”

Consistent with my leadership style, I selected the nudism option. It had some confusing impacts, but apparently no impact on my nudity ranking, which remains at an embarrassing 5% in the world, 6% in the region. If I can somehow get to the top 0.7% in foreign aid, and the top 1% in welfare, why can't I get my people naked?

Of course, choosing to go to war with Brancaland or subsidize porn production (???) would be more radical, but still, it going down because of my choice is strange, and it's not one of my usual stats that slightly fluctuates for no reason.

It just does. Political freedom mildly suppresses industry.
Never quite understood that one myself, and have queried it in the past with the Technical team. However, I'm informed it's one of those things that is more complex than it seems on the surface, which I can surely believe. Someone like Violet might be able to explain the reasons behind it better.

For now, all I can really say is that it is working as intended, and that a halving of government spending is NOT meant to equal to a halving of income tax. The simulation is way more complicated than that, and the factors that made your nation have a much larger tax cut than expected are based around multiple facets of your economy. Likewise, there are nations out there who might halve spending and barely see income tax change at all.
I don't think I can say much more than this without revealing more than I am allowed.
