[validity] All nations
[description] Tensions have come to a head in the college student demographic as the latest university semester kicked off over rapidly inflating price of textbooks. An endless sea of beleaguered 20-somethings waving tiki torches has amassed beyond the horizon demanding an end to the exploitation of students through exorbitant textbook prices.
[Option 1] “ATTENTION @@LEADER@@!” shouts @@RANDOMNAME@@ from a megaphone. “We the oppressed, stressed, and consistently underdressed are tired foregoing meals and basic comforts in order to afford the required tools for our education! We, the future of @@NAME@@, have come before you to demand immediate action against the publishing companies to make our textbooks more affordable!”
[Fallout 1] not using a textbook as a coaster at a college party is considered a party foul
[Option 2] “@@LEADER@@ don’t let those tiki torch waving hooligans intimidate you” says McStraw-Field publishing company representative Goodman DiPyro. “Textbooks are an important aspect of the education experience and current market prices are reflective of this. How can a medical student identify the difference between a cyst and a lipoma without the most accurate and descriptive images possible? If the students had paid any attention to their studies they would know that helping the publishers is investing in @@DEMONYM@@ future.”
[Fallout 2] newer editions of chemistry textbooks offer subatomic images of everyones favorite elements
[Option 3] “@@LEADER@@, while our publishing friend here does bring up great points about the importance of education, these textbooks are absolutely terrible for the environment!” retorts your Minister of Higher Education @@RANDOMNAME@@. “Educating the masses is great and all, but not at the expense of our pristine forests! I propose that we overhaul the education system so that our students use interactive tablets with all of their learning material is digital and readily accessible. Goodbye heavy backpacks and hello 21st Century!”
[Fallout 3] strip mining of rare earth metals is up while back problems are down
[Option NV] “Duddy, who let the poors out onto the front lawn?” questions Richard Kensington-Wellington III, heir to the Kensington-Wellington fortune. “The work should have never been allowed to study in the first place. I mean, it’s quite obvious after all that only the elite of society should be educated, all of my friends and their duddies say so! In fact, I don’t want to see any more of these common folk in schools anymore!”
[Fallout NV] domestic housekeeping and landscaping are taught in schools in lieu of math and sciences
[Option 4 Validity] Has a high tax rate.
[Option 4] “No, no, no, no, NO!” shouts University of @@CAPITAL@@ economics professor Adam Keynes. “Subsidizing the education system will never see a return on investment worthy of the initial investment made as the costs will ultimately inflate the deficit overall. While there can be some benefit to investing in our future generations, there are far better uses of taxpayer @@CURRENCY@@ without inflating our national debt! I’d give you a list of some of these benefits, but I do not have that information presently on-hand. I do know that it is all explained in my macroeconomics textbook which you can buy from the University of @@CAPITAL@@ bookstore for the paltry price of 300 @@CURRENCYPLURAL@@!”
