[TITLE] A Killer Business Plan
[DESCRIPTION] Recently, the CEO of a large publicly-traded @@DEMONYMADJECTIVE@@ @@MAJORINDUSTRY@@ company has faked his own death in a publicity stunt gone wrong, prompting thousands of shareholders to sell off stock and causing the @@NAME@@ Stock Exchange to plummet in response.
[VALIDITY] Must have Capitalism as a policy, mid-to-high Economy stat preferred.
[OPTION 1] “Six months of gains wiped out, all because some impulsive clowns decided to jump ship,” scoffs economic advisor @@RANDOMNAME@@, while discreetly checking @@HIS@@ stock portfolio under the table. “I think it’s high time we implemented regulations to limit sudden dumping of stock. My portfolio- sorry, the market- can’t keep taking hits like this.”
[EFFECT] shareholders trying to offload stock in a failing company go bankrupt from government fines
[OPTION 2] “He rode a shark. Covered with explosives. Into an active volcano. And you’re telling me I shouldn’t be able to take my hard-earned @@CURRENCYPLURAL@@ elsewhere?” asks @@RANDOMNAME@@, a millionaire investor with no day job. “The real problem here isn’t the free market- it’s idiot CEOs who think they can get away with anything just because they’re rich. Make stunts like these carry steep punishment- hell, maybe even bring in the death penalty!”
[EFFECT] people who think they can fake their own deaths are dead wrong
[OPTION 3] “You’re kidding, right?,” spouts Michel Cove, an overzealous film director with a fancy for gratuitous explosions. “The death penalty? For a little publicity stunt? Where’s the suspense? Where’s the drama?! I say, with all the attention this has been getting, why don’t you start doing some crazy stunts yourself? I have a bungee cord and a stick of dynamite right here with your name on it!”
[EFFECT] @@LEADER@@’s new public persona is off to an explosive start

Greetings, all!
This is my first-ever post in the Got Issues section of the forum, in addition to being my first-ever attempt at writing an issue. With that being said, I'm eager to hear feedback from the community on the above draft and I'm more than willing to take constructive criticisms in order to make this issue better. Additionally, I'm also looking for suggestions on a better title, as the one I have right now feels a bit lacking. If you have any comments, questions, or advice, I'd love to hear it : )
Thank you in advance!
