Title: Off-Kilter
Validity: Nations with low public healthcare
Description: Game creator Immortal Body recently revealed that, due to the sorry state of the healthcare system, the only solace he could find for his mental illness was through creating his widely-acclaimed game, ON. A variety of persons, including Body himself, have come to you to offer just what this means to the country.
Option 1:"Well, it's rather clear to me, @@LEADER@@," the game's creator states as he pulls out an excessively long list that droops to the floor. "See this list? It's every mistake your completely worthless healthcare system has done. Neglecting me, not giving me the right dosage, not cleaning my restroom — the offenses just go on and on, and this is before I even get into the mistakes they've done with others. @@LEADER@@, if you want our nation's people to live well, you absolutely must increase funding for public health, no matter the cost!" (this last line could definitely be better)
Fallout 1: mental health funding has skyrocketed Too bland, but I don't want to rip off of the other mental health things like "anyone who so much as frowns is assigned a psychiatrist."
(must permit private industry)
Option 2:"Seems like a waste of tax money to me," claims @@RANDOMNAME@@, the infamously greedy (and obese) CEO of Sugar Games. "Although, I do think that I — er... we, could certainly benefit from what Body claims. If you could maybe help those o' us in the games industry get our hands on inspiration like ol' Body, we could create wondrous things with their help, which means more cash for me and more tax for you!" Looking around, he comes in just a little closer to whisper into your ear. "Wouldn't even cost anyone a dime. These folks are too stupid to know when they're being scammed."

Option 3:"Bah! Don't listen to that fat cat," cries socialist politician @@RANDOMNAME@@, somehow pushing the CEO of Sugar Games out of the room despite the latter's huge weight. "If we let those bloody capitalists have their way, they'll be abusing our citizens for nothing but their own wallets. I propose that we the government should be the only ones trusted with them. We can create our own gaming company — owned by you, of course — and drive everyone out of business with the ingenuity of those like Body."

Option 4:"Now hold up just one moment!" yells out @@RANDOMNAME@@, a doctor at a local mental asylum and also Immortal Body's previous doctor. "I've had to deal with these accursed ill, and they've done me nothing but trouble, and what do I get from it? Well, some money, yes, but also needless amounts of stress! Now I'm the one needing a bloody psychologist! If you ask me, our nation would be better off if we executed everyone that was like Immortal Body."

Option 5:"Clearly nobody is approaching the true issue here!" claims @@RANDOMNAME@@, a literature professor & part-time video game critic at the Unviersity of Japhet. "For too long have video games been said to only be 'entertainment for simple-minded fools,' yet there is such rich detail in ON that I find such a sentiment to be ludicrous, false, flagrant! Consider the first area in the game..." As his rant continues, you eventually fall asleep, although @@HE@@ wakes you up, thankfully at the end of his tirade. "@@LEADER@@, you must add the analysis of video games alongside that of literature to enrich and supplement our students' education, for there is a massive treasure trove of knowledge and analysis for our students to find within their beloved games!"
