Wow a new issue!!


That's what happens when you turn your great libertarian nation into a dictatorship.

Truelly the best way to go. In reality libertarian isn't that great for population growth. I'm trying to boost my population.

While effusively praising Dissidents's leadership and bowing repeatedly, a delegation has humbly requested that the government take a more "modernistic" view in the future.

The Debate
The High Minister for Finance, who also happens to be your brother, dismisses the claim. "What these people fail to realize is that you know what's best for them. The alternative is anarchy! I say stick to your course. And execute these wackos for treason."

This is the position your government is preparing to adopt.


"Perhaps the people could be given some more political freedoms," muses your Chief of Staff, who is your sister. "Is there really such harm in allowing public discussion of ideas? We could even have a real Opposition Party. One that isn't just full of your puppets, I mean."
[Accept]

Nah, not a new issue. I see it all the time whenever I lower the civil/political rights.

this was the first time I have lowered civil rights. they are usually the highest. but I feel like my dissidents were being too dissident. I needed to toughen things up.
