Divestment

[Paffnia]

Recognizing the dual crises of climate change and gun violence, I have decided to embark on a personal divestment campaign here in XKI. As of today, I no longer own the shop items Air Shipping, Trucking, Weapons Factory, Car Factory, nor Gas Station, given the centrality of carbon emissions or violence to their profit models. I know that XKI shop items are virtually interchangeable (pun intended) and that doing this on an online game will have zero RL effect, but hey, a simulated nation's gotta do what a simulated nation's gotta do.

If I was a Citizen of the Paffnian nation I would not vote for its Dignitary because my job would be on the line because of this Act. I'm just roleplaying lol.

Perusing the report, it becomes obvious that all the trucking companies benefited from all the holiday gift returns, having to ship the returned goods back to the manufacturers.  As a result, people who own the shop item Trucking will receive a 250 taco bonus for each trucking company they own.

Economic collapse!

So that's one competitor out of the weapons factory market... more for me. I already have more than 100 of those factories and you've inspired me to get some cattle farms, all the mines, and some extra shipping facilities and some factories
