Details

Description^[?]:

I feel that if we switch to this income tax program we will be able to have more money to finance social service programs to help our people. As a moderate member of the RGB, I believe funding social services will help some of our more....extreme members see the government in a more positive light. If this passes, I will propose some funding increases that will still leave us with a massive amount of surplus.

Random fact: When it comes to creating a Cultural Protocol in a Culturally Open nation, players are not necessarily required to provide a plausible backstory for how the nation's cultural background developed. However, the provision of a plausible backstory may be a factor in whether Moderation approves the Cultural Protocol if players in surrounding nations question its appropriateness for their region of the game map.
