Description[?]:
| Establishing minimum wage regulations while noble in intent hurts the works that it would most help. By setting an established rate of a minimum rate of pay; this gives companies a bar at which to meet. This takes competition out of the market place. If a citizen applies for a job and their offered wages isn't agreeable to them; they have the full right to go to another company. Employers need employees just as much as employees need employers. This is has an equalizing effect and will create a more competitive market place and perhaps spur on economic growth as a welcome byproduct. |

| Random fact: Players who consent to a particular role-play by acknowledging it in their own role-play cannot then disown it or withdraw their consent from it. For example, if player A role-plays the assassination of player B's character, and player B then acknowledges the assassination in a news post, but then backtracks and insists the assassination did not happen, then he will be required under the rules to accept the validity of the assassination role-play. |
