A proposal has been introduced in the House of Earls:
The Government will increase taxes on businesses up to 80%. The Government will then use the tax money to allocate salaries to the companies' workers. Business owners can take their own salaries from leftover money. They also will use the money for dividends in the stock market.

Companies will submit files yearly on their taxes, as well as employee information and suggested salary for the next 12 months. The Government will pay salaries monthly(on the last day of the month), although up to 35% of the next month's salary can be taken any day until the 15th day of the month.

Sel Appa does not currently need aid. Also, Sel Appa would like to remain a social-capitalist state. Where utilities and mass transit are government-owned, but actual produced items are privately-owned.

We do not think well of this step towards oppression, or rather "socialism." In fact our government would like to dissuade you from this plan of action. Are there incentives that will allow you to turn your decision around or will the Republic have to boycott you like everyother socialist nation?
