New issues don't seem to change anything...

I think that new issues don't change anything to my civil right, political freedom and economy. They only affect taxes...

Am I wrong ?
If I'm not, then new issues are useless !

I know my english suck, sorry about it.

well, that could be, if the writer didn't include that in the effects they will not affect your nation either.

Issues DO alter your nation Stats, including the new issues. I've seen it happen, sometimes BIG changes too.

Correct. I've seen the code, they all affect something, just not always things you'll notice in your CR/Econ/PR fields.

No, not just taxes. Issues can effect anything from auto manufacturing to weather.

Weather? Can an issue actually affect the weather somehow? I've never seen any mention of weather effects...

There's a ranking that comes out every now and then for "Best weather". Your guess is as good as mine as to how it's decided - although some issues give you the opportunity to destroy bits of the environment, which might have something to do with it.

Two hours ago, my crime rate rose from 'totally unknown' to 'crippling', thanks to the third option of the torture issue.

Damn, that's a huge rise.

I think that the effects of issues are magnified even further in small countries.
