Complaint about Issue

I should not be getting this issue.


Too Low On Laws, Say Citizens

The Issue

Various opinions have been brought to your attention over what your closest advisors are referring to as the 'anarchy situation'.


The Debate

"We've got to do something about this chaos!" yells General Lars Shiomi, firing a rifle at a band of armed looters. "There's no order in this country! No one is safe! We must rebuild the army and crack down on the militant groups ravaging our fair land! It's the only way we will ever return the cesspit of crime and depravity Starhawk has become to a land of law and order!"
[Accept]

Returning fire, both figuratively and literally, is Alexei Licorish, biker gang leader and anarchist: "That there's anyone claiming to be a government is ludicrous. People should be allowed to determine their own fate and survival without fear of breaking these inhibiting laws! All government officials should be removed at once if this country is ever to become well and truly 'equal'!"
[Accept]

"I've got a different idea," says Billy-Bob Nagasawa, your minister of commerce, speaking from his hiding place under a desk. "Television viewers in more developed countries actually like seeing gratuitous violence. We could put up cameras in some of the more dangerous streets and sell the broadcasting rights to foreign networks. It could raise awareness of our situation, or at the very least rake in some laserchips. The money could be used to fund a more organised police system to enforce the law."
[Accept]



It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of Education, Law & Order, and Social Equality.


Normally, I don't mind when things get a little muddled, but this is ridiculous.

Well the game is about governmental change. If you want to have a major change, support one of those views. If you don't, then dismiss it. It's a simple (heh...simple...) riot that you have there. Either let it finish (dismiss it) or take decisive action...action that could lead to the downfall of your government eventually. It's the name of the game...the potential for change. In my opinion, anyways.

What's wrong is that the issue is claiming that Starhawk is in chaos, with lots of crime. This is clearly not the case, as one can see from my nation page. We have plenty of law enforcement, and an active government.

Ah, but one of the game's variables (likely in the political freedoms category) is low enough to meet the qualifications for that particular issue. The game processes a lot more data and variables on your nation that you would guess from a nation's spotlight page.

Then I'd rather its choice of variables was based on quality (appropriateness) rather than quantity.

Oh well, I know this won't change anything. I'll just have to dismiss the issue any time I get it at one of my nations.

The national description gets screwy sometimes. It's funny, it's just a game.

Yes, but a capitalist paradise where free enterprise is illegal??? Just how do I change that?

I've never recieved this issue and Crime had been crippling in Squi for over a year now, the government is non-exitstant and we should be ripe for this issue. I suspect the Mods need to double check the issue to see if some variable is inverted.

I've checked your nation and you simply don't meet the other requirement for the issue.
