How do I get my government to spend more on Public Transport, The Environment, and Social Equality? I haven't got any issues dealing with these yet, so I've come to he conclusion that the issues are wrongly balanced. Over half the issues I've received so far deals with religion, yet none has dealt with the environment. I hope the people who makes these issues realize that there should be en equal amount of all issue types, not just those dealing with economy and religion... :headbang:

Some of the economic issues do actually deal with the environment.

I don't think there should be. Real life governments don't see an equal balance, why should NS automatically have to do it? And I certainly haven't had a lack of environment ones nor a glut of religion ones.

Considering how new your nation is according to your join date (can't see how many days exactly you've been around since NS isn't working for me right now), I think you should wait a little longer before complaining about a lack of balance. There's over 190 issues, so you've only seen a small number of them.

Now I do hope it's possible to raise the spendings on the areas where your government currently spend ZERO. For the time I've been playing, the environmental spending have been ZERO and it haven't raised at any point. :mad: It's NOT OK that my national animal is about to be extinct... :)

Yes, it is possible to raise it. For a while, I spent nothing on the environment as well. Spending in areas usually will depend on what issues you get, just go with the environmentalist next chance you get. Don't worry about your animal going extinct, roast dwarf hamsters were on the brink of extinction in my nation for a while. I'm not sure you can even get below "teetering on the brink of extinction". If you don't want to worry about it, just let your people eat your national animal when that issue comes up, and you'll never have to hear how close to extinction they are.
