Not all NS nations observe Daylight savings time.

I'm thinking there should be an economical decrease with the first option caused by the mass unemployments.

no, there shouldn't be an economic decrease. the big companies would still come out on top. maybe social inequality could go up.

it should be "spokesperson," not "spokes person"

I'm thinking there should be an economical decrease with the first option caused by the mass unemployments.

Not really, people we try and make sure they get to work on time or even early to make sure they are not fired.

Changed it from Gulags to Forced Labour Camps as Gulags was generally the term used in the USSR.

I tweaked the punctuation and spelling for you.

Thanks :) .

But for the 3rd one, it meant "on spot firings" as from being fired from Job, not death squads :p

Corrected, I assumed you meant on the spot shootings ;) .

When we will find out if the moderator likes this enough to put it as an issue :)

I said, changed "forgot to set their clocks forward after Daylight savings" to simply "were late for work". not all NS nations use daylight savings time.

That destorys the humour of it.

Well we will find out if the moderator likes this enough to put it as an issue :)
