The following issue I am planning to submit, but I'd like a little feedback before doing so:
Title: Customer Rights Gone Too Far?
Description: After the @@NAME@@ Parliament passed a bill creating a Shopper's Bill of Rights, which makes long lines at supermarkets illegal, many are questioning consumer rights legislation.
Validity: Must have private enterprise
[option]"Look, I like fast shopping lanes as much as the next person," says area libertarian @@RANDOMNAME@@. "The point is that we simply don't have the right to use government to force others in the marketplace to make us happier. The free market ought to do that!"
[effect]corporate swindles are commonplace
[stats]happiness decreases, economy increases
[option]"Don't listen to that lummox," counters @@RANDOMNAME@@, leader of the Council for Making People in @@NAME@@ Happier. "Businesses ought to serve the people, and the government ought to ensure that they make us happy."
[effect]the government regulates how wide an employee's smile is
[stats]happiness increases, economy decreases, administration increases
[option]"Oi," replies @@RANDOMNAME@@, a local hippy and self-described "peacenik". "I've got an idea. Why not just ban all private industry? Equality for all, man!"
[effect]business owners are arrested by tie-dye-clad secret police
[stats]government size increases, economy decreases sharply, welfare increases
