If its wrong place for this question, then I am sorry
Could someone PLEASE tell which option in which issue results in "Following new legislation in @NATIONNAME@, corporations are either above the law or corrupting it." I've got it like ten times. But since id don't log in every day, and have 5 issues to answer how can i rember every one? Same question for "the public health bureaucracy is wrapped in miles of red tape"
Which raises another question - why are all option so unclear? Its like you have no power over legislative, even as dictator, such as when "OPTION: If drunk drivers take peoples life, we must take theirs!" - results in... killing all drivers just for being drunk, even if the didn' harmed anybody - you wanted some justice, but suddenly become leader of fascist state - paranoia.

The Issue
As the nation's unemployment rate skyrockets, citizens have staged a massive protest against corporations outsourcing jobs to poorer nations to take advantage of the lax regulations and cheap labour.
(...)
3. "The only reason that companies are so unwilling to stay here is because of the constricting regulations," says @@RANDOMNAME@@, a ridiculously wealthy businessman. "Every time my company tries to make a decision, we run up against about a million laws forbidding us from our ventures. Since when has making money been a crime? Allow more economic freedom and companies will be simply flocking to this country. The workers will suffer a bit from losing minimum wage laws, of course, but that's progress for you."
Oh. I fail to see why less economical restrictions results in corporation being above the law, or corrupting it - quite the contrary - less restriction mean corporations may operate WITHIN the law. If something not forbidded, its allowed, is it not?

If "Nationstates Issues" Topic got spoiler alert anyway, why not add results of players choices?
