Oh yeah, didn't you get the memo from the fine text in the manual I sent you in the mail you never recieved? Mine does have money, what would be the point of having multiple factions/different resources/marketplaces (oops! There goes the cat. Now what am I gonna put in this bag...) if you don't have currency? As for 'more power to the people', that's what the poll is for; they get options on what to do. You haven't even given them any meaningful options yet, you're trying to make some kind of main menu out of the poll system.
As for the wiki helping people, it would be more helpful if you took a sledgehammer and applied it to their heads. They'd end up with more knowledge about how to make a Let's Build thread than by reading the wiki.
