I don't have any Youth Rebelliousness because we stopped making cars in my nation so they can't steal them :D
Doomonkey:
Got a new issue where I get to choose between the following:
 - Make people get outrageous compensation for accidents and also super-regulate corporations
 - Give money to corporations
 - Kill corporations

I suppose I am going to have to give money to corporations.

The Issue

A recent article in The New Irajinia City Naysayer has exposed a dirty little secret: prison wardens have been quietly selling the organs from executed criminals and pocketing the proceeds. Enraged citizens, particularly victim's rights organizations, demand retribution.

The Debate

"These murderers took away took away our families and our futures", cries Victims of Violence chapter head Johann McKay, holding a black-draped family photo. "The court ordered restitution, but most criminals have no money. These wardens are stealing the only thing of value these criminals still have: their organs! Give surviving family members the remuneration from these sales. It's the very least you can do after all we've suffered."


"We have also lost family to murders and nothing will bring them back to our loving arms", weeps Ariel Chandra, a member of Victims for a Just Society. "Monetary reimbursement can't replace what we have lost, but perhaps others can benefit from our loss. We must expand the list of capital crimes to discourage criminals from committing any crimes at all, while providing a substantial source of new organs to our hospitals. Criminals can repay society by helping the ailing victims of organ failure. Let transplant survivors be our memorial!"


A serene voice from the back commands the crowd's attention. "My children, we cannot relieve violence with violence", intones Kathleen Love, Roshi of New Irajinia City Zendo, sitting zazen. "The solution lies not with taming corrupt officials, but within ourselves. We should not be killing these criminals; we should be leading them. Our prisons should hire counsellors and sensei to guide them to a better path of penance and good works. Prisoners can return life with life by tending our crops and feeding the hungry. We must end capital punishment, for the betterment of our own inner light. Only then will we truly find peace."
