  • The really small detail that I liked was how the introduction of automation rose unemployment. This actually reflects on what Marx stated that as technology increases efficiency the average person will become liberated from needing to work to survive to working as a bonus. As such, not everyone will choose to and the game reflected that. A small detail but a cool one!

If the US increases taxes the rest of the world will follow. Currently countries don't implement socialist policies even if they would like to for fear of a US backlash in the form of a sponsored coup, economic isolation, invasion etc.
