Good Cause Simulator: BARiTONES (saturday)

[idolpro]

[ You’re in a sleek room full of all kinds of sci-fi dials and knobs. You feel like you’ve been here a long time with these people around you, and that you have a lot longer to go before this is all over.

You can hear the distant sounds of the station creaking due to shockwaves from the fighting outside. What is going on in this galaxy? Well, it’s not very important to you. What’s important is surviving.

You have a job to do. ]

It is how a government runs. A portion of the people's wealth is taxed, and the government allocates those finances to paying civil servants and doing civil works.

Thus is the ideal at any rate, in a world without corruption that relies on money and finance to run, which I've never seen both in conjunction.
