"Those who begin coercive elimination of dissent soon find themselves exterminating dissenters. Compulsory unification of opinion achieves only the unanimity of the graveyard. . . But freedom to differ is not limited to things that do not matter much. That would be a mere shadow of freedom. The test of its substance is the right to differ as to things that touch the heart of the existing order."- Justice Robert Jackson WV SBE v Barnettehttp://tinyurl.com/bx359q5

Vicky II is a ridiculously good game and you all should get it. Turning Russia or the Ottoman Empire into the world's beacon of liberal democracy is pretty fun. I tried to get into it but the hilariously broken economic engine and all the other little unrealistic quirks (like apparently you can have a population in the multi-billions with full UHC) were a bit too much for me. Well the thing about any paradox game is that they basically don't fix some of the ridiculous issues in them until they've been out for a year. You're right about the economic system, if you stick with Laizze-Faire before you've used the government to build up industry then you will never get anything but vastly unprofitable explosives and fertilizer factories. But even with the warts its by far the best of its genre. Well I mean it's *start a game as Russia* *CAPITALISTS OPEN 300 GLASS FACTORIES* *300 GLASS FACTORIES GO BANKRUPT* *CAPITALISTS OPEN 300 GLASS FACTORIES* *repeat*

Actually, they've just patched it to boost Laizze-Faire but it still only works if you use the government to build up actually decent industries first or are a powerhouse like the US.

Is it too much to ask that the capitalists respond to price signals and supply and demand? I can't imagine that would be *too* hard, at least conceptually, to implement, considering that there are only a few dozen commodities to trade.
