Re: Actaea

The Issue

Qasardastan faces one of its most serious financial crises in history. Templia's stock market has been steadily falling for months, the markets are now divesting and a general sell out spree is feared by analysts.

The Debate

1."We've got to act decisively, and quickly," says Samuel Cruz, a columnist for the Financial Times. "Only a rush of public investment can save us from a depression. We need dams, roads, and absurdly large ships to inject new capital into the economy and put a bit of wind in the private sector's sails."

2."To spend government money saving unprofitable companies is ludicrous and in denial of the facts," objects Erica Rikkard, CFO of Chairs 'n' Stuff PLC. "They screwed up! They don't deserve to survive! What we need is a new round of tax breaks for the most effective enterprises, like good old Chairs 'n' Stuff - if you ever need your upholstery repaired, let us know won't you? Anyway, tax breaks will attract new investors and businesses. Trust me, large-scale investment in the middle of a recession is madness. We need to stop the deficit, not increase it."

3."Yes, let's just ignore the fact that thousands of people would lose their jobs while the remaining companies glorify in their newfound monopolies," snipes Marlon Longfellow, owner of an independent business. "The stock market's failing because it's abused and manipulated by greedy investors only out to make an easy profit. Who cares if you're lying and cheating to get it, right? Hmph! The financial market of Qasardastan's been riddled with insider trading and who knows what else for years! if the government doesn't put an end to it now then the economy will never bounce back."

4."It's not the corporations who are to blame! It's YOU," declares trade unionist Charles Goethe, pointing at you dramatically. "It's all of us. We've been indulging in a self-destructive economic system for too long, always taking and never giving back. Capitalism has failed. What we must do as concerned citizens is nationalise the entire economic infrastructure and control the inflation by giving the government authority to set commodity prices."

5."Deregulation isn't the problem - quite the opposite," suggests Rosalia Dubois, representative of a consortium of banks and major corporations. "Government checks and balances and competition laws have been the grasping stranglehold on the economy's throat for far too long. Do you really think corporations would allow the economy to suffer like this if it had full control? No, it would not. It is bad for business and what's bad for business needs to be removed. If you want this nation to survive, the market must be freed from these shackles."
Помогите, знатоки, увидеть какой-нибудь намек и подвох в этих вариантах. Ну или просто суть понять точнее.
Насколько я понял, первый предлагает государству потратить уйму средств и финансов для спасения экономики. Небось взлетят налоги.
Второй предлагает снизить налоги и не поддерживать разваливающиеся бизнеса, что приведет к безработице и монополиям на рынке, так ведь?
Третий я сейчас выбрал, но вообще не понимаю, о чем там идет речь и какие последствия могут быть, хотя вроде пишут здраво.
Четвертый навернуть социализм, пятый похож на второй видимо, отдать все монополиям и корпорациям, верно?
В общем, поясните хотя бы за третий вариант, а по желанию за первый и второй, не совсем их понимаю.
