Unions are part of a healthy market economy. The succesful suppression of unions is a market failure.

“ create a single government agency that provides support to the rest of the government. Might easily lose efficiency, as any other bureaucracy”. As opposed to huge corporations th…

Sounds like every other successful studio. On the contrary (to making this a bad thing) - they managed to pivot engine twice and ship without tanking.

(1) “American economists” only. (2)Also I am sure looking at the political/institutional affiliations of the responders would be interesting. (3) The responders comments show very …

The tone/“atmosphere” of DK1 is very strong and the gameplay high-stakes/visceral. (Like the previous Magic Carpet games). DK2 went a more stylized, silly and cartoony direction - …
