- This is dumb. The government does thousands of disparate things every day. It's thousands on thousands of people. Having the government chase single issues as a whole would be asinine, ineffective, and the definition of bad government.
  Secondly, the radicalization of our citizenry into authoritative tendencies is one of the most pressing issues we are facing. I'm not sure a video game is going to be the solve, but I'm happy to see the government support the arts regardless.
