It's REAL easy to create a metropolis that borders on eden. Everyone is happy, business is booming, and there's plenty of beds at the hospital waiting to take care of any sick person walking in (even if the entirety of the multi-million population were to get sick). Unfortunately, America (and the rest of the world) is not in "God Mode." We cannot just keep throwing money at dying industries without consequence. Yeah, Biotech is a good thing and pretty damned important in maintaining a healthy population and moving to eradicate as of yet prevailing diseases. But, as many peoples Dads have said, "Money doesn't grow on trees." So where is all this bailout money coming from? What else are we sacrificing to keep certain industries afloat (industries that will not die despite major companies going under and closing. Companies that otherwise WOULD be replaced by new upstarts.)? Have you ever played games such as SIM city with a cheat code enabled that gives you infinite sums of money?
