- | The decision taken by the Dormond Government to privatise 25% of [[Carops Oil]] | + | The decision taken by the Dormond Government to privatise 25% of [[Carops Oil]] provoked a symbolic backlash from the Pontanore public, which demonstrates the support for nationalised public industries that is felt throughout the Pontanore. There are six major industries in which State-Owned ventures have a total monopoly. The Pontanore operates a State-Owned railway system, airline, energy company, shipping company, postal service, and pharmacy. [[The State Dispensory of the Pontanore]] is the Pontanore's state-owned chain of chemist stores. Opposition to privatisation lies in the fact that Pontanore citizens expect the high levels of service provided by these state-run ventures, and consider their taxes to be useful in paying for them. Recent attempts by politicians on the political right to pass laws selling off [[Pontanore Airlines]] resulted in the headline "Criminals!" in [[Eda Lampasarrra]], the Pontanore's leading left-wing daily. Careers are often ended by talk of privatisation. |
