The Return
This is an informational poll to determine when and if we should consider entering Democracy.
Democracy will give us:
1. Large drop in corruption
2. Increased worker speed(50%).
3. More commerce per tile.
4. Protection from propaganda.
5. A chance to stay in the tech race.
On the downside, it will:
1. Introduce war weariness
2. Force us to support our entire military with our treasury.
3. End martial law city bonus(happiness).
We have all 8 luxuries so happiness should be easy to regulate at the outset of Democracy. We also have Adam Smith's Trading Co. pays for maintenance of Markets, Banks and Harbors. We are also a scientific civ, meaning that we can build Libraries and Universities more cheaply. This could allow us to gain parity in the tech race.
There are a whole host of options that could be presented here(Republic, Communism), but to get the best idea I decided to keep it simple.
That said, should we:
1. Enter Democracy NOW
2. Enter Democracy within 10-20 turns
3. Never enter Democracy.
4. Abstain
Please vote your conscience. This poll will stay open for 72 hours.
