It’s games like that which give me hope in the next generation. You can’t do all that “merit” and free trade without some of it rubbing off on your worldview.
They’re just games, but it seems the closer they resemble real life the more fun and popular they become. Eve is from Iceland and has more of an anti-business/euro-socialist slant, but Elite-dangerous is from the UK and my bet a lot of the content comes from folks that voted for Thatcher.
