Proposal to e-Liverpool citizens, especially wealthy ones and company owners (who should be most interested)..
The wellness of workers has huge impact on their productivity, so I thought it could be good to have charity activity in our region. As we live in nearly utopia system, where we have no tax for companies nor houses set by mayor, I'm asking you to donate small (or big) amounts of GBP (from time to time) to e-Liverpool.
Out of collected funds I'll buy gifts and will give out them to those active (but low wellness) citizens (working and training) who will apply for gifts by PMing me every weekend (from Friday to Sunday).
By starting this program we also strengthen our region in case of war... also money can be saved for our region to upgrade hospital later.
It's already started by the way, just in small quantities cause I'm gifting "ill" citizens from my own funds which are not too high...
Thank you all in advance.
Mayor of e-Liverpool,

P.S. for those who are just starting to get on their feet, please do not rob yourselves, and don't donate your last money 😉

Interesting move...
very interesting!
nice idea Benskius. I think that it isn\'t right that mayors shoulld buy gifts from their own funds as that means only the rich could prosper in elections by \'buying\'votes. I am intending to post a request on the regional council (as soon as we have a president) that would enable us to have a collective pool of money for mayors to gift wellness. But I think your point about wellness increasing production of workers is a good one that is often missed. Socially responsible busnesses (ie those with sense) will see the wisdom in your proposal. Good luck.
Can you take money from out of the city\'s accounts to pay for the gifts?
I was under the impression that a mayor couldn\'t...
It\'s possible it\'s just a real pain in the arse to do.
@Sima Yi - maybe you can explain how?
Exchange Market. It\'s complicated but you post an offer with one account and buy it with the other. Is the only way I can put it.
hm.. thanks, but it\'s a bit risky...
Thus why it\'s a pain 😛
Alternatively we could donate money directly to you?
I don\'t mind doing it that way.
