Commies

Commies OXP

Communism is the state in which people work for the betterment of all, not for personal acquisition and advancement. Many communist worlds are economic powerhouses in which all citizens are employed by the state in farms or factories to fuel the economy, even convicted criminals are put to useful labour in the Asteroid Mines. Unlike other systems, communist planets communicate freely with each other, exchanging technology and resources. It is for this reason that many unique space stations and ship may be found, such as the Solar Laboratory And Production Unit (SLAPU), the Collective Zero Gravity Factory, the Worker's Commuter transport ship, the Commissariat Limousine and the Ray Police Cruiser. Communist states dislike the corrupting influence of other commercialistic governments, even to the point that they insist that GalCop have only a minimal presence in their spacelanes. It is the role of the People's Police and the Thought Police to patrol these regions, in their unique Ray Mark One police ships.
