The IF should be transformed into a sovereign wealth fund into which the government can invest aswell as take money.... pensions should be given a purpose or just done away with... thoughts?

change the amount seniors get for a pension to more or less. that would give it a use and it could be a new factor in your welfare, the more you give seniors for pension the more your welfare is affected and vice versa and obviously it would affect your economy too.

The IF should not be a piggy bank for the government. It is interesting in its role as a private investment entity for workers and some players, including I, enjoy the aspects of managing the fund without trivializing it by allowing unlimited transfers with government funds.

I have suggested a limited transfer ability to help funds get started though. Something like allowing a government transfer to increase the fund to a maximum value of $2T.

trivializing it? i dont see how it could be anymore trivialized considering the miniscuality of the returns.... already players can manipulate the IF to their liking so long as they have 2 countries or a CEO or *gasp* a multi account..... what im saying is the exact oppiosite.... give the IF an important meaningful place in the game.... i still really dont see the point of a pension

Running multiple countries or the addition of running a CEO is not trivial. With smart management, you can see a gradual rise of value of your funds over several weeks time. Not to mention the additional account costs of a CEO or the additional considerations of having additional countries (such as considering defenses or watching your war level).

Raiding a few countries in twenty minutes and injecting trillions into your investment funds is trivial. I do not see the comparison. Perhaps you can explain.
