Cooperative Commonwealth (NO UPDATES)

@Plexus they also get to tax workers at those cooperatives at an increased rate due to higher wages among workers individually themselves.

It is still a work in progress.

Hey Plexus! Unfortunately I will no longer be able to edit this mod. I am not sure what is wrong with my computer, but I can no longer edit or create mods. I do not know how to fix this...

I really like the spirit of this mod, although I still find it overpowered. I think motivating cooperatives would increase the GDP, but not necessarily make money. The government wouldn't make income off of a worker-owned cooperative, they would only make money from the taxes that cooperative pays (reflected through a higher GDP)

I'd also like to amend the cooperative transport policy, since creating new bus companies has every chance of oversaturating public transport. What cooperatives could really change is decentralised transit. I'd like to propose the policy be turned into:

the Decentralised Transit Cooperative Board
A nationwide set of government boards which aim to begin transit cooperatives offering local delivery and private cab services. The board would encourage the use of e-bikes and cargo bikes for delivery and electric vehicles for cabs allowing green decentralised transit from people living in the areas being served.

Pretty neat mod. All I'd change is purely cosmetic stuff like spruced up descriptions and maybe not naming everything as a 'fund'. They would be functioning more like government grants.

c_vld_c Hey there,
I adjusted some of the impacts; I agree that it is a bit overpowered. Regarding the other portion of your comment: I want to do something like that, but I do not have the time. That would be a mod that I would do after this semester. I am graduating so I am very focused on school right now. I really appreciate the recommendation.

An ideea: a Co-op percentage stat (simulation value), that tells you the percentage of Co-op businesses in your country. You could have that influence things like GDP, working week and equality, instead of the policies doing that directly? As they are right now, the policies feel a little too strong. You could then use that value to trigger a perk, like "Cooperative country" or something, when it goes above 80% and have that grant a large large happiness or income boost to everyone. Just an idea.

@jaers454 Good luck with your studies man

Hi @c_vld_c I am really happy you enjoy this! I will be honest, I have no idea how to do that. I can try to figure it out, but I am in the middle of a semester so I am pretty swamped.

Really love the mod, but any chance you can make the icons white when playing in dark mode?
