Government Income:
The government gains most of its income through taxes. Taxes are applied differently depending on seven broad brackets of income, and depending on whether it is an incorporated entity or an individual. The brackets and tax rates of corporations are wider and lower than those of individuals. More information may be found in this
Google Doc, containing graphs and charts of taxes and income. Some income is obtained through foreign or domestic investments, and a negligible portion is obtained from fees and fines.

Puppet corp: 2 He has to either pay ₩ 12000 in lawyers fees (99% success rate) or try it himself and only pay ₩ 1000 in paperwork (26% success rate). Choose which one to do. This does not count as an action next turn.

Other Specify what part of law to research.5-3 Unaffiliated politicians are very impeded in their ability to gain contributions. Yan is a party political system. Still, unaffiliated politicians often have a strong, loyal, and small base. He gains
₩ 5000 in pledges.
Betacrats are the absolute majority, having 46.1% of the seats in the Assembly. They are a conservative party. Yan is traditionally a conservative nation, and the elders often just pick whoever's from the Betacrat party. As a direct result, the younger people of Yan dislike the Betacrats in general.
Techdemocrats take 33.5% of the Assembly. They are a slightly less conservative party and the only real force to stand against the Betacrats, along with the Alphacrats, who are 12.8% of the Assembly. They are often viewed as the Good against the Evil Conservatives and thus have a substantial standing.
Fembots and Goblins are radical groups whose fanatic policies and laws have attracted a tiny following.
Unaffiliated Assembly members take up 1.4% of the Assembly.

Diamond Party polls public opinion.
4The nation is running more or less well.
The economy is ok.
Inflation is low.
The Assembly is corrupt as always, but not as corrupt as the legendary dictator General Pancake's reign.
The big corporations oppress the little corporations and the people, but the nation does nothing about it. Must be because the nation is taking implicit bribes from the CEOs.
Prices are a bit high.
The nation is safe.
The neighbors up north are quiet.
The nation has recently launched a rocket, the first venture into space! Happy!
The Diamond Party? Who's that?

Finalize your actions, for those who need additional input, like what to research, to choose a lawyer or not...
Also, prepare a bill if you wish to do so. Specify who you want to target for your speech. Remember that targeting a different party gives you a penalty to your speech.
Betacrat -> anyone = -3
Alphacrat -> anyone except Betacrats = -2, Betacrats -3
Techdemocrat -> anyone = -2
Unaffiliated/Other -> anyone except Betacrats = -0, Betacrats -1
You can see that everyone hates the Betacrats, and the Betacrats hate everyone back. But the Betacrats also have a 46.2% majority.
Unaffiliated/Other parties have low penalties for talking to other parties.
This penalty stacks on top of a "reasonability" penalty. A bill to construct a Yanian Death Star would be -6, while a bill to raise corporate taxes overall by 0.5% could be -3. A -1 would be "raise Assembly salary by 10%."
