That's a list of programs the Black Panthers used to run. Quite a few of these were free, classes were also taught and I believe they were somewhat effective in increasing literacy.

What if there were a new Liberal activism activity, such as organizing community outreach porgrams and such. Unlike Volunteering, this would raise public opinion of the LCS while also garnering a little heat as well (seeing a terrorist organization forming outreach programs and such), but with a heat cap.

Liberals who are good at teaching would essentially be performing the train liberals action, but more expensively (requires more administration work, pamphlets, giving out freefood, etc.). The activity would train business and teaching, I think.

TL;DR: Amped up version of community service that generates a capped amount of heat and costs money, trains business and teaching.

I suggest that we add a clause permitting the keelhauling of anyone who suggests a plan involving "zombify the crew".

You had almost the exact same title, too.

This is way overzealous thread policing.

1. That was a year and a half ago.
2. That wasn't the same conversation.

Despite the similar name, the previous thread was about a gameplay conduct, while this thread is a feature suggestion. Not only that, tenmillimaster posted a link I've never seen before that is quite interesting and thought-provoking. Cool!
