I think what he means is that CEO's can afford the faith healers whose hands are personally guided by god.

[Rezan]

Wouldn't there also be psychiatrists/psychologists at a hospital? They'd have a boost to intelligence and charisma, not to mention interrogation. Plus they could be either conservative, moderate or liberal. They're in all flavours!

Most certainly wouldn't mind one type of person with interrogation qualifications you could just talk into joining. Pardon my language, but turning agents is a bitch.

[Servant Corps]

beorn: Er. No. I did mean have the CEOes be the faith healers. Your idea works fine too, I guess.

Do want!

Heh. On the subject of having trouble turning people, I had a News Anchor in the current version resist something like 2 months of $100 dollar dates plus 2 week-long vacations before finally succumbing to one last week-long vacation with my 15 Cha, 17 Heart, 14 Seduction Liberal Guardian prostitute. That was... tiresome. I'm still not sure how I resisted the impulse to just kidnap them; I think after 2-3 weeks it was mostly incredulity that they'd neither broke it off nor succumbed, coupled with curiosity as to how much longer it could keep going.

More suggestions.

Plastic Surgery: You would be able to pay a relatively large sum of money to change your face and get a new ID in order to lose whatever heat is on you.

Sedatives: When someone is hit with one; they are knocked out cold. Turns into a syringe after successful use. Would be "powered" by Improv Melee.

Organ Theft: We all know Conservative Scumbags would steal poor people's organs for their own use in a C+ society; why not include it? There could be doctor and surgeon reports where the use of stolen/purchased organs is documented; not to mention the possibility of stealing Conservative Hostages' organs to replace bad ones in your own people if your First Aid skill is high enough.

Blood Packs: An item that would let you heal a bit of blood-loss (as in, fix your status a little) provided you have a person with high First Aid and aren't in combat.

McLiberal's heart has been blasted!

McLiberal asks quietly for coffee.

McDoctorLiberal shoots Security Guard in the head BLOWING IT OFF!

Security Guard reaches once where there is no head, and falls.

McDoctorLiberal pulls out a knife.

McDoctorLiberal begins taking out the still beating-heart from Security Guard's chest.

Working with Liberal speed, he transplants the newly liberated heart into McLiberal.

McLiberal's now-Liberal donor heart begins to function and the Liberal rises!

[Rezan]

Exactly! That'd be great!

I see your point; though. I still think it would make for a good part of C+ society (faith healers really doesn't strike me as all that conservative; stealing poor people's organs for personal gain however, does).

Though that idea might be a bit hopeless, I think sedatives and plastic surgery would make for cool additions.

That is insane on so many different levels.  Insanely awesome!  But, it needs more socialism.

[Jetman123]

Make sure Liberals can "liberate" organs too to sell on the black market, or replace busted organs.

Hell, even at the safehouse people with damaged organs (except i.e the kidneys since you can survive with one) should lose health slowly. You should either have to send them to the clinic, have someone heal the body part, or, if its damaged bad enough, you either have to a. Wait longer in the hospital for a donor organ or b. "Liberate" some Conservative organs.

If your doctor is REALLY skilled in first aid he/she should be able to perform on-the-spot transplants from recently deceased enemies.

And you should be able to recover Conservative corpses for body parts.

I've got it. Donating Conservative organs to charity.

[Servant Corps]

Actually, I heard of various radical religious traditions which state that organ donation is actually bad because you're basically tearing parts of the human body apart after a person is dead rather than bury a person's body totally intact as tradition states it.

So, er, in favor of religious conservativism, I like that more.

[Rezan]

Religion is in my opinion less evil and conservative than organ theft. It doesn't get more dubious and conservative than that. Religion, sure, it's kind of conservative, but in the end it's just stupid. In any case, religion is if anything riddled with hypocrisy, hence the "only rich people get organs" bit.

Oh, and so you know... Organ harvesting is done while the person is still alive. Preferably in a tub of ice. They might wake up wishing they were dead, though, if that counts.

[Servant Corps]

You gotta realize what 'Conservativism' is, it is the idea of conserving the traditions of the past. Hence, religious conservatisim desires to conserve and protect the religious traditions of the past.

There are different brands of conservativism, altough the LCS wouldn't know of it. We got the Brukians, the Borkians, the neo-conservatives, the supporters of Ron Paul, anti-globlization supporters, Goldwaterites, etc. They're just as divided as Liberals are.

[Jonathan S. Fox]

Liberals are babies that are mad because their parents won't change their diapers unless they're dirty. According to the Liberal babies, their diapers are crinkly, noisy, uncomfortable, itchy, etc.

Conservatives are babies that are mad because their parents will change their diapers when they're dirty. According to the Conservative babies, the current diapers are familiar, tried and true, dependable, have sentimental value, etc.

In Liberal Crime Squad, the babies start shooting each other.
