*Allows you to use the *print money* edict as often as you want. After the 5th use of *print money,* Entertainment prices and wages get a price floor of +1 every use(in addition to the already set % increase in costs). So, on the 6th time, the price of a restaurant visit can go no lower than 2, and wages can be set no lower than 2. On the 10th use, wages and entertainment visits can go no lower than 5 - and so on.
*Allows you to buy treasuries from US, Russia, China, or Middle East. Buying them improves relations with the target 'country,' and will provide a small amount of income from the interest(more interest the more you buy)
*Employs 4 Professors

Settings:

*Chicago or Bust: Removes a small % from your treasury every month, but reduces the cost of construction, edicts, and upkeep over time; this is useful after a bout of inflation from using the print money edict, which drastically increases prices
*Bernanke in Charge: Adds a small amount of money to your treasury every month, but increases the cost of construction, edicts, and upkeep over time; useful if your island is constantly on the brink of deficit
*Banana Republic: Adds a large amount of money to your treasury, but rapidly increases the cost of construction, edicts, and upkeep over time
*Austerity Mode: Sells off all treasury holdings and reimburses (1/2) their value and removes a large amt of money from your treasury per month, but rapidly decreases the cost of construction, edicts, and upkeep over time, and establishes a 15$ price floor for all entertainment visits


...Also:


Edicts:

Women's Lib

Allows women to work as teamsters, attendants, and to serve in the army

Angers religious faction

Slows population growth too. But increases spending on housing (dual income?).

On the women;s lib edict? Yea. I suppose you could give it more or less the opposite pop growth effect as contraception ban, so the draconian presidente could cancel out the negative effect with a little religious anti-wrapping-it-up fundamentalism.
