We Could Own it All! Z3R0
Why can we own so few things in Bootleggers?

If think about it half of the things that it would be feasible to own in this game are not able to be player operated.

Jails
This was covered in the last issue of the buzz, which is partly where I got my idea so I wont type this one out, feel free to look at sassowned's article at: http://www.bootleggers.us/buzz/index.php?view=568

Shooting Range
Again, similar to the hospital setup, you get the money that people pay for training their gun skill and you have to pay maintainable costs (ect.) for your shooting range.

Bootlegging
This is another thing that could easily be owned. Owners could buy their booze from various providers and sell it at whichever price they wish (but they would also be forced to buy from users even if they didn't want to so that it again wouldn't be a profit only situation)

Federal Bank
This is not really feasible as a bank owner would have to be stupidly rich to be able to pay out interest to users.

Swiss Bank
This could be feasible, but the swiss bank is unused at present and I doubt the concept of someone else getting your 30% interest instead of it being taken out of the game is going to spark interest.

I hope you enjoyed reading my first attempt at a Buzz article.
