Which is why AA lowkey roasts it at the start of the video LOL

Government grant guy must just look at the requests for solar grants like “yeah an eco efficient wind/solar powered field of nothing, taxpayers will sure like this”
Sounds like a joke, but isnt that basically 90% of anything economy based politics these days? Taxpayer money usually ends up in dumb bs. Literally any government has this issue, someone higher up just spends a ton of money on absolute trash.
Considering the wide variety of things tax money is spent on, I'd say producing green energy is one of the best possibilities. Government grant guy is doing great
Imagine giving out a grant for a prison, then checking in on the place to find a tax dodging green energy plant that is highly lucrative despite a quarter million bank loan.
One guy plants the trees, another guy cuts them down, and a third guy takes the vast majority of the money from the sale of lumber. Gotta love that medieval-style economy we still use for some reason!

I started watching your long Zomboid videos about 2 years ago and I'm amazed how much this channel and your style and skill has grown. The editing, the shtick, the concise but entertaining videos; it's *chef's kiss*. You've honed a very unique presentation and personality for your videos and I love it.
I love your style of editing and commentary, man. It's always a joy to watch, no matter the game, and often feels like an experience, not just a video.
I like how you took the Amazon strategy to your employee. Better wages? Nah. Better working conditions? Heck no! Your worker just needed a room to have a mental breakdown in. And by golly you gave it to him. I salute you.
"How can I start with literally nothing and get myself into a positive feedback loop of using borrowed money to borrow more money infinitely until I hit a ceiling and the bubble pops?" Prison Architect became Global Financial System Architect real fast.

@@ambiguousamphibian Yeah I was running real low on cash as well and I noticed you could sell the logs, and was selling them individually exactly how you were, but thought to myself "There has got to be a better way to do this, this is agonizing" and looked it up lmao

I usually have a full roaster of staff, so workmen usually don't have to do any of that.

okay so, with cell quality being added so long ago, I came up with an interesting mod idea - Someone could likely convert Prison Architect into Hotel Architect, with prisoners sentences being converted into short "hotel days".
As working in a state prison for over 10 years I will say that Admin staff would angrily pace around woth clip boards and some how got congratulated by the commissioner and promoted for line staff doing all the work to make things happen. Pretty solid take on the government
you only need 6 (or was it 7?) of the hybrid wind, solar energy thing to fully cap electric export for a day if you completed all the award/grant thingy for green incentive
