Not A Drop To Drink
NATIONSNAME has been hit with the worst drought in a hundred years; as a result, thirsty citizens and a growing number of brown lawns are pleading for a government response.
I’ve encountered with many choices
1. “We have no choice but to ration water,” says Josh Dredd, Chief of the CAPITAL Department of Public Works. “We can’t afford to let what little water we have slip through our fingers. We must clamp down on how much water each person is allowed to use. If our more wasteful citizens complain because they’ll have to actually think about how much water they pour down the drain, all the better for the rest of us.”
2. “You think too small,” sighs Foreign Secretary Megan Pushkin, between sips from a sparkling bottle of gourmet dihydrogen monoxide. “NATIONSNAME may be short on water, but the rest of The Galactic Federacy has water to spare! Why not just import the water from abroad? Sure, it’ll cost money, but what’s worth more to the people of NATIONSNAME, a little tax money or their most basic physical needs? Our neighbors wouldn’t dream of cutting off the water, right?”
3. “This drought is a warning sign sent by our Creator!” shouts a strangely familiar-looking man who has just walked in from the desert clad in camel hair and sandals. “If this nation will only turn from its wicked ways and hearken unto our God, surely He shall grace us with water once more!”
4. Dismiss the issue

Option 2. sounds good so I choose it.
The result saids ‘Almost all of NATIONSNAME’s water is piped into the country from abroad for exorbitant prices.‘
In result, my nation get a boost of this qualities.
