After watching a movie with a name I can't seem to remember, along with the writing contest threads, I thought; What about an ISRP in which you act as head spokesman / Public Relations for a morally questionable company or industry, such as Big Tobacco?
I guess it's function similarly to that of a contest, primarily in the aspect of your writing being judged. Basically, this is just an RP to see if you're a decent enough writer to make Satan look like a pretty swell guy. (Not literally) |

| For my English tutoring I had to write an essay on someone who has been beneficial to America. The person didn't have to be an American. I said that Josef Stalin made significant contributions to "the development of highly mobile unstable nuclear reactors" and I'll get the paper back on Thursday. Count me the hell in. |

Alright, I'll probably start threads early June. In the meantime, think of some questionable industries; I'll probably allow one PR/thread per industry, and as of the moment, only tobacco and alcohol come to mind. Maybe firearms/weaponry? Anything the general public generally hates. |

Also Tim, that makes me think of a paper I had to do about the advantages of a dictatorship. Basically, the best I had said was that there was no military/political delay; Dictator says move out, so the army moves out. |

I support this 120%. Since 'murica loves our guns, firearms industry might not be viable depending on a few things, but here are some more! Company that wants to send people to space. Company that wants to make human-like robots. Company that wants to make a drone industry(think amazon delivery drones and the like). Company that wants to do stuff with genetics. The company which is subcontracted to make nuclear weapons. Any company that makes chemical and/or biological weapons. Basically any company which operates under a guise of openness and well-being but is actually very secretive and mistreats people(such as the livestock industry). Company that exports jobs to China or some other place where labor is cheap. Company that provides "law" services(PMCs and/or countries with privatized police).
So we've got stuff all over the place. |

| Chicken farming is horrible, and the way beef/pork/other meat is grown and processed should be included. :p |

I wouldn't mind doing the Livestock Industry. I know a bit about it, due to real life stuff. |
