Imagine you are the ruler of a small island kingdom. Your people rely on a single businessman who has a monopoly over the supplies. However, troubling information has emerged that this businessman is dishonest. He cheats in weights and sometimes charges unfair prices, causing unrest among your subjects.
Now you find yourself faced with a difficult decision. If you punish the businessman for his actions, it will disrupt the supply chain, leaving your people without essential goods. Setting up alternative supply sources will take at least 15 days, and you lack the interest and necessary skills to manage the business of supplies yourself.
Consider the implications of your choices. Should you take action against the dishonest businessman, risking temporary scarcity and chaos? Or should you maintain the status quo, allowing the unfair practices to continue in order to ensure a steady flow of supplies to your kingdom? Think about the impact on the well-being of your people and the long-term consequences of your decision.
Reflect on your responsibilities as a ruler and the values that guide your leadership. What would you do in this situation, knowing that your choice will shape the livelihoods of your subjects?
