Cool. Of course the green shirt would be identical to Biohazard's GEO green
tee.

For GEO Peacekeepers, I go with green/white color schemes.

For ERT, orange jumpsuits with green/white jackets or vests.

I'd say fairly conservative business suits a la human civillian outfits in
"Babylon 5" - long pants, vest and suit jacket, NO TIES (ties will go out of
fashion this century, trust me).

Subject:	[BLUE PLANET] - the ultimate power of the Incorporates

thinking about the power of the Incorp states recently, I was wondering 
just how any other kind of businesses stay afloat. There is a reason that 
America introduced antitrust laws and monopoly restrictions. Now the Incorp 
states don't really have to worry about that, how does Joe's Pretty Good 
Auto Shop stay in business and not get bought out by Atlas Material's Damn 
Good Auto Shop?

It can't be just PR, because that can be escaped easily enough by just 
owning everything or keeping your ownership on the down-low. The only thing 
I can think of is political laws passed by Independent States and GEO to 
prevent anything except obvious and controlled Incorporate growth, at least 
within the borders of another member state (which reminds me, all 
Incorporate land is "extra-national" and sovereign, including their stores, 
right?). There would also be some pretty darn complicated "price fixing" or 
much of an Independent's economy could get smacked around by an uppity 
Incorp state.

I'm not an economics expert here, which is why I'm asking.
