A novel of subsidies, survival, and spectacular nonsense
Everyone in Burokratia agrees on one thing: the government's monthly handout of one hundred credits is a blessing. It feeds the hungry, fuels the economy, and keeps the people happy. It is the solution to every problem-except the problems it causes.
Everyone in Burokratia agrees on one thing: the government's monthly handout of one hundred credits is a blessing. It feeds the hungry, fuels the economy, and keeps the people happy. It is the solution to every problem-except the problems it causes.
Jonas can't remember what life was like before his hundred credits. Lena has rebuilt her business three times to keep it voucher compatible. Minister Halim insists the program is both temporary and eternal, affordable and unaffordable, a triumph and a disaster. And General Kravitz, commander of the Incentive Distribution Corps, explains with great seriousness that the subsidies must both continue and end immediately.
As businesses inflate, citizens invent creative new ways to qualify for aid, and neighboring nations scramble to copy the Miracle, the entire world begins to revolve around free credits. But when the government announces its boldest policy yet-Universal Happiness Vouchers-the question remains: can you really buy contentment with handouts, or is the nation simply laughing itself into collapse?
Darkly funny, painfully absurd, and uncomfortably familiar, The Hundred-Credit Miracle is a satire of politics, economics, and the strange, circular logic that governs modern life.
