>>Why on God's green earth would a Corp. make it illegal for Non-Corp.
>>employees use its Corp. Scrip?
First of all, at least in the USA, it is illegal for anyone other than the
goverment to print money. I don't know if this applies to the UCAS, but I would
think it would. Corporate Scrips is allowed in the USA, but only for use inside
of a company.
Secondly, you don't want people outside of the corporation using your scrip
because it cost you money! As you said the company charges twice the cost of
production in scrip while it charges three times the cost of production in
regular money types. If you let people outside of the corp use scrip you are
in effect giving them the 33% discount you give corp employees who are given
Corp Scrip instead of cash discounts. Make those people outside of the corp pay
in gold, which money stands in for.
