PLAYTHINGS OF THE GODS
You can also now afford to do nice things every once and a while to make people like you such asgiving free water to starving poor people who can't afford to pay you - but just enough to barely keepthem alive.
Also, you may want to consider your faithful employees. Of course, you will have trained securitypeople to watch them and make sure they remain faithful.
