That Morale bonus probalby won't be as important as you think it will. industrial projects are already pretty expensive and in some cases can take a long time to finish. It's just better to do projects that give big amount of Morale at once.
How about a comprimise then? Something that not only offers similar beneftis but also prevents say monopolists from having too much influence. We've seen in the real world how badly things can go if industrialists and monopolists have too much power so rather we at the least mitigate those issues.

There is Write-In Option that QM left us, but I have no idea what to write.
 
Also this is now my fifth omake in a row, so someone else can do the next one. I'm going to go relax.
If I can think of an idea, I'll write one. ATM all that comes to mind is the very... peculiar inquisitor I rolled using the 1d4chan inquisitor table doing inquisitor things. Which I'm not sure how interesting I can make that.

This will make a big difrence in Industrial projects, this is gamechanger for me that will make a lot of our troubles go away.

I will also start working on Anti-Exploitation Measures next turn, if anyone is worried about that.

E: I changed to a narrative vote here. Instead of mechanical. (I really Dislike the 1 extra People cost, But for mechanical beniefts we can use the 1 morale to do the last 20% of a project, which we would then gain 1 morale (there probably be narrative Negatives by doing that to much though))

Confiscating suspect money seems way too abusable, but we do need to be able to prevent a suspect disappearing with all their money.

That "can spend 1 morale for 20% progress" sounds like something that could lead to some real bad stuff if abused, but so could massive corporations, so we should probably try to balance the two. I'm not quite sure how we should make sure the viable requirement for interest-free loans is judged fairly, but I'm thinking a low general standard of just 'is this plausibly profitable' and a cap on loan size to discourage abusing them. Balancing the taxes so we don't lose any total tax income should be easy enough, though the ratio will need to be regularly updated based on market trends. Probably less practical than the other options but will hopefully mean better conditions.
Not sure, but maybe the boni could be something like this?
-5% Progress cost to all Industry Actions, remove money cost/per turn, can exchange material cost with monetary expenses. +1 Morale to all finished Industrial Actions, +1 People cost per Industrial Action/Stage
Hey @HeroCooky waht do you think about this ?
That would be a Law write-in for later.
The vote is not about how the government regulates and shapes the economy, but by what it is driven. The people at large at one end, with a few drivers at the other.

I don't think binding request for explanation is very good at preventing or finding out about suspect money. One is because it doesn't really have any weight behind it, they could have any explanation they want and then just keep doing it but sneakier. Their explanation doesn't really have to even explain it either and if you receive a warning every-time you are being shady then you have a warning and can quickly move the money to a safe place or be more shady. It similar to subpoena with congress you technically have to show up but without any force behind them or punishment a lot are not showing up.

I'm not even suprised that this won.

*Insert large amount of Salt here*

Alright I'm cool now.

I probably will end up spending this extra Morale to speed up construction to offset People cost.
 
For real, the point of the quest is to make a world that is actually a good place to live. It seems like it just makes sense that people prefer lore votes that accomplish. Especially since it's counter to how the rest of the Imperium tends to pick production and industry over the well being of the people.
