The government is now run more like a business as federal bankruptcy and the small corporate skirmishes of the early 21st century forced America to tighten its fiscal belt. Cuts and closings were prevalent among many national programs including welfare, social security, and foreign aid. For a while, however, one black hole remained that sucked money from the people - the prison system. Desperate plans called for desperate measures, and a plan was soon born to turn the prison system into at least a break even proposition - the Russian Roulette National Gaming System. With national gambling at an all time high, the plan was simple and foolproof. All national prisoners were offered a chance to be released, no matter what crime they committed or how long their sentence was. The catch was that they had to participate in a match of Russian Roulette along with 3 other convicts. The three losers die, the winner walks a free man. The games are broadcast on national television and all viewers are welcome to place bets during the event, with the government receiving their small house advantage, of course. As a home viewer, you get to watch the action of the Russian Roulette contests unfold as the prisoners participate in a desperate attempt at freedom. Place bets in the comfort of your own home and view along with your friends and family members. Let the games begin!
