I remember reading one story where the city? State? of Duckburg basically just printed a massive bill worth something like 20 trillion and gave that to Scrooge and confiscated all his money to put it back into the economy. In the end Scrooge gets all his money back because everyone has so much money to spend and because he's the capitalist shitlord who basically has a monopoly on everything.

Then there was another story where the state? City of Duckburg was going bankrupt so they sold formely public spaces to individuals and everything was great because the private owners would keep their stuff clean and beat up hoodlums who tried to vandalise their streets and busses. More private property, that's the answer. :sadness-abysmal:

Anyway yeah the goth is Magica de Spell who is :anti-italian-action: and she's after Scrooge's Number One Dime, in order to be able to make an amulet that will give her the Midas Touch.

The Italian Donald Duck comics, especially the older ones were WILD

Scrooge is Donald's landlord and debtor and is constantly forcing him into slave labour and half the stories have him evicting Donald and the nephews

Also Donald just want to sleep and eat and forces his nephews to cook and clean under threat of corporal punishment
