'''Economy:''' Gorin's economy struggles as does its people. The oceans were once the backbone of the economy, providing food and rare minerals - the water itself had value. Today it is a mildly toxic soup that supports very little life. A few hardy hydroponic vegetable species are raised in huge plots next to platforms and any excess is exported off-world. These vegetables are the staple of the average Gorinite's diet. | '''Economy:''' Gorin's economy struggles as does its people.

Gorin's platform cities are host to several large corporations, mostly manufacturing plants that require huge amounts of water for cooling. In other parts of the galaxy, environmentalists tend to petition flagrant polluters. But on Gorin, the water is already polluted, so the locals don't really care what else is dumped into it.
