Vincent SHOULD know better, and yet he's enjoying seeing the Barkeep riled up. The response from the other brings a dry and amused noise from the darker man. "Shin-Ra started as the Shinra Weapons manufacturing group. Energy and its production simply turned out to be more lucrative." He doesn't disagree with the other's assessment overall. "If anything, because of the wide breadth of the company's reach, it easily became a mega-corporation, and the president an autocrat."
"But it wasn't until they went into the energy business, that their reach was able to be expanded. They didn't stop with weapons, working on a private army--it's true. They also expanded into other areas, like space exploration, and the media. They built their own city which housed the headquarters and homes of its employees, known as Midgar."
Pausing for another drink, and a shrug. "To most people, Shin-Ra weren't the enemy however unless you had a resource they wanted and weren't willy to do 'business' the way they wanted. Most people's lives were made easier by the jobs brought when the company moved in, and the upgrade in lifestyles."
