If the rules are broken, action will be taken. Shep is very serious about his laws.

If a rule is broken, a punishment will be dished out. The severity of the punishment varies on the rule that was broken. The death penalty will never be used, however, Shep thinks it's inhumane to use the death penalty.

Elections don't exist in this island. Shep will always be the leader until he dies. Leadership will be passed down by Shep when the time comes. Everyone is alright with this as they have trust in Shep. 

Shep doesn't believe in money. He believes in the phrase "For the people, of the people!". Residents must exchange services in order to get something.
