Region: Libertatem
Well, I'm a laissez-faire capitalist and I abolished all government including public education, so the biased game equates that to my having no educational system (they are of course not right) and that my people are stupid. Actually, the most capitalist nations will be ranked the highest on this scale, so I congratulate Abatael for his dedication to freedom and free markets.
If you check the sectors of his government, he has no commitment to education at all. Personally, I am in favor of this.

All right, perhaps I am wrong, I will of course relent if you are sure you are right; I was just going off what other constituents of early fascism told me. I myself have only delved extensively into the theories of Capitalism and Socialism. I prefer economic systems to political ones.
Thank you guys for welcoming me into this beautiful region!!!
You're welcome. We strive for free people, free markets, and peace through strength.

What do you want me to do about it?! I am bored as well (although it takes work to maintain this region now that I think about it).

You realize I do my homework and play this game at the same time...what's the english assignment about?
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Perhaps you have focused too much on your other languages and haven't put enough time into the English language.
Well, what's the exact topic of your story?
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
That is so simple. How could you whine about that? How long is it?
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Whoa. That is certainly large. How long did that take you to write?
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Well, best of luck. The only advice I can give you is to get crackin'!
Impressive. I too am Italian (1/4). The Italian side is the dominate culture in my family. Though, none of us know the language. When my great grandpa came to America from Italy, he made sure his family spoke English at home. I only can speak English and Spanish.
What's your story about?
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
That's actually remarkably similar to mine. My great grandpa bought our current company right after it was founded in 1921. Now we are a business family.
Not fluent, but I can speak it pretty good for a Gringo (according to my Spanish teacher).

My great grandpa had his own masonry business.
Yeah, she called me a Gringo. She was weird.
Wow, that story is good...you should make the ending something like he becomes a heroic businessman or something (like in Atlas Shrugged), makes a bunch of money and employs a bunch of kids from the ghetto neighborhood, bringing more wealth to himself and everybody else.
I always like a hero's story. It is the true meaning of being human.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Abatael, I know that, I meant make it like Atlas Shrugged in that the heroes are businessmen.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Atlas Shrugged needs to be added on my reading list. I am not much of a reader of novels.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
You guys ready for the debate?
*Sigh...you're being very difficult. The heroes include people like Rearden and others. I must leave this conversation now. I am not offering anything constructive.

Me too.
Well I got to go. Last minute homework and all.

It made me look like a jerk...I was bothered by it.

It's done...unsuppressed.
Go Mitt!

I'm not rooting for Obama, that's indubitable. The logical thing to do, then, is to cheer for Romney.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
^ You've seen that commercial too?
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
All things considered, I'm really not as far into politics as I'd previously thought. What I do know, however, is that Obama's policies are terrifying.

In all fairness, Obama did not add more debt than all the presidents combined. However, he did add more than any other president in US history.
Post by Abatael suppressed by a moderator.
Considering he wants to pour MORE money into the broken bureaucracy we call the education system, intends to make healthcare completely government-mandated and obligatory, and seeks to slowly chip away at everything defense-related, Obama would qualify as a worse president than either Wilson or FDR if he were to obtain a second term.
Romney, who has proven the ineffectiveness of government involvement in the economy time and time again in debate, is the only logical alternative.

I agree with all the statistics you have given: they are correct. However, you misunderstand the data. Most of the sites say Obama has added more debt than Washington to George HW Bush/Reagan combined. Now, that leaves out the Bush and Clinton deficits. Additionally, one of your sites says Obama has added more debt than Bush; that is also true, but it does not mean Obama has added more debt than all the US presidents combined. I agree we must put a break on the obscene spending/borrowing and that Obama is a disciple of Keynesian Economics, but we must get our facts straight, and the fact is, you're just not right.
On another point, no one pays attention to the shadow debt accumuated by our nation. We think trillion dollar deficits are bad, but we don't see the over $200 trillion in unfunded liabilities racked up by our nation in the last couple of decades. What is this debt from? Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. It's proof that liberal economics just doesn't work!
Here's the site, everything you just read is true, I made no mistakes:
http://dailybail.com/home/chart-shock-the-real-national-debt-is-202-trillion.html
http://www.christianpost.com/news/whats-the-real-national-debt-53525/
This is real, the national debt we think is large is nothing compared to the debt the government is obligated to pay for. We could pay off the 16 trillion by basically sacrificing neccessities like food and clothing, but this 200 trillion is so large, it will be almost impossible to get rid of. This is why I'm a libertarian, I stand for an economic system that will not accumulate this debt. I'll say the thing no Republican would ever dare say...end Social Security and Medicare!!! Give me back my economic and personal freedom!
I'm going to go check my mail box for a Government Check oh wait a sec I don't exaggerate on my paper work for hand outs so guess its just bills for me....
Dear nations of Libertatem,
I encourage you to vote against the Transboundary Water Use Act that is now before the general assembly of the World Assembly.
It suggests more legislation at the cost of industry and it is my firm belief that more legislation will not save water.
Best regards,
Gunnar Jónasen II
President of Snabagag

Dromund Kaas, unblock me from telegraming you immediately. If anyone sees this message, please telegram Dromund Kaas and tell him to unblock me. Thanks.
Delegate Snabagag, your belief is of course correct...I have had my WA nation vote against it.

Sure Alex. Swtor troll lol just updated that whens the free to play i might reactivate my account. Pre ordered the CE and played 6 months just to watch a server merger and kind of lost faith...
So...has Dromund Kaas made any responses?
Should be good now.
Hi guys
Hey folks. Just want to say that if you're in Ohio, and you can vote early, please do so. Mitt needs your support!
He does indeed. Please tell Mitt you're in.
Retracting SWTOR troll comment.
I will be going to Cinci this Thursday to see Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan and I am assuming Rob Portman and Rand Paul will be there. Tickets should still be available, and they are free. Great way to meet the GOP team and help get out the vote!
Also, if you have not gotten involved in Project ORCA, please do so. Especially if you're in a battleground state. It will task you with providing a direct feed to Governor Romney on election day, and letting them know the statistics and number of voters on the ground at your polling station. It will also help defeat voter fraud and voter irregularities that may pop up. For more information on Project ORCA, and how you can get involved, please send me a telegram and I can help you out.
I leave in Washington state so neither campaigns are very active here. Go Mitt Romney!
They race that is important in Washington is McKenna vs Inslee for governor. Go Rob McKenna!
I honestly think that the Voter Fraud is being blown out of proportion. We have bigger fish to fry.
Regardless of what you do, making phone calls is important. Voting early, and ensuring that you are getting others to vote is important as well. Please do whatever you can. Just because you live in a blue state, doesn't mean you cannot make a difference.
And another thing - why are so many people against introducing state legislation (in any state) to lower the voting age two years? It's not like every single teenager is going to vote Obama.

We need to get back to what we were created for...Death to Communism! I just had to say that; we need to talk about how bad communism is for a while. *Please leave your thoughts.
communism is bad for a country.....a country can never ever progress with communism..
It's kind of twisted, because capitalism is the system of progress and communism, despite what they'd tell you, is the system of regress.
People never really take the time to explain why communism is wrong. They take even less time to explain why capitalism is right.
Capitalism is a system best suited to praise people for hard work. If you can make and keep large amounts of money, then it belongs to you. If you can't, it doesn't. The trick to keeping it is tied between good investment strategies and maintaining a well-paying job. If you're business-smart, you should be able to do these things no-problem. While it's sad that this system is not preferred by everyone, the preference of the lower class is unthinkable to the affluent, allowing capitalism to stay afloat in the meantime.
That preference would be communism, a system in which everyone is supposedly entitled to the same rights, same income, and same coverage of needs. And what easier way to do that, thought the leaders of the Soviet Union, than to give everyone no rights, low income, and little opportunity to supply for their own needs? That way, the richest of the rich would forever have their money, and the ruling class would always be on top despite any poor decisions they might make. In capitalism, the upper class might throw a fit if they saw their money go down the drain, but the idea that such a thing is possible is one of the wonders of capitalism. Everything stays the dark, dreary same in a communist society.
Even if communism could work without a ruling class, how long would it work? The unemployed in a communist society (or the downright lazy) would lower the average net profit produced by communist industries. This would lower everyone's income, including those who work hard. Those who work hard would determine that their pay isn't worth their effort, and would not cooperate with their companies. That would make for even less cash inflow, until there's no money at all. And without money, some people might still be able to survive, but their industry would be dead.
In capitalism, people don't all earn the same income. Those who work longer at a higher-paying job get more money than those who work for shorter periods of time at a minimum-wage job. This is a meritocracy of sorts, one that compels people to work harder in order to earn more money. While the system has been hijacked by those who simply want capitalism to fail so they can get money without working, the U.S. economy is still a shining symbol of why capitalism works and communism doesn't. Socialism has deteriorated the private sector, though...we need more conservatives to fight for it.
The countries that are staunchly pro-communism are all nearly gone, but the vengeful spirit of such an oppressive idea is very much present within our society. We need to flush it out.
[Nation]Conservative Idealism[/nation], what a great explanation. I thank you and if I may, I will write that down and read to anyone who listens. The reason I have never attempted to explain in such an elaborative way is that I get angry thinking about it and therefore am unable of formulating my thoughts.
Once again, I feel compelled to remind the WA members of this region that the Transboundary Water Use Act now before the General Assembly is highly statist and by all standards against the objective of this region. It worries me that the region is so divided on this matter. I do not oblige anyone to decide otherwise, I only oblige everyone to consider what they are voting for.
...I should have saved my explanation for my blog. I don't know how the heck I managed to write like that.
