Overview:
A mostly moderate government, President de los Santos has been President of the Federal Republic of New York and New Jersey for as long as any one citizen can remember. The question as to why his aging is either slowed or stopped completely is an ongoing question within the government and the opposition group the NLP has demanded an investigation.

The high taxes come with having to pay for dozens of social welfare programs which the conservative government has adopted in order to help the general population out with problems ranging from poets seeking monetary aid to government sponsored euthenasia bills. Reaction to increasing taxes is mixed inside NYNJ and the government hopes that a negative backlash is not in the fure.

Debt Internal- 22 million FRD
Credit Rating- A1
The credit rating of the Federal Republic has remained at a constant level A1 following continued payments toward its external debt. Government estimates that the debt will be repaid in full within the next several years.The internal debt however is another story. Payments were not made yet to the internal debt. However with economic troubles affecting the known world several creditors inside NYNJ found themselves looking to the government for help as overseas buisness ventures failed. This led to the debt dropping from 1 billion down to 22 million in a series of government bailouts which corporations were forced to accept as loan payments.

Exports have grown recently as Megrath Syndrome has ceased to exist in the general public and nations of the world have begun to lift their trade embargos on NYNJ. The continued main export of NYNJ is the automobile as the nations Automobile Manufacturers continue to excel over 90% of the competition.

Transportation:

Canals and nautral waterways into New York help vessels and ships transport heavy cargos inland without the heavy dependance of trucks or rail.

Exploration of space has taken a step forward with the completion of the orbital city/shipyard known as Chimera. A multi-trillion dollar project funded by corporations, the military and the civilian government Chimera faced long delays in construction yet was finally completed.
