I think I have finally got Eutrusca to where I wanted it to go. Both Civil Rights and Political Freedoms are "Superb," and the economy is a "Powerhouse," AND there are no friggin' income taxes! Heh! I've set the issues to "dismiss" automatically. ( http://www.nationstates.net/eutrusca )

Just wanted a chance to brag a bit. :)

How the hell did you get your income taxes to go down???

I seems that all the options that would decrease my income tax would also decrease my political and civil rights.

And it only took you a year and a half :D

Oh well im proud of my dodgy, 6 month old Libertarian police state, the populace "are proud of their wide-ranging civil freedoms, and those who aren't tend to be dragged off the streets by men in dark suits and hustled into cars with tinted windows." Classic.

Well done.

But "Widely Abused" is the way to go.

Just read all the issues very carefully, and kept bumping the income tax down every chance I got. And whenever there was a civil rights or political freedom issue which wouldn't raise them, or which would raise them only marginally, I would adopt it. Takes a bit of time, obviously, but you just have to keep plugging away at it.

Kewl. I've got five other nations on which I'm still working too, but all of them are slightly different in their approach to things, so the outcomes will be different.

Widely Abused is like the mythical level of Civil Rights, that no one's ever got.

I've got the freedoms worked out, but my economy resolutely refuses to improve, and my tax rate is too high. Damned liberalism, always spoiling the show.

Welcome my friend to the world of Civil Rights LoveFest-

I still a better nation then yours- I'm not bragging take a look for yourself. Why I have a 100% tax rate- I give back alot of that to my fellow citizens. Free Health care- that includes vision, dental, doctor visits so on. Free Education from Basic all the way to College- covers room and board, tutition, meals, so on.

Also, Gas is free- :D, thats right you heard me. Free Gas!

BTW, with no taxable income you couldn't pay for anything- so in fact in real life your nation would not even be able to pay for anything. No military, no public services, you can forget law and order, how you going to pay the police?

Selecting a pro-business Supreme Court Judge helps a lot, especially over time. ;)

Heh! We still tax businesses and goods & services. Much more equitable, don't you think? Besides, I hate income tax! Heh!

BTW ... TSK: "United Earthlings has been recently classified as an international menace after 'liberating' several nearby territories." :D

And just think, it only took about 27 thousand and-a-half thousand more posts to get there.
Plus, i imagine, you had to marry Max Barry a few times.
;)
Congrats anyway.

LOL! As far as I can see, they're very similar, except that you have an "all-consuming" economy, and still have income tax. :p

Compulsory military service? Lying newscasters? Politicians swimming in donated money? Dude...you should check out some of the issues instead of dismissing them all, so you can get a better 3rd paragraph.

LOL! I chose compulsory military service right from the "Create a nation" page. As for "lying newscasters," that's part of what you buy into with freedom of the press. As to the donations to political campaigns by businesses, that actually increased the "Political Freedoms" measure.

I, too, finally have my nation where I want it. Civil rights and political freedoms are outlawed, my economy is frightening, and my income tax is at 100%.

Life is beautiful in the Glorious Quorum of Aardweasels. If you're me, that is. *grin*

yay, go you!

though we do see things very differently - i'm proud that i just got back to being Democratic Socialists :D :p

100% income tax, average political and civil rights, but a frightening economy, as ever (only Kanabia gives me a run for my money in our region... the bastard! :upyours: :p)

I had both my civil rights and political freedoms at "Excellent" and my economy at "Frightening" for a while.

I do somehow have a 100% tax rate, though... >_>
