The Republic of Ns Island Nation is a
huge environmentally stunning island nation
archipelago consisting of one large island and
over 5,000 small cays and keys, with many
fine white sandy beaches and excellent
natural harbors.

A land of gently rolling hills and plains
with many lush tropical rainforests
and high towering mountains and valleys.

The Republic of Ns Island Nation is renowned for its
punitive income tax rate, its compassionate population

social equality: They tend to view other more capitalist

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent, socially
minded government stops and the rest of society begins,
but it concentrates, mainly on social welfare, although
helthcare and education are secondary priorities.

The average income tax rate is 70 percent and much
lower for the nations privileged governing elite.

The Republic of Ns Island Nation.

Should Democracy be Compulsory?

Option 1. Compulsory voting makes about as much as sence as having the death penalty for attempted suicide,"
says civil rights activists Sue -Ann Wong. "You can't force people to be free! You can only give them the choice. Besides, if all those derelicts who can't be bothered to get off their ass once every few years voted, who would they elect? I shudder to think."

option 2. "It's not contradictory at all, " arguess political commentator Max Barry. "The fact is, if not everyone votes, the outcome isn't truly representative. Some groups--like elderly gun nuts--vote more often than others. That's why always we always end up with such terrible politicians."

Option 3. "This raises an intresting issue," says Alexei Steele, your brother. "And that is: why do we need elections, anyway? Seems to me it would be much simpler if you just decided what was right, and did it. Woudn't that save everyone a lot of time?"

Compulsory voting law passed , law 01 - option 2.

Children as young as eight have been spotted gambling in some of Ns Island Nation's seedier casinos.

Option 1. Social activist Abraham Hamilton is outraged. "Gambling needs to be outlawed immediately.
It's no wonder children are becoming sucked into the vice, with adults setting such a poor example. Gambling is a stain on Ns Island Nation's international reputation and it must be stopped!

Option 2. However, Crown Casino chairperson Miranda Utopia says, "Whats wrong with children gambling? It prepares them for the realities of life, teaching them that success or failure is not due to hard work or intelligence, but the roll of the dice. Besides, if kids weren't gambling, they'd be spraypainting trains."

NSRP option 3. I agree that gambling should be illegal for our nation's people, it is a greedy capitalist vice, and religiously immoral, think of the nation, think of the children, think of our people, but I support legal gambling
for our nation's tourists, think of the money, says the avowedly atheist Minister of Justice, as he checks over his foreign lottery tickets', at the Council of Ministers meeting,
bought through his government office computer.

Illegal gambling law passed, law 02 option 01
Tourist legal gambling law passed,
