Beware Martial Law

The nation:
A puppet of mine, last time #9 in the world for Political Freedom, #8 in the world for most liberal.

The issue:
#65: Should Martial Law be declared? [Issue by American Militarists]

The decision:
Ya know what, I'm feeling kinda curious! Surely it'll hurt my Political Freedoms somewhat, but I got lots and lots of that anyway. Let's declare Martial Law and see what happens! I mean, really, how bad could it be? If I drop a level or two, I can get that back soon enough, I hope.

The result:
Political Freedom drops from "Corrupted" (level 15) to "Unheard of" (level 2).

Sometimes one decision can make a BIG difference...

Never heard of "corrupted" for political freedoms. I think I'm currently "excessive" for that, how much higher can I go?

Is corrupted above World Benchmark. I would have thought that was the highest.

World Benchmark is the last level taht's still "good" .. above that there are a few levels with names that imply you've gone tooo far. Same with the other categories (come on, admit "Frightening" isn't entirely a positive word).

Glad I made the right choice when my Anarchy puppet got the issue (it was hard enough getting the economic freedoms back when they dipped below the requiremnet for a while).

Can you at least give us the line it adds to the third paragraph? Is the line at least creative?

"martial law has been declared and the populace is kept under tight control"

For the Rating/Ranking Scale [Economic, Political, Civil] (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=47301) and other things, have a look at Scolo's Big Tech Sticky List (http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=54421&start=0) in the Technical forum.

I was also wondering how long this would take to get posted . . . Why are you blaming Hack? He's not the one who editted it.
