gollark: Maybe I just click "yes the government should do this" too much without thinking "wait, that would cost a lot of money".
gollark: Guess I'm secretly socialist and in denial!
gollark: > The relatively small, liberal, pro-business, outspoken government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Education, and Industry. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 8.2%.
gollark: > The Free Land of Anrak is a massive, efficient nation, remarkable for its deadly medical pandemics, keen interest in outer space, and absence of drug laws. The hard-nosed, hard-working, democratic population of 2.677 billion Anrakians live in a state of perpetual fear, as a complete breakdown of social order has led to the rise of order through biker gangs.
gollark: I have Notelia, my main one which also seems to have gone socialist because the game seems to like that for some reason, Anrak, where there is literally no law enforcement (but government-provided education if I remember right), and Doemokria, where I do random testing.
