[Congress] Dictator handover

Day 2,721, 14:50 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by perilouspanther


Hai guys,

I thought I'd just inform the people of englandom about the recent Congress news and bizniz, I think that the people of the UK are being starved of information and the media is going dry so here is my take on what is going on..




So, what has been happening? First of all we had the new plan for the installing of a new dictator which was proposed by Sir H Appleby which in short said that a dictator candidate would have to be supported by 10 sponsors and once these 10 sponsors had supported the dictator candidate a referendum would be created and two dictator candidates would get voted upon. It is very much like a CP election, but without the sponsors. You can see the full details here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BP4C2rVqqcrQVjqad5oFtG3AzzUiVxhpI4C1xkj1pnQ/edit

Well the most important and most influential thing that has happened is the swapping of dictators from the wonderful Scarfar, to the public's favourite, Mr Woldy. After passing the proposal of the dictatorship plan a referendum for a new dictator was in order. Two candidates were made clear to be favourites within the community and both received 10 sponsors. Appleby was one and so was Mr Woldy. Our CP (Max Blue) then created an article which informed the people of the UK of the referendum and asked them to vote in the comments below the article. Mr Woldy won the referendum and today we saw Scarfar being replaced by Mr Woldy.
I think that a huge thank you is in order for Scarfar and in the comments below post a little salute for Scarfar and his sterling work in getting back the country, getting a peace proposal with France fixed and pushing buttons for us. o7

The other thing that has happened lately which has proven fairly successful is the rise of taxes and VATs. For the country's benefit and money gain to help our country back to former glory. A 3% tax rise was implemented as well as the 3% VAT rise for houses, food, weapons....3 days later...moving tickets... I think that's it...


As you can see...it has gone well.

As well as taking our regions back which has helped, you can see above that the money earned has almost tripled.


Money, money... and you guessed it MONEY!!

Many other ideas have come through that can be put in place for the future - such as 'Council Housing' or 'Housing Loans' which would be a government loan system which would loan money for a house. The person who takes the money then makes approximately 300 CC and invests in another house. They make another 300 CC and they do that over and over again until they can buy a house on their own - assuming that they earn 50 CC a day + overtime is 100CC. Using only the overtime money they could after 7 days working earn 350 from the scheme, houses cost around 250 CC, so it would take around 3 weeks to be able to buy your own house not using gov funds or 'normal work money'.

Another idea is war bonds, which are an idea that started in the early 1900s. Lord of Bones talks about these quite well in his article here: http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/mission-strength--2521265/1/20


That's me attempting to wave... 🙂

That's all from me.
