Hello!
If you noticed the Doctor Who reference, which is quite obvious from my profile avatar, newpaper title, newspaper image(If it updates).... I congratulate you! If you can tell I am a big Doctor Who fan, although it is a British show, I will admit it is amazingly well directed and has a great storyline and actors, although it can get a bit... whats the word.... ridiculous at time, I still love it!
Rose: 5/5(Especially in The Stolen Earth finale)
Martha: 3/5(Too mushy, needs more action)
Donna: 3/5(Annoying)
The Doctor: 5/5(Pwns, always)
Captain Jack: 4/5(Good ole fish 'n chips!)
The Master: 5/5(Sux how he dies)
On to the business
I am a current congress hopeful for Alaska! You can check out what I have already said at the following link: http://www.erepublik.com/en/forum/topic/94166/vote-for-me-in-the-alaskan-congress-elections/1
As the thread in the link states, I am going to be presses for the rise in minimum wage by at least 0.50USD, possible more if I am elected. I plan on personally messaging each representative to help push this through. It is important to have a good start in eUSA and this will certainly help!
Rocco Baldelli, Congressman from New Hampshire helped me greatly when I started and I hope to follow his example. I will attempt to help all who ask if they need anything, such as wellness or even just food to get through. I will hope that the Alaskan citizens are strong enough for whatever is to come in this great eCountries future and can hold against anything thrown at us!
Remember to take part in the war games, I hope they will continue much longer as they help almost everybody involved. Remember to time it right for healing each day or you may end up in a wellness jam with your employer. Part of what I will do is halt any wellness dropping that may occur. If you have trouble with wellness remember to not take a job that is high in quality as it harms your wellness even more.
I have been playing little over a month and have logged on every day to work and train. I will be a dedicated congressman and inform any readers about all the choices I make if I am elected to congress.
Im new to running for an elected office within eUSA so if you have any comments, questions, concerns, or doubts, please let me know as soon as you can and I will reply as quickly and honestly as possible, cutting out the bull that politicians usually serve people.
-Ardez, FTW!
EDIT: A quote from the forums by a loyal voter Gallagher: "Your right.... I agree with you. You were justified. I love what you are doing for the people of Alaska. Your mustache makes me feel inadequate. I was just jealous."

a little hint, pm'ing congress members about raising the minimum wage, will just get you a whole bunch of annoyed responses. There is a reason why the minimum wage is where it is. If you had been to the forum, you would know that.
I have read the forums about this and it is commonly stated that many people give up on this game because they notice that the cost of food is more than they earn.
Of course you can always say that that goes away after a few skill levels and it is just an illusion, but to new players, they don't know as much as everybody who is already a few levels up. They may not have read the new citizen message because they think it is like many games where it just says welcome to the game. New players don't understand as much and need to be encouraged to stay in the game to grow and improve it for others.
You my friend, need to read the forums and understand that you can't always expect every new player to read all the information available, or to be constantly active on their profile to work and train because at that point it almost seems hopeless.
Good luck man, and I do hope that you come to understand this.
well, don't say I didn't warn you when other congressmen are annoyed by you. The current minimum wage is below the equilibrium wage. 0 skill workers are not very productive. There will be less jobs for them if the minimum wage goes up. Raising it will not help them understand the game.
Raising it will help them stay in the game longer to learn about it. I am already talking to congressional hopefuls, and previous congressmen about some of this and they are agreeing with me and I with them.
My mistake she moved. Wait, sorry elections are. (no sarcasm meant)
