ATLANTIS Demands Money, An American Responds
---Letter From The Editor---
In case you haven't heard, go here and see ATLANTIS' official demand for American gold:
Here.
Luckily, the Muckraker already has a response handy:
I, Hari Michaelson, a free citizen of the state of eTexas of the eUSA, do hereby refuse to accept ATLANTIS' demands for payment in any way, shape, or form.
I refuse to allow prejudice and hyposcrisy to shape the manner in which my nation handles its foreign policy, its treasury, or its future.
In September of 1835 a dispatchment of Mexican soliders was sent to the town of Gonzales in order to commandeer a cannon held by settlers, in an attempt to disarm potential rebels.
The settlers refused to surrender the cannon, and instead issued a challenge to the soliders.
Here and now I as an eTexan issue that same challenge to any and all citizens of the ATLANTIS alliance who support the demand for the eUSA to pay a sum of GOLD to the ATLANTIS membernations.
Come and Take it.

Hey, Atlantis, BITE ME!
Voted.
Busted, sham Eurocrat alliance. My sentiments exactly. I'm on record opposing ATLANTIS for weeks. Now we have an excuse to leave.
Voted and subscribed , Good Sir.
Yeah, Dru, credit's deserved where credit's due. You've been on this one from the get-go.

Here, here. They can have their 700 gold when they pry it from our cold, dead hands.
Exactly. Id like to see those brit snobs try and oppose us. Fresh off a war with 7 nations and no god d@mn help from them.
Here here, come tread on us if you gots the guts.
Voted and Sub'd. I'm new, but I haven't seen Atlantis do anything since I've joined. So screw em.
Isn't it funny how Atlantis demands money from us but Romania breaks the rules all the time and nobody says a word? I completely agree with you, forget Atlantis!
Changed the title to better reflect the article.
Great Arti Hari.
I see what you did there.
I didn't even mean to do that at first, but I noticed it too and then caped the A.
Perfect response to the most pathetic demand EVER.
Screw ATLANTIS, what have they done for us lately?
Voted. Screw em
We'll send the Indonesians to collect. With interest.
out of atlantis.
we should find out who the two who voted against us were and conquer them haha.
@Tandefelt: haha. Good luck with that.
Here's how I responded to this news on the official ATLANTIS weblink which informed us that we were very naughty boys, and needed a good spanking:
"Alliances only last as long as they remain in the best interests of all parties concerned. ATLANTIS has made it clear that at least some parties in the alliance do not feel comfortable with the US as an ally. If "loyalty" is not given, "loyalty" will not be returned.
1) You won't see a nickel of the money. Any US Congressperson who votes to pay the fine/extortion will be voted out of office instantly. If you read the US media, you would know that.
2) I suspect the US will soon leave Atlantis. Good luck handling Indonesia on your own.
3) I also suspect that the US will find out who voted for the fine, and who against. I believe we will continue to sign MPP's with our true allies. Those who voted for the fine... are on their own. Again, good luck with an Atlantis that will be down about 11,000 citizens.
Good bye, and thanks for all the fish,
JBB"
If we pay this, I'm going to stop working and starve myself to death. Hunger strike!
Don't worry, it won't be ATLANTIS who will come for your pea-shooter, but a 9-country PEACE GC army
As a result of Uncle Sam's inept strategic maneuvering they landed a few hours ago on eMexican soil in the SE region and might soon be heading your way.
I'll be hiding under my bed, waiting for the Bulgarians to show up.

Bluejacket, that would be very unhospitable of you. Don't you know how to properly welcome guests (even uninvited ones)
I always did love that flag
atlantis won't go for the money
but PEACE...
Wonder what happened to those Mexicans...
Amen
Here Here. If those Atlantis idiots are going to be so hypocritical as to fine eUSA while letting other member nations get away with it then USA our of Failantis. (Their response is that they voted differently on the other countries... I wonder why. Probily the Stick it to the USA mentality they carry in real life)
all right Dirty Hari! Why did we give them OUR money? It ain't theirs, and I sure as hell ain't gonna support ther bitched claim.
Why did our pussy president give em the money? He most should have known that we are now flat broke without a dime in the world now that hes gone and done that now. I wanna know why we just gave up all we had to Atlantis when they havn't done shit in our war. We help em in Romania, but they do shit against Portugal and other PEACE nations that are obviously trying to take out us. The last thing we need right now is a useless aliance that doesn't bother to help us in war (which is the whole purpose of an alliance) that drains away our cash and power when we could very well be creating a third and more organized and close knit group alliance that is smaller and more together in diplomacy. Places like Sweden for example who have decided to pratically not except our gold. Why do we stay in this alliance? Tell Mr. President, why?
For starters, I love "Dirty Hari".
As for the rest of that, I blame the fact that most people seem to be under the impression that ATLANTIS = allies.
We need allies.
We don't need ATLANTIS.
