14 September, 2009, Day 664 of the New World - Following a turn around in the war where it looked like Russia was almost out of the continent, Russia now is marching onto Florida. realizing a vital mistake in attacking Georgia (which would had allowed Spain the ability to start a free war with Russia and begin to block them to our benefit) they retreated the battle within two minutes of our President's attempt to retreat - thus giving Spain a 24 hour window to attack Russia. In light of this strategic shift, a new bond system is being released.


United States Bond Program

The United States is far from broke, but we have expenses that we want to have covered now and will not have to worry about in the future. Therefore the United States is issuing bonds to the public to garner in some revenue for war-specific projects. During the Siege of California, the U.S.A. brought in over 300 GOLD worth of donations. With this bond system, we have high expectations on how much we can get from our citizens and brothers in other nations.

The terms are relatively straight forward. We cannot guarantee when the bonds will be replaced. As it stands, there will be an interest rate of 2.15% to be paid once bonds are returned. These bonds will be backed by the Trust and Faith of the United States Departments of the Treasury and Defense. The interest will be paid once, upon the bonds being sent back out. Once bonds are purchased, they are exclusive to your citizen and cannot be sold or change hands.


Click on that picture, and you will be taken to the form.


To get a bond, you must donate a certain amount to Fort Knox Federal Reserve. For logistical purposes, only the following amounts can be bonded (donations, as always, are appreciated!):

00.50 GOLD / 25.00 USD
01.00 GOLD / 50.00 USD
05.00 GOLD / 250.0 USD
10.00 GOLD / 500.0 USD
15.00 GOLD / 750.0 USD
20.00 GOLD / 1,000 USD

Let's say you have 40 GOLD you want to submit. Just put in two forms with 20.00 GOLD as your amount and you will be fine! Any combination will work. GOLD is appreciated and heavily recommended, but we will accept USD. Any other currencies will not be recognized by the bond system.

Once you have submitted the appropriate form we will have a record of your donation. Right before or immediately after your form is submitted, donate the amount to Fort Knox. You will not receive a confirmation message except for the one from the form which will verify it has been successfully submitted.

What are these for?

These bonds will go directly to one of the three fields of interest: Emergency Reaction Funds, Blocking Costs, and Branch Efficiency. Emergency Reaction Funds are for the sole purpose of being able to make a move without needing to wait on the Congressional Budget Office - our chief monetary bank. Sometimes, we have less than an hour to react (as we saw earlier with the Georgia attack by Russia) and need these funds available constantly. Our allies are doing us a great service, but they do not have the hordes of GOLD our foes do. Therefore, we try to contribute in what ever way we can by helping them pay for the blocking costs. Oftentimes our European and Asiatic allies will attack an aggressive nation to prevent them from hitting us - we are always more than glad to pay our weight but we need to have this stock built up in case a massive offensive is designed. Branch Efficiency is another topic which will be explored later on in a future issue of The Report. Essentially: Our military will begin efficient work of producing their own means of war to lower tax payer costs. The initial investment will be great, but will pay for itself within a month.

Once again, the US treasury is far from empty - these are precautionary measures to make sure we can continue as well as broaden our perspective and possibilities.


» The cabinet of the Julius Administration has been finalized. Expect an article in the White House Press Room very soon.

» Congress has begun work on MPP renewal, but in it made a terrible mistake in voting for the Croatian MPP (which opened up a free war with Hungary). This occurred during the turnover from the Emerick Administration. Vice President Jewitt has assumed responsibility for the mistake as he was acting in Emerick's place when the proposal was made.

» The U.S. Congress has begun voting to donate newly-printed USD to the Congressional Budget Office. This will help generate more GOLD income for the U.S. Treasury as well as gain a stronger presence on the targeted Monetary Market.
