Patton For Kansas July 2010

Day 974, 09:15 Published in USA USA by George S. Patton Jr
I would like to officially announce my candidacy for the seat of United States Congress representing Kansas on behalf of the United States Workers Party. I humbly ask for your support in the upcoming congressional election and invite you to listen to my platform.

Why am I running?
I’m running because I want to continue with my work in congress. I always have served my country whether it be in game or in real life. The eUSA needs to step up its game and make it count, especially with being V2 now. We need to come up with a new budget for the country. I will make sure that my ideas are heard. There are many programs that don't need funding and possible programs that will need starting.

What I plan to accomplish
As I said last time, If I win the seat in Congress for Kansas, I plan to be as active and professional as possible. I will do my job as a congressman and I'll do it to the best of my abilities. I support budget cuts and I plan to help propose new ideas and such to help eUSA's struggling economy, help new citizens, and improve foreign relations. Fionia our Vice President stated simply ''Congress Sucks''. At times yes I wish we had more to do. Congress is important and has a lot of great minds in it. It should serve to debate topics in the eRepublik world. All of congress should give advice. If the President is in need of a second opinion he should not be scared to go to congress. If we are good enough to be in a elected position we should have to prove it.

Foreign Affairs
Right now with the military module opening up everyone is attacking everyone. I am all for war because that drives our economy. I believe that we should stay independent as to dealing with other nations. We have proved we don't need a major alliance. Russian Invasion must be stopped at all cost, but anyone would agree with that.

Taxes/Minimum Wage
I believe that taxes should just be left were they are. There has been too much debate on them. I wouldn't support a raise in VAT or Income Tax because I believe active players should get more of a break and 2 clickers should be hit harder. I would also never support going higher than 25% on income tax. Minimum wage must stay at .10 an hour. Skill 1 workers aren't worth more than that. Guru's making crap wages has nothing to do with minimum wage and everything to do with the fact the economy hasn't gotten off the ground yet. Raise minimum wage and you'll just see inflation in prices, without any actual relief.

Budget
Budget needs to be adjusted and cut. Salvation Army and Flying Unicorn Squadron are defunct. We need to figure out what new programs need to be brought on. I suggest some more funding go to Meals on Wheels as they major source of Health, Happiness, and Tickets for newbie players. Overall Interior Department should be cut down.

eUS Military
For this subject, I shall say what I said last time because it is straight to the point. We must stand and support our military no matter what. They keep our borders safe and defend freedom all around the globe. A supported military is a strong military! We should support the military in any way possible, whether it be donating weapons or money to the Marines or National Guard, or making a quick article giving our guys some motivation to do their best.

Short, quick and to the point
As the representative of Kansas, I pledge to do my job, and do it well. I will work for the betterment of you and everyone else in the nation. I will work with the other congressmen and women to get the job done and get it done the right way efficiently. I will release an article occasionally, showing my progress and what I’ve done. I am not here for the gold or experience. I’m here to make a difference… and you can help make a difference too by voting for me! VOTE SMART!
