What eAUS should consider.

(Sorry guys no pics, just straight info)
What eAUS should consider for the future to make it grow and sustain a healthy level of active players/new players and old alike.
I told myself i would get involved in eAUS politics because it is run of friendships and not policy's. Its come down to pure "stroking" of the next guy to get any positions in eAUS and don't even think about running for CP unless you ate enough a$$.
Anyhow I'm not here to rant about that, this is a proposal for the current CP and future CP's to consider and actually do some work other then 1 day of negotiations for a NAP and consider it a success CP term.
What i propose is eAUS does the fallowing;
Raise Minimum Wage to 35-50 cc per day (this is to attract new players to stay as well as attract other players from across eREP to come and work for eAUS)
Raise taxes to 7% prospectively, if not more (i will explain why down below)
Start a program for ALL company's in existence in eAUS where employers can sign up to be subsidized for raw materials (what this means is the government will use tax money to buy and give free raw materials to employers, this will allow MORE production of weapons food and if not houses to be sold at lower, competitive prices which will in turn bring foreign costumers/tax payers to our country. I believe this will free a crap load of workers for employers from using them in raw productions and let them be used to produce more goods. ***If they wish to be subsidized they have to fallow strict government rules, based on what they are producing, obvieslly if they are making Q7 weapons they have to pay more then a person making Q1 so we keep everyone honest and keep higher levels from profiting more. This will also eliminate players who are using eAUS low taxes to sell weapons to foreign countries.***
Use tax money/donations to bring players to eAUS. Start a heavy campaign and give new players into eAUS a nice welcome package. This i haven't thought of yet but make it attractive, maybe like 500c with 100q7 weapons, i dunno. I know players will come and probably might leave eAUS but its worth a shot and we will have some losses but i believe we will gain a lot from this.
This will also give us a chance for the Minister of Immigration to keep busy with a list and create a black list for players that come and leave eAUS for the bonus.
Finally, pardon ALL players who left eAUS. Im talking about ALL, yes including Binda, Larny, MickGatto who ever. Ultimately it is there own decision to come back but we should not aliante players on personal opinion.
As much as i hate some players here im willing to try again and 2nd chance it all, those players might be "bad" to some but they kept eAUS interesting and busy.
Your thoughts?

Also, im willing to donate 100 gold to help out with both programs to subsidize company's with raw materials and also help with cost to bring new players into eAUS.
Now Icetek who is it who considers if players are "bad" or not & deserves a second chance?
Binda, Larney MickGatto etc do not need to be "pardoned". It may well come down to who they are prepared to pardon.
Nevertheless your approach has a lot of merit - Australia is not big enough to put up with the bastardery that went on (and probably still exists).
Overall a good article
Good article Icetek, we need more players who have creative ideas and want to share them to and to encourage them.
Some of the points you have stated are in the pipelines already, but with a different twist to it. The others will be raised as well.
In order to keep the good name of our current CP I shall not comment this article.
nice article 🙂
I like it, we need something to jumpstart some activity in this nation. Let's see if I will be proven wrong and some tenacity is shown from the Government.
and who exactly will do all this administrivia?
We have like 7 cabinet positions with like 6 of them just writing 1 article the whole term if even that.
Im sure they could be assigned the work.
I can't think of anything to say so I'm just going to post a pancake recipe
Ingredients
1 1/2 cups milk
1 egg
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cups White Wings self-raising flour
1/4 teaspoon bicarbonate of soda
1/3 cup caster sugar
25g butter, melted
Step 1
Whisk milk, egg and vanilla together in a jug. Sift flour and bicarbonate of soda into a bowl. Stir in sugar. Make a well in centre. Add milk mixture. Whisk until just combined.
Step 2
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Brush pan with butter. Using 1/4 cup mixture per pancake, cook 2 pancakes for 3 to 4 minutes or until bubbles appear on surface. Turn and cook for 3 minutes or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat with remaining mixture, brushing pan with butter between batches. Serve.
Never tried it with vanilla extract, but then again i eat mine American style with pancake syrup (melted sugar basically)
Best eaten with a frostong of sugar & cinnamon & lemon juice
I consider myself a good cook, i like to cook the big meats. Leg of lamb, a whole lamb, roast beef, i make killa mash potatoes etc. Not really a sweets person but lemon juice on pancakes lol im a bit scared to try that.
pancake syrup and/or brown sugar and/or honey. Lemon juice sounds real scary.
lmao i know im trying to picture that taste, i mean if i wanted that i would just order some Asians sweet and sour chicken
I like lemon juice with heaps of stuff XD
Its like putting salt on Grapefruit, the resulting flavour is totally different to what is expected.
Like pr3zzyy said, lemon juice can be used on lots of food to improve flavour.
Try it with sugar on pancakes - you will like it, trust me 🙂
In cooking i usually use the lemon skin to add that zestfulness to meat (with a grinder not actual pealed skin lol)
I just never heard of it being used on something that is meant to be sweet tooth heaven food. Next time i have pancakes ill try it.
If you use the right amount, it can make a dull sweet food have a nice tang to it.

I don't put salt on grapefruit, sugar only.
nice idea
