I. Taxes Raised!
Congress has debated how to maximize government revenue in the backrooms of Capital Hill for a week now. The Economic Council made a few different suggestions regarding the best tax amount. After a failed proposal by Congressman chickensguys, two proposals by Congressman Oblige appear destined for passage. Here are the two proposals:
Tax Change: Food
Value Added Tax (VAT): INCREASED 2%
Import Tax: INCREASED 69%
Tax Change: Weapon
Value Added Tax (VAT): INCREASED 2%
How the taxes will affect you will depend on how self-sufficient you are. In any case, how do you feel about the new taxes?
II. Congress Debate Whether to Disband [CLASSIFIED]
A long-time government program, [CLASSIFIED], is being considered for the budget’s chopping block. Congressman [CLASSIFIED] introduced the idea and has gained some support. Funds for the program will be diverted to [CLASSIFIED]. The Discussion has quickly moved to a Proposal. The Proposal swiftly moved to a Vote
I have requested the Discussion be made public as the program is utilized by a variety of Americans. Otherwise, the program may be cut without forewarning.

In an effort to sustain interest in this newspaper, I am asking readers to fill out a survey. It is completely anonymous and will hopefully make this paper better.

I took the survey
I'm glad someones filling us all in on this. The Classified program that is to be cut, sense its used by the public, should NOT be a hidden debate but then again Congress has this hangup with making just about everything secret.
Another great article Heero Blaze.
Yes, I have been very impressed with this Newspaper
I'm starting to feel like the Congress is hiding things from the people not to protect the nation but to instead conduct some shady business. Maybe I'm wrong, in fact, I hope I'm wrong, because if we have a Congress that is conducting business like this, it's time for a new Congress.
you're wrong portcolumbus. you can pm me if you'd like.
I hope I am wrong, and this classified info, when it does become legal to release, was nothing shady. I have faith that my reservations are wrong. I believe in America, and in the American people. I have always been a supporter of the government, but this is the first time I've seen things about classified info. I suppose all governments need some things to stay out of enemy hands, and that I could understand. Like I said, I will presume that my reservations are off big time until they are otherwise proven.
The current congress is a dank sewer of elitism in the clutches of a supervillian.
