Happy New Year America,

A Look Back

Yet another year in the New World (and Real World) comes to an end. And oh what a year it was. America spent much of the year dishing out some long overdue revenge on the United Faildom and Russia for their parts in the North American Invasion of WW3. We freed our allies in China from the ironclad grasp of Phoenix after many many many tries. We fought in epic battles such as Hello Kitty and Lion King, which led to the emergence of China as a power player on the world stage. Under President Pig, the USA formally left EDEN, and later formed the Brolliance. The glorious failure that was ironically named eRepublik Rising was forced - I mean introduced, leading to a surge in ragequits around the world. I can go on for days, but much more skilled writers have/will write far more interesting articles, so read those. It's been an exciting year.



A Look Ahead

“The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide that you are not going to stay where you are.”

EDEN and Phoenix are imploding as we speak. The era of a bi-polar world ruled by two opposing global alliances is coming to an end. As I write, new regional alliances are being negotiated and introduced. The US Congress has passed the PANAM charter with overwhelming approval by Senator and average citizen alike. I am very optomistic about PANAM and in extention America's future in the New World. The USA has a real national direction. We are moving forward. We are having great success at retaining new citizens, getting two-clickers involved in the game, and reviving long dead and retired players. America has access to every resource in the New World and therefore one of the most productive economies in the world. We pay a higher income tax rate than most citizens in the New World, but few countries put that revenue to better and more efficient use than the US. As long as we maintain our focus, the possibilites that lay before us are reachable if we have the balls to step outside of our comfort zone.




Leadership

In this new world era we are entering, it is crucial that we have a real leader(s) to guide us in the right direction and make sure that we are not distracted from the more important issues. We need balls in the White House. I can think of few people with more experience, focus, and maturity than Inwegen and CRoy. Haliman will make a decent POTUS down the line. However, Inwegen and Croy are what we need now. Inwegen will be brutally honest whenever he speaks his mind and is not afraid of a fight. CRoy is a master organizer. I've had the pleasure of serving with him in Israel and saw first how he built a party from scratch and transformed it into a powerhouse within the timeframe of a month. And over the last month I've watched him and Claire revive the Libertarian Party and transform it into a powerhouse in US politics. We would all do well to not only vote for these outstanding citizens of the New World, but also learn from them and become better players ourselves.

Resolutions

1. Vote for Inwegen/CRoy.
2. Investigate the cause of my addiction to the game.
3. Actually write more articles more frequently.
4. Finally break 200 subscribers
5. Be elected Leader of the Free World or serve in a Cabinet.

What are yours?
