The Last Thoughts on elections.

Day 2,782, 15:25 Published in USA USA by Waffenmeister


Dear America hello, you may not know me, but I know you! So I hope we will become friends in coming days. So at first I would like to introduce myself - what can I say about me. I come from the great Northern Lands of Latvia, where we battle against the savage Nordlings of Estonia or Sweden and keep peace in the neighboring lands of Lithuania, but enough about my past, its time to look towards the future, towards tomorrow elections that will decide the fate of USA in coming weeks. But will it?

You see, dear America, I've been thinking quite a bit lately about something we can all relate to, something that is unquestionably, painfully obvious. That the economy is dead. To be honest - It has never been a live one , but there were times when you could see it kicking and struggling. Can a president heal something that is terminally ill? No! Only Plato can do it, so for now we will be left with an festering carcass of a dead horse that is occasionally being kicked by players who own q7 factories.

Why I am mentioning economy? You see,if you own anything less than q7 factory, there is no point in dreaming about becoming a capitalist with world enterprise that this game slogans advertised, and I dont think even players with q7 factories earn much. I believe that if you are a young player, economical decision preferences of the next president are out of the window.

But what about welfare programs and blood,destruction and carnage of the enemies?
Sure welfare programs can be put in place and wars declared, but either one of them can do that and they probably will do that. So I advise for free thinking outside the party rhetoric's and ask the only question in these elections that you should ask yourself - will community improve if we elect one or another? I am not here to answer that question for you, you should be the one who answers it tomorrow. Personally I have decided the only question is, have you?


After Word
Okay. I got this off my chest. At first I wanted to write about some candidates but then decided against it, mostly because I wasn't that familiar with past work, and to me, most offered similar policies. I am sorry that you needed to listen to my mad ravings about things that I dont fully understand. But in any case moving on!


Why should you join the SFP?
If you are a player like me, who doesnt have that highest strength in low division placement , and if you ask yourself what to do here in erepublic besides login in and clicking some buttons. Well there is a community! And I am not talking about the one in the feed, I am talking about SFP community!

Granted it is not the biggest community, but does it matter when community in question is vibrant and friendly? Because what erepublic is besides interactive forum? Not much , so join in , have a talk, get a free house and a fat paycheck and tune in to listen what Franklin Stone offers in his thread.
Join the SFP today and bring change in USA in form of FUN today!

Chess Tournament
As I said before , erepublic military model is not fun at least not for me, so because of that I am organizing a Chess Tournament, that at least has better combat mechanics. Why should you even consider this? Well lets look at facts, community interactions is what keeps this boat afloat. So why not engage in more direct activities? Why not Chess ? Sign today for the tournament! See the details here:

The last word
This is totally out of the erepublik boundaries but still, I would like to say something.
From time to time people have wondered why reading is important. There seems so many other things to do with one's time especially in Summer. But reading is important for a variety of reasons. One of them is, it opens our imaginations and galvanizes us to dream about the future and reminiscence about the past. And that is an important aspect of human species, to imagine.

So shout out in a comment - what people should read, but let it be something unheard of, something exciting or thought provoking. I would really like to hear what people should read.

So happy birthday America, may you always be that shining beacon in the dark.

Signing out yours truly
Waffenmeister,
