What is a Republican in EREPUBLIK?
loftedraptor
We are the good guys who stand for a fair days pay for a fair days work, and good jobs and weapons for all our warriors. We are Patriots and love the USA and I invite anyone to look at our war records.
Join us and help us defy the power brokers who were ripping us off with their 25 buck q1 weapons. Something snapped in me when I asked good strong soldiers to go into battle without weapons. I went into battle without weapons because my buddies didn't have weapons, fair is fair. I could have bought Q3s or better. I am really pissed off how things are being run in this country, and it was not the Presidents fault, he was doing everything he could to help us win. Maybe this country needs a little bit of common sense. What makes the Republicans different is that they wish that the Government owned some weapons companies so that no American warrior went into battle without weapons. Stick that in your pipe and smoke it. We are bad mouthed because we dare oppose the power brokers who are getting rich off the weapons trade. They don't want us cutting into their profits by daring to propose government owned companies to stockpile weapons in a strategic reserve for defending our country.
Never mind the new Civil Service Middle Class which would be created of loyal, fairly paid workers dedicated to the defense of their country which will screw the hell out of the slave labor camps.
The Power Brokers are going to fight us tooth and nail because we stand for real change.
The decision is yours, are you going to support the same old business as usual, or you going to try to change things for the better?
I invite you to join us in the Republican Party of the USA. We may not win this time around but we are going to put some solutions on the table.
Respectfully submitted for your consideration,

We already nationalized several weapon companies with more on the way. There's already talk of nationalizing the iron companies too. What more do you want?
If I remember correctly, Mombassa, founder of the CPUSA fought against our own forces in eMexico. I wouldn't call that Patriotism, would you?
Communists want to prevent people from utilising many of the features in this game. For example the Communists in eAustralia want to prohibit people from having a business & wishes to place everybody on subsistence wages. They're also radically anti-west.
lol @ AW
I will say if everything became standardize in this game it would get rather boring very quickly. Why try or put more than a minimal effort if your not even going to have a chance to gain something from/for that additional effort. Not to mention the fact that this places complete power in the hands of an even smaller number of people than it is currently. If we had another "treasury" type incident everything would be gone since the Fed would be responsible for the entire economy. I dont have a problem with the ideas of communism. I just dont think its realisticly applicable to people as they need motivation to get things done.
Hating the idea of a sedentary, opportunity-devoid economy doesn't make you a powerbroker. Socialism can't work on eRepublik, just like real life! Funny that
Richard, it does though 😛
@Marquis
you know, this whole time I thought your avatar was a penguin. But it's a shark! funny.
Sorry, I'll rephrase. It works if you've got a community of about ten people of the exact same ability, but any more than that...
I don't think that being a patriot is in line with Marxism-Leninism. A true communist must be a follower of proletarian internationalism.
First of all the times of Mombassa are completely over, a new communist party has arisin and new ways are emerging that a die hard communist would think to be false. Also we are no eAustralians we are in no league with them or have any idea of their intentions. Also some of you are visualizing the communism that took place in Russia. We WOULDNT OWN EVERY COMPANY, WE JUST WANT MORE COMPANIES. Also how can we put more power in someone else's hand. WE CANT ABOLISH CONGRESSIONAL ELECTIONS WE CANNOT GIVE THE PRESIDENT MORE POWER. This isn't real life where the president cannot be impeached with all his ideas being passed indefinitely
@Muljo; of course its a shark. A penguin? Come on, its called clicking on my profile then clicking on the picture 😛
@Richard; This might have been a little before your time, but for good or ill back in the beta days /v/akistan had one of the best economies running with over 1000 people and it was socialist (Dio Brando was transporting thousands of gold and PKR at a time between the different state owned companies and the citizens in /v/akistan)
Yeah, communism works out pretty well in ER. Does have some problems with inefficient labor allocation(in terms of skills). Really don't think the US is the best place to attempt to create a communist party though.
Lol!
NICE
in Loftedraptor attempts to Americanize himself he had pantherthug rename the CPUSA to the Republican Party. You can't trust people who flip-flop on ideologies like that.
To the Late, Great Lester Snopes.
My Ideology is simple and quite consistent:
Make the Game work really well so everyone has a good gaming experience, has fun playing, and don't quit on us after a few days or weeks. ---- and play by the rules so you don't get banned like you did, Lester --- what a waste of a bright mind.
I mourn your passing... .
GO LOFT! Totally agree with everything your saying.
