Thank You eUSA

Day 5,435, 19:40 • Published in USA United Kingdom • by Thee Dude

Greetings my fellow Citizens of these here United States of eAmerica! I would like to take a moment and say some thanks.

Rough Riders. I deeply appreciate all the love and support ya'll have showed me. It really feels like we have built something special there. Excited to see where we go.

The Feds. I have been lucky enough to enjoy the support and friendship of many of you for a while now. Thank you for always being willing to share your wisdom and knowledge

SFP. Thank you, my comrades, for your support, not only in this CP election, but also helping the RR when we were just starting. I consider myself fortunate to have many friends among you. Thanks for the solidarity!

Thank you to all the Independents and individuals in other parties who may have thrown a vote or two my way. I truly do appreciate it.

And thank you to all of those who voted for someone else. Thanks for engaging in the process.


CABINET
Kody5 has agreed to leave his cushy job over at Education and lose more sleep as he takes over at Defense.
The rest of the Cabinet will remain the same. Except for Education being temporary vacant.

Foreign Affairs Herr Vootsman
Deputy Secretary Clinton

WORK TO DO.
We have had a stable government for a while now and it has worked pretty well. So, I do not intend on changing much. More like fine tuning it.
But stable does not have to be stagnant.
We know that there are many areas that we can and need to improve on.

Player Engagement/Retention
Tough nut to crack, but one we will attempt to address.
That is a whole other article.

Wall watchers
We have lots of tws and not enough people to watch walls. Especially during real wars when our tws may be vulnerable to sabotage. I will be putting together a small group of dedicated players to help keep our tws secure.

Media
I am not going to be able to produce a bunch of media for you. I am not good at it, and I have other things to spend time on.
However, I will encourage other people to provide entertainment and education to our Citizens.

Domestic
There has always been debate about what and how much stuff the government should provide for the Citizens.
Personally, I am all for giving away as much stuff as we can. And I do. But I cannot run the government that way. I must work within a budget set by Congress.
Currently there is only one program funded by the government. G.I.M.P.
The other ones, VAT and Kody's Tin Can, are privately funded. So, there is the opportunity for more government funded programs.
But what do our Citizens really need/want?
I would like to have that conversation with the Country and see what they think.
Foreign Affairs
Or
The part of the game that most of you do not seem interested in.
Now obviously many of you do care about it, so I am not talking to you.
But there is a whole other world out there to engage with. To be aware of. So, pull up the map sometime and see what is going on outside our Country. And again, I am not talking about everyone, just the people it applies too. And to those who do pay attention, thank you very much!

Defense
We are in good hands with Kody5 taking over MoD. I foresee no drastic changes in our current military stance. We will continue to acquire more tws as we can. Herr Vootsmans has FA on lockdown.

Got long, sorry.

So once again, a heartfelt thank you to everyone for their support and love!

Shout out to MollyMock for reminding me to write this.
