Why are we always concerned? Why not Nine, Number Nine? It seemed to work for a song 4 or 5 decades ago. There I go again, more numbers. It always seems to be about the numbers. I wonder where I could have gotten this obsession with numbers? It must be time to eat some pi. AHGGG, there they are again. can't seem to escape them!

Damn, I'm an American, damn it I have to find someone to blame and invade. If I just had the right numbers. Troupes, money, allies. Give me these three, Ah hell, more numbers, and I can accomplish just about anything. Today is supposed to be about silly things and I check the date and the eRep day and all is see is another string of numbers.

I see CC36,165,893, which is what I am told the recent war cost us and our allies in battle orders. I'm not sure how much more was spent in airstrikes, but does it really matter? It's just more numbers. I'm sure we will reimburse our allies for their help. How could we not, they could obviously kick our collective rears if we do not. Our share alone was CC28,869,438. About 72 days of CBO transfers. But do I complain? No, I am a free citizen of the eUSA and am grateful we have the extra scratch to pass around.

Another number, we have achieved an economic miracle. It now costs just as much or near enough to make a q7 tank as it has value on the market. This number assumes you are paying for full material costs as well as the very inflated labor cost out of pocket to manufacture the dread weapon. Of course, this number is silly, considering you are likely making your own raw materials rather than buying on the market if you make such an item. But still, at some point is becomes easier and more profitable to simply sell the raw material and forgo the weapons manufacture entirely. More numbers everywhere. It's OK Ma, we'll make it all up by selling in volume.

Is there a point to all of this? I hope not, but I leave that conclusion for you to make. OK, OK, I conclude an economic war being waged against us, but everyone knows I'm crazy.

Are you important? Then my party of one wants you! Come join us and help cobble together a coalition for change.
