Nah, there's no marijuana mentioned in Tropico.

I know it isn't in there... but most things in my post apply.

I will always declare martial law.

I will get Tropico II.

Impose a flat tax in lieu of the graduated income tax, end corporate taxes, but require a minimum dividend based on profits; free all prisoners on condition they leave the United States never to return; impose term limits on congressmen; outlaw unions where the average union worker is making 125% of the average income for all workers; exclude women from combat operations; finish with Saddam and impose democracy in Iraq; arrest all Palestinian leadership involved in terrorism and put them on trial before the ICC; make it more than clear to the Saudi's that any further support for terrorism will result in a "regime change."

This is only a partial list, of course.

I would somehow like to fix our relationship with the Europeans, but I have no solution for that one.

Umm, where would the prisoners go? Which country could you convince to take them?

And why exclude women from combat operations?

clean house.

meaning: launch every single nuke under my disposal at china, india, africa, and russia, to eliminate much of the population problem, while firebombing europe and south america with thermobaric warheads.

naturally, this should touch off a global thermonuclear war, but sometimes you just gotta autoclave the house to clean it good.

besides, it also takes care of the problem with war materiel.

Let me seee.........Mwa ha-ha-ha-ha-ha

1. Have a steep progressive tax. I mean STEEP.

2. Those citizens that work for the government/state and hold office in area's that improve society (Police, Health Care, etc) will either get tax write-offs OR have pay increase with a diffferent taxation system. Those that directly contribute to the welfare of society will gain the most benefits.

3. Corporate Monopolies will be broken up by the head of state. No more Microsoft

4. Any head of any corporation that is found guilty of a "Kenneth Lay" will have his/hear assets seized by the government and have a large portion liquidated and rolled over into state health programs or public utilities. Also, those convicted will have mandatory FEDERAL jail time. Those responsible will no longer "Take the 5th".

5. There will be MASSIVE campaign finance reforms passed. Contributors to capaigns will only be allowed to give $250 max donations.

6. There MUST be bidding for government contracts. No bidding=no contract awarded. Project will instead be assigned to government.

7. Oversight committee for governmental spending. Government will have to submit documentation for expenditures.

8. Judicial Branch will now be elected by the people, instead of appointed by administration. This will (hopefully) allow the Judicial Branch of government from being a "puppet" of the executive branch.

9. Massive undertaking to find alternate fuel sources. Tax breaks for solar, hydro, wind powerplants. Government subsidies for those companies that wish to start up.

10. Nuclear disarmament, allowing the U.S. to possess "only" 100 nuclear weapons.

11. Signing of the Kyoto Treaty. Creation of Committee that will oversee succeeding adminstration to follow accords.

12. Environmental protection acts that will protect environment. (Example: "Decree" that Alaska Wilderness cannot be touched until 3000 c.e.)

13. Industrial pollution will be cut in half or have their companies seized by government.

14. Withdraw support of both Palestine and Israel. Will take an objective view instead of supporting one-side.

15. frankychan gets free sandwiches for life. This will be a decree that cannot be overruled.

1. Start initiatives to improve relations with South American countries.

2. Develop alternative energy fuel sources, and look at closer-to-home oil in the meantime (eg. Alaska, Canada, Mexico).

3. Increase penalties on corporate fraud.

4. Weaken the culture of realpolitik. No more talk of "He's our son of a *****" when people like Saddam are involved.

5. Increase restrictions on drugs and alcohol.

6. Get Bill Clinton back to be President after I step down, but remember to get a few phone numbers from him before leaving the White House.

First of all Vesayen, why is it only domestic politics with the Americans? On what planet do you live? There's a world out there you know. I know you're a little cut off geographically, but cheese... Self-absorbed, protectionist, isolationist, only had selfish reasons when you finally involved yourself in WW2. Had to be attacked on your own ground. Just not good enough!

Since Norwegians were the first to discover America around 1000 AD I would allow America to get associate status to Norway. The same way Puerto Rico is to America.

Don't even bother contending "who 1st discovered America" with me. I know more than most ppl on the subject. Period.

Norwegian laws would apply so you could have the chance of being the best country in the world, as the UN has proclaimed Norway to be for the last 2 years. You could achieve the status of being a welfare-state which Norway has been for years and years and to which you're not even close! We're also one of the richest countries on earth.

Heard a silly statement the other day... Oprah W said that a woman should be lucky she was born in the USA because of the health care system I'm sure you're lucky if you have the money to pay for it like Oprah. I don't have words for such an ignorant statement.

Of course intellectualism would be promoted. There's a great deficiency in that department.

Make sure the government never again harbors the likes of Jesse Helms, Newt Gingrich, Trent Lott, Strom Thurmond, D!ck Armey, "W", Bob Barr, Mithc McConnell, John Breaux, Sam Nunn, Richard Shelby, Bill Clinton, or Al Gore: sell off the states of the former CSA, one by one, to the highest bidders (Alabama/Mississippi might have to be a "buy one, get one free" deal).
