The Borderlands of Sequojeda is a massive, socially progressive nation, notable for its complete lack of prisons. Its compassionate, intelligent population of 1.491 billion love a good election, and the government gives them plenty of them. Universities tend to be full of students debating the merits of various civil and political rights, while businesses are tightly regulated and the wealthy viewed with suspicion.

It is difficult to tell where the omnipresent government stops and the rest of society begins, but it juggles the competing demands of the Environment, Education, and Public Transport. The average income tax rate is 56%, and even higher for the wealthy. The private sector is almost wholly made up of enterprising fourteen-year-old boys selling lemonade on the sidewalk, although the government is looking at stamping this out.

The arms industry is strictly regulated, police officers are seen patrolling the streets armed with satellite-guided truncheons, the police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs, and guns are banned. Crime -- especially youth-related -- is a serious problem, probably because of the country's utter lack of prisons. Sequojeda's national animal is the beaver, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its currency is the orbis.

Sequojeda is ranked 1003rd in the region and 66,481st in the world for Largest Defense Forces (per capita).

Ho appena fatto passare questa legge:

"I think you are both looney," says Calvin Silk, professor of liberal arts at Sequojeda National University. "All education should be open to everyone regardless of their grades in high school, economic status or academic prowess. Free college education should be available to every citizen of Sequojeda, no matter what the cost!"

Non oso pensare alla percentuale di tasse che mi ritroverò alla prossima visita.

Qualunque cosa sotto il 100%, e sei una dannata liberista.
