Guest Dopey Report post Posted January 9, 2003 Seeing that many of us are now at NationStates.net, and noticing that my country is now a Psychotic Dictatorship, I write this post. What would you do if YOU were now the absolute DICTATOR of the United States of America. For time sake list 3 things you'd do first. Also what would you change your name/title to? And would you or would you not have a senate/supreme court/ anything of authority besides yourself? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Dangerous A Report post Posted January 9, 2003 I'd run it like the mob. I'd have a consigleire (councel) to advise me. It would be like the mob in that only family or people who were of my race (which is a mix of filipino and caucasian) could be official members. Hell yeah, Eurasians rule!!!!!

Guest NoCalMike Report post Posted January 9, 2003 First 3 things: Pull out every troop everywhere from around the world. Inform the nations they occupied. We are no longer your problem, and you are no longer ours. Install solar panels on every home in america(realistically, it would be a certain percentage over time of course) Mandate a living wage for everyone. Whether you scrub floors, or flip burgers. A service for the american people no matter what it is, most likely earns you the right to room and board and food... anything more as far as luxuries, well that is up to you. I would have a supreme court, because I could not handle everything at all hours and days. I also would have advisors, although in a dictatorship I am not sure if advisors would amount to anything other than "yes-men" So they may be no good anyways. Seeing as how I would strive not to be an "evil" or "mean" dictator, I would try to have advisors that also oppose my views, to keep my mind well rounded. Ummm....yah...I guess that is a start!?!

Guest So what? I liked bubble boy Report post Posted January 9, 2003 Well, first off. I also play "nationstates" and I like the "kingdom" way of life for my nation. If your the Leader that I am, then you will have a wonderful country. Second, make sure the people are happy, but not to the point where they make the rules. Third, make sure that common sense is being used when passing laws. Again, if you have Great Authority (Jesus), then you have great morals and a peaceful way of life.

Guest IDrinkRatsMilk Report post Posted January 9, 2003 The first thing I would do is enslave the populace, and make them toil in my underground sugar mines. Then I would use the limitless slave labor at my disposal to build a laser to blow up a planet you've never heard of. Then I'd legalize marijuana. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest The Metal Maniac Report post Posted January 9, 2003 I'd start by changing the laws so that just about everything was punishable by public floggings, with various numbers of lashings depending on the crime involved, then I'd get myself a nice secret police squad, and go from there.

Guest Dopey Report post Posted January 9, 2003 --CNN nightly news. "Emperor Dopey has made a decree, that all followers of 'The State' are to be rounded up and held for questioning. This edict was issued today following an out-break of irrational rantings of the brown-shirted thugs, who were found drooling over their computers and chanting, "The State gives us Koolaid". Although no deaths have occurred yet, the Emperor feels that for their own safety, the followers of 'The State' must be taken into custody." "For CNN this is Jim Jones reporting live from the Palace"-- Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Kotzenjunge Report post Posted January 9, 2003 Puh-LEAZE. I shouldn't be surprised, considering the lack of imagination that was shown in your "Preacher Rumble" thread, but surely you can come up with a better fake news story than that. I fear that with the little that I have to do after being fired, and this new threat, the State may have to make a comeback, a REAL one this time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
