"Vote for parrot for an another wasted month of an inactive presidency."
Parrot
"Vote for Francis DeBoyle! Parrot; not that active. His goals should have been achieved already."
"Vote for Francis DeBoyle tomorrow! For actual change!"
All these were yelled by Francis DeBoyle in South Korea's message box; messages of hope and change; change from what? People knew not. But, just change.
And, I took the butt of his criticism as the incumbent president. I took the butt for trying to do my best. I was insulted for serving my country; unjustly.
Francis sai
😛
"Parrot has not done much for Korea from my point of view. Yes, he has done much more than past ones, but like he said, and what is quite obvious, he has not got much time for eRepublik. He set himself goals, of which some of them, to a certain point, were achieved. He did not give many government jobs, for example.
"
And, Francis promised to change.
So, allow me to compare myself to Francis using his criticism:
1."He has not got much time for eRepublik"
Checking Francis's newspaper, he produced six articles during his presidency. And, within the past 20 days(or, the last 2/3rds of his term), he has produced only two articles.
Compare it to my newspaper publications during while I was president. Countining only articles regarding to the presidency, there are 15.
That's 150% more than Francis's publications.
2."He set himself goals, of which some of them, to a certain point, were achieved. "
Now, I'll say some my goals weren't achieve; which was why I was seeking a second term. You can only do so much during one time period. I was constantly working on them though; you can check my previously listed paper.
Let's check Francis's goal list though, and compare it to what he actually did.
A."To have a mixed economy"
Out of the top five companies in South Korea, none of them are government run. In short, this economy is not a mixed economy.
B."Creating government positions "
Didn't happen. He started to say he was going to,, but if you check his paper, the only person he appointed was Peter, who I had already appointed and already held that position. He didn't create any new positions at all. He just reiterated what I did after criticizing me for it.
C."To lower unemployment and inflation in the country,"
Unemployment was never a problem to begin with. Secondly, inflation DID lower during his administration, but he never did anything to combat it. It just happened to happen.
So, as we have seen, Francis really didn't accomplish any of his goals at all.
3."He did not give many government jobs, for example."
South Korean Weapons was actually higher on the employment list during my administration than it is right now. It was within the top five, now it's not there at all.
And, Francis concludes with:
"I believe I can do more than Parrot did. "
So, what did Francis accomplish?
He directly plagiarized my citizen message and just changed up a few words here and there to mean the same thing. (The original I wrote is found here.)
And, what else? Not much at all. Not much at all.
I post this not as a criticism of Francis but rather as a signal Korea. Most of you haven't been in the political spectrum as long as I have. Most of you don't know what people do in this game's politics.
You see, most people in this game just want power. They want to get elected for the medal and then not execute the power of the office. Locally, this has resulted in three Korean presidents who sat on their tails during their administrations not accomplishing anything, really.
Most countries don't actually have any people that want to do anything. They have a bunch of lazy people that sit around, don't do anything, resulting in nothing getting done. And every now and then, someone publishes articles, gets elected, and goes inactive.
South Korea: you're under the threat of that happening again. Right now, I don't believe the presidential candidates being proposed are going to actually do anything for South Korea. Really, I don't. And as a result, you're going to have another almost stagnant month of government where nothing gets done.
You can stop this though. There are two people in your country that can make this country better and will actually work for it. And those two are Alfagram and Aarons-Miller. Both of them actually care about what exactly's done in government and have the experience and will to actually do things. As for Brodie, I can't be sure. I don't know the guy. Whether or not he does something, you'll find out. But I'm telling you, Aarons Miller or Alfagram would do good. Consider them one of these days.
Take this advice or not; I don't care. I'm in Switzerland working for the Theocrats right now because they know how to run a country without fancy political talk and empty promises. To be honest, it'd actually probably just be best if everyone in this country became a Theocrat.

Brodies cool
dear theocrat, i am not sure if you have heard of glorious leader, but who has not?
i would like to say that glorious leader is possibly the leader you are looking for because he is glorious and a good leader.
also because brodie is a terrible leader
Rock on!
Hello Parrot.
Was wondering if you'd disappeared (no article in last 17 days!) or wheter you were busy helping out the moldavians.
Anyway, little corrections...
A. SKWeapons is still in the top 5 as you can discount FoodforFun and Gibraltar Gifts as their figures are misleading. SKWeapons = Gov Company is another matter altogether.
B. Aside from Peter there's also your appointment of MoD (Aarons) plus Francis has added a minister of Foreign affairs and a couple of diplomats to other nations.
C. Inflation has been up and down throughout the last month due to the measures taken to improve the value of the KRW against the gold mark. The president is aware and informed of the economic outlook. (PowerSwedens arrival did deflect issues somewhat.)
And myself (Alfagrem) and Aarons-Miller are somewhat unelectable as we are somewhat opposed on most points of order and unable to function together.
And whilst my preferred candidate is not running - I fully back Mr.Brodie as the most active and politically involved South Korean we have available.
Finnaly, don't be a stranger m'kay.
I knew this would happen. Francis is a terrible president.
and ignore that leader shit
The glorious leader is not shit, the glorious leader is the one leader that can bring a glorious new Korea to the world. Hence why he is the glorious leader. Elect the glorious leader to lead Korea to a glorious new tomorrow.
Out of curiosity, Alfagrem, who is your prefered candidate? 😛
Also, Parrot, this is getting quite old. You decided to move to eSwitzerland. You left eKorea. We've had enough of your bullshit. Either go to Switzerland and stop bothering us, or come backt o Korea and be that pain in the ass we all know you are.
Elect me as your leader and I will lead Korea into a new, unified way. No one will starve, no one will be poor. We will be a prosperous nation that will reject the imperialist Westerners and Japanese. Our Dear Leader will guide us through these times and bring us a glorious Korea.
Oh, I done with Korea, Yonai. What I'm doing right now actually enforces what I have said; I'm not coming back to a country that voted out a perfectly capable leader for someone who violated everything they promised on the campaign trail.
I'm actually glad I lost the election so that I wouldn't have to waste time butting heads over the usless political gain. Switzerland, when things are all said and done is superior in every way; even if I were president, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish nearly a fraction of what Dio Brando has over there.
BRO POWER.

BRO FIST
IF YOU DONT POST THIS TO 5 BROS THEN YOU ARENT A BRO
So you're done with korea you just wanted to come back and moan a little more?
Try to address Glorious leader's concerns a bit more, my only criticisms.
I like how when I point out that you guys essentially failed to elect a viable leader, you all say that I'm moaning.
Once again, I'm glad I lost. I'm just pointing out that you guys are messing yourselves over.
Parrot you seem like a competent president and I really support everything you stand for EXCEPT for the whole "not praising our Glorious Leader" thing. You should incorporate that into your next campaign!
Praise Dear Leader, and have a glorious day!
