Another takeover.

Hey eUSA. Now.. there is a major issue that is really annoying me, and every prospectful settler and new eRepublikan.

POLITICAL TAKE OVERS
Commonly referred to as "TO", it is a highly disliked attack. It is an action that, results in the theft of hundreds, even THOUSANDS of gold. This action is performed mainly, and I cite these because they are the most popular: Iranian (claimed not to be part of government), Indonesian, Turkish, and Romanian (these guys are definitely affiliated with the romanian gov)

Basically, you and a group of other thieves go to a country on the day before elections, but the 23rd of each month for congress. They make a party, and then they put up as many congressional candidates as possible... then.. an enormous flock of people jump into the country, vote, and leave. It's happened in most of the new countries, resulting in the theft of over a thousand of gold.

Well, one particular case is the country of Singapore. Former eUSA Joint Chiefs Chairman, William Shafer, led a group of economic and military minded people to Singapore. Quickly setting up a party and companies, they were leading the country to glory. Then.. the takeovers began. Romanians and Iranians fought over the 1,000 gold available in that country. One of the girls serving under Shafer, gave me this quote on IRC; "Uncle Sam didn't want a scandal"

So... it brings a sour taste to mouth, when I have to say when the most populated, and freedom loving country in this game can't stop theft. For fear.. of a scandal. The hypocrisy is incredible. Whose government led a TO of South Korea... (justin's). Rise up eMericans, and vote for a proper candidate this coming elections. One who can raise eUSA exports, with his extensive economical mind. And one who knows what the hell he is doing, and won't allow blatant theft to bypass his presidency.

You would think ATLANTIS would step it up... oh wait, its dead. Forgot.

The US did try to help some of the new country's keep there gold. We didn't have enough resources to try to stop them all and ended up trying to stop one.

I would like to thank all those volunteers that gave of their time and wellness to travel to another country to try and stop a takeover.
