Hey! Just flew in from North Korea and boy are my arms tired (and bleeding)

*ba-dum *cymbal crash

Anyway, generally my articles are not very serious and people criticized me last time I ran for Congress as an immature, inexperienced boy. That is not true. It means I have a great sense of humor and may be a bit younger, but not necessarially not as smart. I am dedicated to helping our eRepublik nation, and I have a few things to say.

Remember the Uncle Sam impeachment incident? Good congressman and presidents (as I mentioned in my article back then) will be involved. That will be no trouble as because I am a bit younger, and thus have less work to do over the summer. I am willing to dedicate my time to helping our country in this site and I have the time to read every single comment, every single bill, every single proposal. I am open to the people's voice and will consider everything fairly. That is who I will be if I get voted in. Lots of people say that, but I have more time than them, which puts me at an advantage. I want to help and be important in our community and it's about time I did some things in eUSA.

First of all, I'd support a moderate tax raise. Why? There are many reasons. For one I will support extra taxes to be used on supporting infrastructural improvements like hospitals and defense systems. We as a nation will be better suited to be a stronger people, who can conquer all who oppose our nation, who seek to destroy us, and those who have a corrupt systems in the eWorld.

I would also be interedted in other things such as giving subsidies to companies that make Iron or Weapon manufacturing so that citizens may have acess to more weapons to fight. Not only does fighting increase our nation's prestige, but it also increases citizens' overall well-being. That is probably one of the most important things about wars. They have the ability to help our country in numerous ways.

And here's an idea some of you may not have heard of. Currency trading and investing. I am interested in investing and I feel that our nation can fund ourselves even more by using the taxes to trade currencies. It is probably one of the easiest ways for our country to make money and despite the supposed complicity, I have no doubt that the Congressman elected will have no trouble with such a task. Perhaps then, we can even lower taxes on such things like food that our citizens so terribly need.

I also believe our nation should take the time to welcome newcomers a little bit more and perhaps even give them a stimulus package, courtesy of our country. Our average citizen level is 13 rathe than the worldwide average of 14. Why not help newcomers get a head start and become involved in eRepublik?

When dealing with foreign nations, I believe that we should embargo countries with terrible leadership. Those countries need a better leader than an oppressor and I for one would not support them. If anything, they'd be the first to have a war declaration. I have noticed there have been a lot of alliances lately proposed by Congress, but we should be taking down dictatorial regimes. Involvement in world affairs is paramount and we need to be able to expand our nation and go against world injustice. That is why I think embargoes are very important. I already have a few countries in mind that I'd like to talk about...

Businesses. I believe that there should be a higher minimum wage than 1 dollar. Even the lowest quality food at the cheapest price leaves ony a few cents leftover for fledgling citizens.

And there are many other issues I would like to address, including ANYTHING you guys have. I promise you that I will be a great Congressman, despite what my opponents say about me.

I encourage anyone who reads this to seriously consider me as a candidate. Mail me questions and comments. I am more than elated to recieve mail, even if it is harsh criticism (seriously, i'm used to it by now)

Best wishes to all the other candidates.

Sincerely,
