That's just idiotic... Hey guys! I was out of the nation seeing my sick nan and now I can't vote! Hey guys I was in a hospital and couldn't vote! Now I can never vote until I go through a messy system that makes no sense!

Onrei wrote:My biggest issue with compulsory voting is that it forces people who don't know a thing about politics or the candidates to vote on things they know nothing about. It happens already, sure, but it would only expediate the problem.
On the other hand, it might make more people pay attention and learn this stuff, but I doubt the majority of people would.

In that case add two more options. "I don't know politics" and "I don't like any of the above"!

Thembria SSR wrote:eep.. fines.. My parents told me they are getting fined for not having health insurance now.. Though how can you pay fines for it when you can't afford health insurance in the first place?

Ahh U.S. fines~ I love them! Hey! You're innocent of a crime but you are getting charged with one? Well... Now you have to pay the government to have your court hearing and for your defendant! Hey! Just got out of jail on parol? Guess what! Their's a fee for your parol officer! I know I know, you don't have a job yet and it's nearly impossible to get a job now because you 'stole' a loaf of bread to feed yourself! But don't worry yet! It's only $50 a month so you better get to it!

I hate U.S. fees...

That underrated and glorious feeling of when you get new boots. How firm and secure it feels and how the sole is not worn down.

You should. I did the same with my nation to make everything much more colorful and fun. I think my favorite part is how I made an android, magical girl, and Valkyria as triplets.

The interesting thing is that there are two contradictory stereotypes about U.S. jails I always hear. One is what you said yet another is poor people(usually homeless) purposely committing a misdemeanor crime to go to jail and get free food/care. So which is it?

People wouldn't choose them... That'd be too smart. Might jusT be my cynical mind speaking, but they wouldn't.

And ahh fines... Such fun! Give up ALL your monehs you don't have!

Both are true. People will usually commit theft under $5,000 and get sent to a 'luxury' prison for 6 months, these guys usually start doing their crimes early to mid autumn.

What's dumb, here in Alberta we have a medical server system so my medical files can be accessed anywhere in the province by any registered medical staff. BUT, in order to transfer my medical files to my new doctor I had to pay $130 to get it to him! WE have a system in place so that I don't need to transfer my files and yet I still had to do so and pay them money... It's so stupid...

That really is very, very dumb... Borderline extortion, even.

So I found this interesting game called Gal*Gun : Double Peace , which just launched on Steam. Apparently, it's an on-rails shooter featuring....love-struck anime girls as the enemy. It's um...interesting to say the least. Kinda reminds me of Vrolondia's experiences:

There are a LOT of stereotypes about American prisons and crime, and unfortunately a lot of them are true. I could go into a rant about prison reform, but I'm just jaded with how I view life right now.

Also, that Canadian excuse for extortion really should be checked out. Isn't this the same country that payed more money to investigate irregular spending of MPs than said MPs actually used for shady business? Ah well. Canada is nothing if not dedicated.

In the UK you can get fined if you do not register to vote when 18 years old without good reason, so its quite compulsory here too.

I'm always so sleepy.. why 5 hours of sleep not enough these days!?

I do not believe there is :(

Palearctic eurasia wrote:I do not believe there is :(

Sure there is: don't use the in-game stats at all!

That doesn't really help with how the nation appears at first glance, sure, but it's still a way to control the economy without issues! And every other aspect of the nation, for that matter...

Finduria wrote: What's a Valkyria?

Valkyrias are female mythological beigns of Norse mythology that guided the fallen warriors in battle to Valhala. (Short version)

What the others said. A female Norse warrior that leads fallen warriors to Valhalla. The game Valkyria Chronicles draws allusions from this. With females with Valkyrur blood being Valkyria and makes them way overpowered. Which also matches the triplets Selvaria(Valkyria), Reinforce(magical girl), KOS-MOS(android) perfectly because they are all over powered females but in different ways.

Battlefield 1 released a new trailer and it's way better than the other ones, especially the music--> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C-vAxVh8ins
