The High Fidelity Commune of A Classless Society is a gargantuan, efficient nation, ruled by Aleister with an even hand, and remarkable for its ban on automobiles, enforced nudity, and devotion to social welfare. The hard-nosed, humorless, devout population of 30.508 billion people are prohibited from doing almost everything except voting, which they do timidly and conservatively.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, moralistic, socially-minded morass — juggles the competing demands of Education, Healthcare, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of High Fidelity Communal Music Centre. The average income tax rate is 95.1%.

The frighteningly efficient human economy, worth a remarkable 4,996 trillion production stamps a year, is driven almost entirely by government activity, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is an enormous, deeply entrenched, highly specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Book Publishing, and Beef-Based Agriculture. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. State-owned companies are the norm. Average income is an impressive 163,783 production stamps, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.8 times as much as the poorest.

Punk rockers smash it up and then clean it up, even the nation's brussel sprouts are delicious and nutritious, governance is once again the domain of the elite, and nobody looks each other in the eye at neighborhood block parties any more. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. A Classless Society's national animal is the Crockow, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests, and its national religion is 10 Timeshares That'll Make You Say Uncle.

A Classless Society is ranked 13,134th in the world and 1st in Sinope for Lowest Crime Rates, with 101.8 law-abiding acts per hour.
