The Perverted Mind of Piero Sraffa is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by COMRADE-FUHRER SRAFFA with an iron fist, and remarkable for its museums and concert halls, digital currency, and keen interest in outer space. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless, devout population of 13.761 billion Nomads are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The relatively small, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government is primarily concerned with Defense, although Industry, Education, and Law & Order are also considered important, while Social Policy and Environment are ignored. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Newd England. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.2%.
The frighteningly efficient Nomadic economy, worth a remarkable 4,712 trillion Chicken Nugets a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Information Technology, Retail, and Uranium Mining. Black market activity is notable. Average income is an amazing 342,445 Chicken Nugets, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,871,700 per year while the poor average 32,029, a ratio of 58.4 to 1.
Mining is the nation's most dangerous occupation, COMRADE-FUHRER SRAFFA can't hear a thing when the unwashed masses throw rocks at the new state limousine, the government's religious works are headed by a New Age guru, and drunk drivers are sentenced to death. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown. Piero Sraffa's national animal is the Pelican, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to toxic air pollution, and its national religion is The Church of SRAFFALOGY.
Piero Sraffa is ranked 9,426th in the world and 19th in Fifth Empire for Lowest Crime Rates, with 102.15 law-abiding acts per hour.
