Average income is 31,038 Anti-vax dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Karen Union Against Vaccines's national animal is the Karen, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
