The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. The average income tax rate is 19.3%, but much higher for the wealthy.

Millions of devastated 7-year-olds are denied astronaut and ballerina training. Crime is relatively low, thanks to a capable police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Nelson Wilbury's national animal is the Monkey Man.
