FDR was pretty good.
I almost made my worst a four way tie because of him. He is terrible in the fact that he increased the size of the government way too much. Not to mention he made one of the most broken welfare systems in the world.
Just forget about the fact that he ended the Depression, created tens of thousands of jobs, and led us through the deadliest war in European history, right?
Well I'm extremely anti big government and he increased the government's size almost more than any other president in history. Not to mention he made the broken welfare system we have today and his fiscal policies were all around terrible. In the end his effects on the economy were negative in the long term.
That's probably why our opinions differ. I'm no fan of big government, but I'm not really that strongly against it. But how does our current welfare system resemble the one he made? I thought his whole idea was making people work for the government to make money (Civilian Conservation Corps and all that).

Does "Coca-Cola Life" have aspartame in it? Because if so, it's worse for you than regular coke.

OT: Coffee is all.

No, it uses Stevia leaf extract, I try to stay away from artificially sweetened drinks, but hey, you live in the US, you've got corn syrup to contend with.

Thank god that shit is banned here
Okay, good. Stevia is the best sweetener, but 100% sugar is also good. Corn syrup is bad, but aspartame is the worst. That shit will literally kill you.

Nobody is 100% bad. Of course even the bad ones did some good things.
I'd consider FDR one of the good ones that did some bad things.

The Owari lands on the moon, and the atmosphere synthesizer is turned on. Immediately, a colossal roar nearly splits the eardrums of all the Talon men on the moon. A giant shockwave erupts from the synthesizer, creating clouds, air, and ozone all around the shuttle. The men begin preparations to form a colony in that spot.

β€”Talon Company Updateβ€”

Military: 140,000 elite soldiers equipped with combat armor and helmets, wielding 5.56 assault rifles. 760,000 android soldiers equipped with metal armor, wielding 5.56 assault rifles. 1,000 soldiers stationed on top of southern border wall, equipped with combat armor and wielding anti-material rifles. Sixteen vertibirds. (901,000 soldiers total)

Technology:
Auto-doc, hydroponics, Great Khan chem recipes, wind energy, solar energy, android manufacturing, space shuttle tech, atmosphere synthesizer.

Territory:
Fort Bannister (DC), Underworld (DC), Hubris Comics (DC), The Institute (MA), Bitter Springs (NV), Maryland, Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, Ohio, Indiana, southern Florida, Quebec, eastern Ontario.

Energy sources:
Maple Ridge Wind Farm (NY), Marble River Wind Farm (NY), Locust Ridge Wind Farm (PA), Blue Creek Wind Farm (OH), Long Island Solar Farm (NY), Fowler Ridge Wind Farm (IN), Meadow Lake Wind Farm (IN), oil extraction (Canada).

Economy/Internal affairs:
Controlled Capitalism, with higher pay for government jobs, especially the military. Due to the vast amount of land and work that needs doing, unemployment is low. Territory is extremely safe and controlled, due to idle military forces being assigned to constantly patrol the streets, shooting ghouls, mutants, and raiders on sight. Quality of life is extremely high, with all residents having access to basic luxuries such as hot showers, electricity, and clean water. Because of this, taxes are able to be moderately high with little complaint. Official currency is the Talon Company Dollar (TCD) which has a value of 1:1 to caps.

Other assets: The espionage agency Talon Intelligence Sect (TIS); 50-foot tall steel wall along Talon's southern border; water purification plant in New Jersey; hydroponically grown marijuana which is sold to the general populace; production of chems which are sold to non-Talon wastelanders; swath of steel factories across Pennsylvania that produce weaponry, ammunition, armor, vertibirds, and various other products.

Diphenhydramine.

Unlike Slash, my suggestion is actually reasonable.
On the contrary, take 600mg+ of DPH and "enjoy" yourself for a while.

Talon Company announces the successful launch of the Owari Shuttle. In construction for the last year, the Owari Shuttle is a relatively simple space vessel. However, the main feature of the shuttle, and what the bulk of Project Owari has been focused on, is the atmosphere synthesizer, which has been in research for the past five years. Currently limited in scope, this synthesizer allows a small radius of habitable atmosphere to be created in nearly any environment. The current range of the atmosphere synthesizer is 2 million square miles.

I don't know if you all would think this is a good idea. But I thought it would be cool if our political leaders die eventually. And then we make new leaders with new policies and such. Don't know,just an idea.
Sure, but I hope you know that only 13 years have passed in-game.

Yes, I know. Also,how many pages make up a year?
It's actually 17, I did the math wrong. And a year is every 3 pages.

Elder Neo sends a traceless transmission to chairman class. Asking what the point of attacking us was.

Elder Neo sends a traceless transmission to the citizens of the enclave.* you have forced my hand, president TBlocks. And now your citizens will pay the price as mine did, a bomb has been planted underneath your city, the same bomb I used to ensure the destruction of your armies. Citizens of the enclave, do you really think the outcast initiated such and assault on our own capital?! Your leader is lying to you! He is the one that tried to wipe us out. And now, my vengeance shall be returned in full! Citizens of the enclave, if you have any sense within you you will rebel, REBEL! Or you will burn alongside the very soldiers that betrayed my people! You have ten minutes to make your choice. Leave or die. It's up to you"
*transmission ends*, nationwide panic is caused in the enclave cities.
See, now that's godmod. How did you get to his city? Who installed the bomb? Where did you post the progress of planting the bomb earlier? I know that this is only your third UN game, but I wasn't this blind on even my first game.

This is only a stunt to instill fear in the enclave people. There is no bomb, its just a scare tactic.
Ah, that makes more sense.

Going AFK for like a half hour, btw
