Agenda

Economy

• Sultan proposed a huge project to combat world hunger and stimulate the economy: Pizza Drones!!!
  • He also proposed a gold standard, subsidising public services
• Hans Schultz proposed an international money fund to aid in areas struggling economically.
• Putin: We need business to understand its social responsibility, that the main task and objective for a business is not to generate extra income and to become rich and transfer the money abroad, but to look and evaluate what a businessman has done for the country, for the people, on whose account he or she has become so rich.
• Johnny C proposes printing more money. He also proposes he start an organisation to raise money which people join at a price, they recruit 3 people each and get a share of their payment and so on.
• Auntie Mabel & Pippin propose a Global Health Service, based on AoA's "DiNHA" scheme so that individuals are not overwhelmed by crippling debt whenever they fall ill, thus giving people more money to spend and keeping them healthy enough to be a productive citizen. She will also teach citizens how to save money by stitching old clothes and making good meals at low prices with some old fashioned know how.
• Ula proposes that the people of Arsinos are too self indulgent and that the failing economy if they stop being so self-centred and dedicate their lives to the cats of Arsinos.
• The Canadian Devil - "Hey, guy, shut up for a second will ya. With the tried and tested "Somewhat Enjoyable Taxation Initiative," as well as the introduction of the Canadough currency, I'll make Arsinos great once again! Not only is the SETI entirely voluntary but it will provide all nations of Arsinos with a greater influx of cash to be used on hospitals, schools and ice hockey rinks, eh, creating a healthier, smarter and more enjoyable tomorrow, and if that wasn't all once I'm voting into office I'm giving every citizen over the age of 15 a free stack of Canadough! A vote for Beelzebot is a vote for happiness, buddy."

Monty

• A measured contingency plan is favored by Hans Schultz with the suggestion that Monty poses no real threat and that Arsinos will always proveil no matter what is thrown at us.
• Hans also proposed he pick companies to help better equip UN security forces
  • Arkos Davion agreed the UN forces needed better equiping but disputed that the president should be the one who decides on the supplier.
    • Hans rebutted saying Dalanian tech didn't save them in their failed defence of Bananalon
    • Davions response was that this is irrelevent and that not one single person alone was competent. In addition he argued that Hans was implying the deal would be for one company and that this would be unhealthy for the market as a whole.
  • Black agreed but cited her proven military track record as a reason she would be the most competent candidate
• Putin: "Our airplanes will be carrying out air strikes exclusively on terrorist hideouts in Outland. And this will continue wherever these terrorists are. We will track down terrorists everywhere. If they are in an airport, then it would be in an airport. I beg your pardon, but we WILL hunt them down and kill them even in a toilet. End of story".
• Drugged up Johnny C punched an audience member screaming "COME AT ME HORSEMAN"
