Band of Brothers military units air dropping into California
US Army on the move in California
I may be the last to say it, but I feel, as someone who watched the fall of our American "empire" to the Russians, who once were our friends, that I'll say it the best. Welcome home, Pacific Coast. Welcome home to our citizens who communed there, ran companies for American expats, the whole nine. As someone who watched our "world" tumble down, the gratification and satisfaction that I feel as a player, in watching everyone's hard work finally culminate into this, is hard to express accurately. I'm overjoyed.
Despite claims by one who ran away from duties, this plan was never the sole work of any one individual and to claim otherwise is not only ostentatious, but downright demeaning to the myriad of people who worked to execute it.
Claiming that people were worried about MPPing China is the only correct assertion made in said statement, mostly because it was against our NAP at the time, which you, as CP, had every opportunity to change, throw out, or end. If you truly think that the administration and especially myself, wasn't in constant contact with
saintshaka privately, behind the scenes, you're truly as ignorant as I suspected you to be.
Arrogance and bombast is not a solid substitute for common sense and work ethic. Rudimentary plans were always in the works for the military reacquisition of OUR territory, should the need arise and no diplomatic solution be found. The people who waited patiently for the right time to strike deserve more credit and respect than most people have given them. Especially those of us who are old enough to remember the original occupation. If you honestly think we enjoyed "kissing Russia's butt," you'd better think again. False security is a primary function of diplomacy, and it bought us time. Time to grow, time to rebuild, time to rank, train, build up an infrastructure that could put us toe to toe with the Russians on more even terms.
There was always a plan. In the words of General "Mad" Anthony Wayne: "Our officers and men behaved like men who are determined to be free."
In domestic news, the FSU is welcoming our bros in the [N][A][R] to feel free to run their candidates with us. Between the two of us, we should really shake up the culture in congress this term. I'd also like to take the time to announce that I'm making a return to politics and will be running for congress this term.
I believe it's time to cut down on the procedural bullcrap and make congress do what it's supposed to. Work to better the populace's conditions mechanically, communicate and to put it simply: DO WORK, SON. FSU candidates won't be elected to stroke egos or roleplay for more metagame bullshit laws that create more hinderances to actual progress. We'll be there to make congress communicate with the public, encourage them to publicize their voting habits and give solid reasons why they represented you, the public, in that way.
Despite petty jealousies and sour graping from resigned politicians, we're not a typical party, nor are we the status quo. We're here to make the machine run better.
If anyone has a problem with that, I suggest they go join him in irrelevance. ;-)
For those of you who dislike long walls of text: I rebut a resigned politicians claims, dismissing it as simply sour grapes, announce my candidacy for congress, and make a statement on the congression mission of the Freedom Stands United Party.

May your paths to success be short and fulfilling.
For to win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
