Lately, I discovered the concept of the micronation. It appears that creating one of these takes nothing more than flatly claiming a piece of land as one's own and proceeding to print oneself money while making royal claims. I also hear it might be a good idea to draw up a constitution so you have laws and stuff.
So, from here on out, I declare myself the Grand Poobah Ruler of the Sovereign State of Reedisia, the piece of land formerly known as some apartment in Chicago. As Grand Poobah ruler, I have decided that Reedisia will use a combination of perhaps the two worst economic systems in order to form one of the best. I propose that communism and feudalism are combined into Reedism. It will work as follows: everybody will work and take what they need to live and survive, and as a result everybody will be happy and I will have an effective communist paradise. However, once a person takes all that they need, all that's leftover will be passed up to the next group of people, until eventually all the leftover wealth ends up being given to me. Of course, to preserve the communist feel of equality the social groups of people will consist of me and everybody else. That way almost everybody will feel equal, and me being the Grand Poobah Ruler will seem like a small discrepancy in comparison.
It was brought to my attention that nations, no matter how small, do need some citizens. At the moment the sole citizen seems to consist of me, which hampers the whole me-sitting-around-being-given-my-citizen's-money thing. So here is my formal plea for citizenry of the sovereign state of Reedisia. There are no immigration laws at the moment. You will be happy and free and your life will consist of puppies and rainbows. In case you were wondering, I was hand-picked for the job by God himself and cannot die, for I will rise out of the ashes of my fireplace.
Constitution, laws, and other shit pending
I want my puppy first.
