What are nanny laws?
I honestly have no clue, but sounds something an old yankee would say
They're laws put up because people don't have common sense
A nanny law is any law that the government passes to protect you from doing things like you want. Helmet laws, warning labels etc. In my neck of the woods the word yankee is a derogatory term.
Hard to object to helmet laws if your brain holder's split open on the pavement like a rotten watermelon
Except we needed those things because of the sue happy boomers. Those aren’t there to stop people from doing them, it’s so that people know “Hey stupid, this is on you if you do this”
Along with that we need to have an impact on people’s lives because unlike what many Americans over 40 think, what they do has an impact on others. Case in point obesity, it costs the US healthcare system 300 billion USD to deal with these people
The great JFK once said “Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country”, sadly that was eroded by the boomer’s favored president, Reagan. There is pain involved in taking care of your family, your community, your people. That is why we pay taxes, why we build schools and infrastructure and why we have welfare. So that we leave no american behind and that we can lead the world hand in hand, not divided. It’s not about me, its about us
The problem is not whether you are a Republican or a democrat as those parties are the same, controlled by out of touch rich people over the age of 50. It’s not left vs right, it’s young vs old and the super rich vs everyone else.

...firing guns into crowds, inciting riots, y'know, the usual.
The abundance of warning labels on things aren't the result of legislation but are the result of litigation. Companies slap them on everything because of our curiously screwed up tort system.
Helmet laws -- and here I believe Wellsia refers to wearing helmets while motorcycling on public roads -- are partially the result of litigation and partially the result of secondary liability. Motorcyclists are now on notice that suing drivers for their own willing assumption of the risk of head injuries is much harder; the same applies to seatbelt laws. You may do as you like, but if you get turned into street pizza, don't expect us to pay. (At least around here, the police won't stop you for either.)
Secondary liability comes in with the US' universal health care. Oh, yes, we do have that! Federal and state laws require hospital emergency departments to treat anybody who shows up regardless of ability to pay. It's the least efficient and most expensive way of providing health care, but there it is. (How hospitals get paid for caring for those who can't afford it is a Byzantine mess.)
So, we're back to money: thanks, but we're just a little tired of paying for fools who smash their heads in and then end up in comas for months. If the threat of a fine stops people from ending up in the hospital on our dime, it's worth it.
This belongs on a poster. The worst part is that a good chunk of the youth and "everyone else" of the US is too brainwashed with American exceptionalism that they often underutilize the power they have in combating the bad things in this country, if any of that made sense.
The good part is that I think that number is lowering
Sorry for taking time to reply for some reason i turned off RMB mentions in my notifications and didn't see the mention, oop.
As I understood it your suggestion was: Tsunter seeks peace with the Free Powers leading to the UP blitzing across and occupying Tsunter until 1947 when the coup against Zastere knocks UP out the war.
My alternative suggestion was: UP backstabs and attacks Tsunter basically wiping the Tsunter army and leading to Partitioner and Free Power forces basically fighting in out over the Tsunterlands (remember the Tsunterlands needs to be so devastated in the war we turn to NotCommunism). The Free Powers help arm and create Ipachi insurgency in the interior (with the promise of a post-war independent ipachi state) which helps disrupt the UP's supply lines, ending the UP invasion of Tsunter.
My main concern with having the UP army stay in Tsunter until 1947 is it effectively only gives the Free Powers a year to a year and a half to liberate San Montagna and invade AM although as AM will be the only Argean Neo-Imp left, and I believe at that point will also be being invaded by Seg and Domania, so they probably won't be lasting to long anyway. Ultimately it depends what Athara magarat, Jeriga and 
Aizcona want to do in regards to the final years of the war.
Otherwise I am completely fine with going with your suggestion and having UP stay in Tsunter until the 1947 coup. I would quite like it if as part of the peace deal with post-coup UP they end annexing the Tsunter Interior - so that Tsunter ends being divided between Aizcona, UP and the Jerigan puppet state. This would allow NotCommunist Tsunter in the 1960s to go on the war path and retake these territories in a series of short wars.
The thing about Reagan’s economic plan, was it was suppose to be short term. Under Carter we had rampant inflation, interest rates were in double digits, much of the jumps in prices were at this time, the economy was booming, but it was out of control, Reagan wanted to stop inflation, not shut things down. He even said it was a temporary fix, it was never intended to be the rally call of the Republican Party
That last idea sounds interesting but even though my leadership changed, would UP still be trusted enough to immediately get control of land after we lost the imperial war? I mean I guess it isn't too far fetched, after all Bulgaria gained land after losing WW2...
Out of all free design programs (keyword here being "free"), it's got most of the features of more complex design programs like inkscape without the need to watch a tutorial on how to use it, as it has the simple tooltips of paint.
By the way, never forget that bankers are a cancer on our society and we’re about to get 2008ed again
Remodio and Jeriga
It surely will
It also has the added benefit of not owning that website domain so it's slightly harder to look up
You poor, impoverished fool ...
Sorry, I forgot to mention earlier, I'll need some budding volunteers to have Monarch factories set up shop in your nation to manufacture microchips and assorted computing components:
Monarch Laboratories
A Dominant Force in Global Computing and Development
Monarch Laboratories is an Alteran owned multinational technology company founded in
1971 and headquartered in Arcmond, Altera. Since investing microprocessors in the 1990s, Monarch has grown in size,
starting as a microprocessor manufacturer, the company would go on to develop and produce a range of electronic components
for a wide variety of manufacturers across the Western Isles. In Altera, they hold a near-monopoly on the development,
production and manufacture of chipsets, motherboards, network interfaces and, increasingly, automotive sensors.

Monarch Laboratories Corporation, more commonly referred to as Monarch, is an Alteran multinational corporation and technology company headquartered in Arcmond, Carneath. It is a dominant semiconductor chip manufacturer by revenue within the region, and is the developer of the x86 series of microprocessors, the processors found in most personal computers (PCs) manufactured in Altera. Incorporated in Carneath, Monarch is ranked as one of Altera's driving forces for the digitalisation - and is commonly heralded as a founder of the "Digital Revolution" within the nation.
Monarch supplies microprocessors for computer system manufacturers such as Conway, Horizon and Wilye. Monarch also manufactures motherboard chipsets, network interface controllers and integrated circuits, flash memory, graphics chips, embedded processors and other devices related to communications and computing.
Monarch Corporation was founded on July 18, 1971 by semiconductor pioneers Nellyn Kelley (of Kelley's law) and Waltar Mason, and the executive leadership and vision of Gorman Bridson. Monarch was an early developer of SRAM and DRAM memory chips, which represented the majority of its business until 1981. Although Monarch created the world's first commercial microprocessor chip in 1971, it was not until the success of the personal computer (PC), and later the Skylight operating system from Horizon, that this became its primary business.
During the 1990s, Monarch invested heavily in new microprocessor designs fostering the rapid growth of the computer industry. During this period, Monarch became the dominant supplier of microprocessors for PCs and was known for aggressive and anti-competitive tactics in defense of its market position, as well as a struggle with Horizon for control over the direction of the PC industry.
History
Monarch was founded in Arcmond, Carneath, in 1971 by Nellyn Kelley (known for "Kelley's law"), a chemist, and Waltar Mason, a physicist and co-inventor of the integrated circuit. Just 2 years later, Monarch became a public company via an initial public offering (IPO), raising Ͼ6.8 million ($23.50 per share). Monarch's third employee was Gorman Bridson, a chemical engineer, who later ran the company through much of the 1980s and the high-growth 1990s.
At its founding, Monarch was distinguished by its ability to make logic circuits using semiconductor devices. The founders' goal was the semiconductor memory market, widely predicted to replace magnetic-core memory. Its first product, a quick entry into the small, high-speed memory market in 1971, was a static random-access memory (SRAM), which was nearly twice as fast as earlier diode implementations by regional rivals. In the same year, Monarch also produced the a 1024-bit read-only memory (ROM) and the first commercial metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) silicon gate SRAM chip.
While their early products helped give the fledgling company a significant start, their early chips complex static cell structure made it too slow and costly for mainframe memories. The three-transistor cell implemented in the first commercially available dynamic random-access memory (DRAM), released in 1970, solved these issues. They had the bestselling semiconductor memory chip in the world by 1972, as it replaced core memory in many applications. Monarch's business grew during the 1970s as it expanded and improved its manufacturing processes and produced a wider range of products, still dominated by various memory devices.
Monarch created the first commercially available microprocessor (Monarch 4004) in 1971. The microprocessor represented a notable advance in the technology of integrated circuitry, as it miniaturized the central processing unit of a computer, which then made it possible for small machines to perform calculations that in the past only very large machines could do. Considerable technological innovation was needed before the microprocessor could actually become the basis of what was first known as a "mini computer" and then known as a "personal computer". Monarch also created one of the first microcomputers in 1973.
Monarch opened its first international manufacturing facility in 1972, in New aapelistan, which would host multiple Monarch operations, before opening assembly facilities and semiconductor plants in Westmoor isles in the early 1980s, and manufacturing and development centres in Athara magarat in the 1990s. By the early 1980s, its business was dominated by dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) chips. However, increased competition from overseas semiconductor manufacturers had, by 1983, dramatically reduced the profitability of this market. The growing success of the personal computer, based on an Monarch microprocessor, was among factors that convinced the company to shift focus to microprocessors and to change fundamental aspects of that business model.
In 2005, CEO Gorman Bridson reorganized the company to refocus its core processor and chipset business on platforms (enterprise, digital home, digital health, and mobility).
In 2006, Monarch unveiled its 'Rea' microarchitecture to widespread critical acclaim; the product range was perceived as an exceptional leap in processor performance that at a stroke regained much of its leadership of the field.
In February 2011, Monarch began to build a new microprocessor manufacturing facility in Stybridge, Bawres, completed in 2013 at a cost of 5Ͼ billion. The company produces three-quarters of its products in the Alteran Republics, although three-quarters of its revenue come from overseas.
The Affordable Internet Alliance (AIA) was launched in October 2013 and Monarch is part of the coalition of public and private organisations that also includes Horizon, Conway, and RiChu. Led by Donn Cowin, the AIA seeks to make Internet access more affordable so that access is broadened in the developing world, where only 31% of people are online. Horizon will help to decrease Internet access prices so that they fall below the Alteran Broadband Commission's worldwide target of 5% of monthly income.

Considering I am a Democrat, yes they are. Politicians don’t care about cause and effect all they care about is “What can I do right now to appease the voters”. If I have to change it later, I’ll tell them that’s not what I meant and they misunderstood what I was really saying or they hope we forget what they said.
