Also, running an 11% deficit on state spending isn't a good idea.

I Christian-Pagan Germanic syncretic culture, with a Constitutional and Republican mode of government and a largely symbolic Royalty.

Marcus Aurelius for examplifying a Stoic lifestyle , maybe Socrates for laying the foundation. I'll say Marcus Aurelius.

That's a tough one, and I have many depending on the time period. I'll say Alfred the Great because I like the Early Middle Ages/Late Antiquity the most.

>But let me give you some tips.

The black deficit means you are in massive debt. Your state will either collapse or be the bitch of someone with high surplus (which is extra cash).

>Your budget size is the amount of money your government owns out of the entire GDP.
For example, the United States GDP is 16~ trillion dollars and it's budget size is 3.5~ trillion which comes out at about 22%.
The United States also has a 0-40% income tax and a maximum of 10% consumption tax. I forget the others.

The United States is just an example of budget size but it gives you a good idea of how it can work. That said we Americans bitch about taxes 24/7.
If your taxes are higher than 40% in any area, have fun with that coup d'état. If you have extremely high corporate tax and tariffs, good luck with a failed economy. If you have high capital gains, you are going to have a problem with homeless and a shitty housing market.

What happens when your enlightened autocrat dies and your state collapses into warlordry?

And now I will judge your economies

Taxes too high. And no surplus means no flexibility or savings for a crisis


Massive deficit, massive taxes

Lower your taxes with that surplus

Taxes too high for my taste but your economy is better than the rest of these illiterate fags

The best out of the others but 4-8% surplus is better. However
>welfare state
Wtf man

Ideal state: something along pic related (was kinda hard to convey on it, but oh well)

Favorite philosopher: Eh, Nietzsche when I feel edgy, otherwise I can't say am too loyal to any in particular

Favorite ruler: Cincinnatus, Washington, Fredrick the great, Bismark are some that get me going

Rate me Veeky Forums

Taxes too high, surplus too low
Refer to

Yeah, didn't really care about that part because I didn't like the restrictive representation of taxes. (pic is another version I've taken)

Also, I disagree that every year a gov't should strive for a 4-8% surplus. If the debts are minimal and their is already a modest rainy day fund in place, then continuing surpluses is simply the gov't hording money.

>no taxes
>no tariffs
>still trying to run a welfare state

it actually wouldn't let me put 0% on some of the options, that's why they're stuck at 10%
it is a beta program

I don't into economics at all so basically of the shit on the right was me winging it. Especially with the bank, I have no clue what that shit meant.

>women can't vote

*tips fedora*

I've been there. There's an art museum inside a fully recreated parthenon. It's pretty cool and I recommend it for any history buffs.

No state, no philosophy, no rulers.

Patrician taste

What is right, what is true, why should I care about what is right or true?

It's Stoic philosophy.

It's a very person-oriented philosophy, it doesn't claim to quantify truth or rightness (in the way that you mean, I suspect), but rather that in any way you believe something to be wrong or untrue in light of specific virtues, you shouldn't do it for your own sake.

Stoic philosophy is trash philosophy, that's all one needs to know about it.

Not sure about ideal state but wouldn't be that bad.

It's stupid of them to ask about bank reserve requirements anyway. The default policy should just be "leave it to the Central Bank". I also think it's way more relevant to ask if there should be oversight over the Central Bank

>people wanting publicly funded pensions
Your pensions are publicly funded m8.
The name didn't change from "public profit" to "funding" but that's what you're doing because you didn't touch the slider.

>pensions says 'employer funded'

>giving women the right to vote
enjoy your ever-rising debt, and ever expanding welfare state.

And public profit means the government gets the money.
Do tell how exactly the government profits from employer funded pensions.

You're exploiting a bug in the website, that doesn't make your state work. It makes it retarded.

>filteries.com/politics

hilarious bullshit. pick your flavor of liberal capitalism!

>employers invest in a pension fund along the lines of Singapore/Malaysia/a dozen other countries' privately-funded government-managed pension schemes

Truly this is an unworkable system and could never function in real life

Ideal state is a form of futuristic Marxism.

The idea of there being "an" "ideal state" already betrays a deep universalism and lack of understanding of politics as the organization of the res publica in a specific socio-geographical framework.

ethno-technocratic is quite strange dude.
Basically a radical right wing futurist party?

Basically i believe political parties should be required to have only highly educated in their cadre. As i live in a country where government officials are almost always under qualified, and placed not for their skills, but for their party membership (i'm also butthurt that my dad got fired because he didn't want to join the ruling political party).

I like it.

Imperial Militaristic Imperial Absolute Monarchy: A largely meritocratic state, where the most common way of climbing the social ladder is the military (with a mandatory 3 years military service). The King having absolute power, but in the end being mostly an uniting figurehead, strongly advised by a council of the most competent individuals. A nobility, mostly used as a bait to push the common people to excel, and as leaders, as they would be consistently raised and trained to be leaders and moral examples.

Religious nativism: there would be a state religion, with cult attendance mandatory, and recognized minority religions. Clergy would be heavily controlled by the state, and religion in general would mostly used as a tool to unite and bring morals to the people. There would be no immigration, though foreign students would be allowed. There would be tons of nativists policies, with traditional gender roles being strongly encouraged. Cultural unity would strongly enforced.

Autocratic Social State: It would be an authoritarian state, but ideally in a few generations the use of these absolute powers wouldn't be necessary too often. For example, children would be enrolled at 6 in patriotic, sportive and cultural associations, at 12 in paramilitaries, before doing their military service at 18, as a way to shape them into good men and women and spot potential dissidents early. There would be social programs to help those who genuinely need it, but any kind of fraud or overreliance would be considered treason and heavily punished.

Favorite Philosopher: Nietzsche

Favorite Ruler: Tie between Genghis Khan and Oda Nobunaga

Basically you want a turbo fascist napoleonic France/imperial Rome or low key Warhammer 40K

That's pretty edgy dude

The idea is to rule with an iron, but open, fist. Let the people do what they want as long as it does not threaten the harmony of the realm.

Power is divided between the Khan and the Diet. The Khan is the head of state, but may appoint a prime minister to be head of government; this is not a requirement, however. The Khan is supported by the diet. The diet is divided into two house; one of lords and one of commons. The house of lords is appointed whereas the house of Commons is elected from among the masses.The houses have the ability to veto the Khan, but must have a vote before they are able to.

The age of enfranchisement is 15 for all ages; however, in order to vote in the diet, men must have served in the military (of which 5 years must be served, 3 of which are on active duty). The state supports a policy of isolationism, but is active in as much as guarantees the safety of the realm.

Taxes are frowned upon; the states supports a libertarian system that exists only to ensure the stability of society (through law-enforcement and the like). That being said, the penalty for breaking the law is usually death or imprisonment, so disobedience is ill-advised. Still, laws are few, so unless something is explicitly written, an activity is generally allowed.

The idea is to have a state similar to that of the Mongols; one that is Authoritarian, but also tolerant and minimalist.
