Hmm, second place... it seems my citizens like my nation so much that they don't care about politics and don't want any changes

Seems my nation is so interventionist that people actually care what happens outside the nation.

Oh and my taxes are soon to 100%

That's ridiculous thinking. It's more like probably being uneducated about that (no surprise since they're all either "Yes Sir!" and "Negative!" )

I mean, let's say we have these:

1) McCain
2) Obama
3) Bush (suppose it can be again)
4) Don't give a damn

Don't tell me 4 and 3 are the same...
4 is more like -- heck, I don't even know what those are babbling about, my choice would be random at best so I just Don't Give a Damn

And Darksy is right

My citizens are indifferent regarding politics, and I have no elections. Do you even know what that means? That they are fine with my current ruling. If they weren't, they would start a revolution. Or at least complain privately. But since I'm high on the list this also implies that my citizens are very unlikely to start a revolution, because they don't want anything changed. This also means they don't complain about how I rule, since they're indifferent about politics.

Then there is no politics, unless they discuss it. And if they don't care to discuss it, EVEN YOUR POLITICAL IDEOLOGY, then it doesn't mean they "like" it, they don't even discuss it. I suspect they are not educated enough for that.

Either that or they will start one, because they answered it so you would not find out.

(since otherwise, they could wake up with an agent at their door trying to kill them for liking a political party which you don't like).

I think you know too well that this game is not that complex and just reads a variable (doesn't take into account 'tricks' and such), but you just say this anyway

Doesn't take elections into account either. It assumes political parties by default rankings

I mean, what other option was there apart from "Don't Give a Damn" if there aren't any political parties?

Q: Do you like Asheera's welfare system?
A: Don't give a Damn

you think that it means they like it?

No, it's more like:

Skama:

Q: Do you want to get into politics or argue with some decisions made by the rulers?
A: Yes
Q: Why?
A: Because I want to change something I don't agree with.

Drathir:

Q: Do you want to get into politics or argue with some decisions made by the rulers?
A: No, I'm indifferent. We have the best ruler and my life is perfect anyway as it is (as far as a government is involved, obviously), no changes needed.

That is ridiculous logic.

Because if you don't 'vote' with your opinion for the CURRENT situation you love so much, you are giving an easy win to the enemy. If you want to keep the current situation VOTE FOR IT (in this case, complete the survey or whatever). Votes are not used only for changing something lol.

Being indifferent means you DON'T CARE who wins (or at least, who is 'supported'). Being indifferent between Obama & McCain means you don't CARE who wins, not that you would like Bush to win.

It also means something like:

Q: Do you like Asheera's welfare system or TheDeath's welfare system
A: WTF is welfare?

Your reasoning is extremely ridiculous, not going to bother arguing anymore.

And I have no elections. (this smiley was for elections, not for you lol if you didn't get it )

It was a SURVEY they VOTED on. (or chose options)
and I was kinda expecting something like that from you.

Ridiculous is to post something is ridiculous without giving examples/reasoning and saying "I won't argue with it, but I'll just say anyway, it's ridiculous" which has no point what-so-ever (the latter mind you).

In that issue (if I know what you're talking about) I chose the Air Force -- easier to deliver nukes without having to go into orbit (stealth bombers)

Not the funding issue, in this issue an admiral suggested me to build a "blue water" navy (blue water navy meaning the one that participates in operations outside my nation, like annexations, etc )
