Hello people of Identity. My name is Gene Smith and I'm running for Governor of The Island. I know that the game currently isn't out and nothing is set in stone but I wanted to set out my campaign. I've taken my time to carefully think about different answers for popular questions. What will you do about Property Taxes? What will you do about Gun Control? What will you do about regulating taxes? What are your thoughts about Health Care? What you can do for the working man, and what will you do about the crime? ------------ Property Taxes are Taxes you pay to keep your business running or your home from being taken away. Property taxes are unnecessary and unneeded. Property Taxes need to be removed completely and focusing on taxing other things. You should not have to pay for something you helped build just to live in fear of it being taken away. ----- Gun Control is something that everybody talks about when somebody gets shot. Well the hard truth is, guns don't kill people. People kill people. A person has to load the gun, aim the gun and pull the trigger. We don't need control on guns. We need control on the people who have the guns. If you have a criminal record and you have been known to kill you will have to run a background check before you're able to get your guns. ------ Regulating Taxes on working people will not only bring more jobs but also putting more people in those jobs. A person who makes 8$ an hour gets taxed 5%,10% and even 15% and sometimes even up to but not limited to 35%. You take a middle class man who works 10 hours a day and makes 10 dollars an hour. He gets taxed 15% for his week of pay. He takes home 425$ or somewhere around there. That money could be going towards his house payments. His food. His utilities or even buying clothes for his children. Regulating taxes is the number one thing we need to work on. I want to lower the tax rate to at least 3% to give the lower/middle class man or woman that extra incentive to work harder for those promotions. A happy worker is a hard worker. ------- Health Care is the most important thing. Canada-while their government isn't the best- they do have free health care. Free health care is the most important thing that we need to work on. While Canadians have to pay higher taxes for free health care we will not. Regulating taxes is what needs to happens. --------- The working man is the best type of man. A man who isn't afraid of trying to support his family and trying to make his household happy. The working man is the backbone of our community. I've seen plenty working men and woman that have started their own companies based on the fact to grow more and create more jobs. They make more money for our homes and government. I want to work on. Not taxing the working person not because they're special but because they deserve what they worked for. Why take that away? And crime is something that I will talk about later if necessary. Thank you for your time.

Yes. You win

Just because you donate money doesn't not mean you aren't greedy. You and people like you are the problem. Not the government. Not taxing. Your party is hitting nothing but a brick wall. You and your party are nothing more than glorified conspiracy theorists.

I feel like country servers are better. That way there's less confusion and then more of the local governments can reign free.

"Good on militia but even for a small community they need healthcare"... Private healthcare." Okay. Private Healthcare for your private community. With private security and private institutions. You are saying you'll make enough money to run off of your own private resources. Okay. When you do that you run out of money. When you do you can't pay for other health items. Vaccines being one of them. With no taxing you can't make extra money to pay for things like that. You already said everything will be privatized so how will you make a lot of money. You can't make your own medicine because you don't have the materials nor the money to fund it. So how will you do it?

Here's where things are gonna get dirty. You support the rich and the greedy. No matter what you say your party supports the 1% of America that has a 6 figure income. A government controlled country does have endless amounts of people to work and a constant and steady flow of money. Your proposal literally just proved my point. You're a greedy capitalist who only has your best interest at hand. Don't worry about the other 400 million people who have to suffer from a crumbling society like your own. As far as I'm concerned poor people who live paycheck to paycheck have done more for me then a rich person ever has. You want a country of rich people who are so greedy they would rather throw any type of government out the window in order to benefit themselves for the long run. You have not only proven my point about you doing it for personal gain and reason but you've also just practically admitted to not respecting the lower and middle class families that make up for about 70-90% of Americas working population. The lower to middle class have worked harder than most 3rd generation trust fund babies whom only concern is to make more money and get rid of the lower class because they don't want tax dollars being spent for their "Welfare." That welfare is what feeds the innocent children who can grow up to be something important to their country. But people like you need constant loans from banks because you don't wanna lose money but make more. People like you is what cause economic fluctuations in any type of branch in the United States. It's people like you who need to learn that rich people need to come to ground zero and see for yourself what it's like. Trust fund babies don't help anything they make it worse.

In a private community with limited resources and limited workers you're set up for failure. You said it yourself "If a person chooses to leave their job the workplace suffers production loss." And I bring up taxes to give you an example. Within today's America taxes are what keep things going. Taxes are something that are pretty much needed to maintain a steady flow of income for the government to get medical supplies and police equipment. If you're a privatized community that follow your own rules and are anarchists I doubt that somebody is going to sell you specific medicines that your private community simply cannot make. And regarding the private security and public weapons. Within in a world like that you've given free range to anybody. Why would somebody live in a society that doesn't follow the rules only to be told they have to follow the rules or they hold no value. You can't say "In this party you have free reign without the government. Legalize guns and drugs and abolish taxes." And then turn around and say (This is exactly what I gathered) "Instead of following an already monopoly set in place let's make a new one where only certain people can have that security. And to where we trade to each other so that nothing new comes within to that trade since we're privatized and can't make that new product." You've reduced the amount of income you make. You've reduced the amount of trust that is had by people. And with limited people to work you risk loss of the little production you already have. Which means there could be famines and a bigger need for necessitys that you can't provide. I keep bringing up about guns and drugs because this party is nonsensical. You say you follow no rules then say that you set specific rules in place to keep everything at peace. That is what a government does. Again, charities in a small community is like trading three thing between four people. You're bound to get the same thing every time. Sure at first everything is new and fresh but soon they realize they don't have what they want. That once they get old they won't be able to produce for the community. When they want more they'll try and take more. When they try and take more they'll get killed. When that person gets killed you'll cause paranoia and nobody will want anything to do with it anymore. Your point of not have a government is useless when you put rules down for people to follow. With rules that means there is control. The charity's are like loan. And soon the people giving are gonna need that loan too because they've run out of the product theyve given away.

You'd basically just work behind the scenes making sure things are running smooth. Get polls to see what people want and things like that.

While I agree with private parks and schools I think that even though some corruption in police officers is present you shouldn't blame the entire system to throw it out. There are legitimate officers out there who respect the people they protect. There's corruption with everything. The nurse stealing supplies. The laundromat owner skimming some money off the top. It's always present. But with a stable economy you have less to worry about. Instead of buying a whole new billion dollar milita just upgrade the current one with more equipment. Don't take out something that has worked for hundreds of years. Even in a private world corruption will still be present. Corruption isn't something you can escape from. Greed is also something that can't be stopped. If you let people carry around guns they can shoot a cop for pulling them over if they think it's not fair. I want to protect those men and women who serve us. The only people who should be allowed to have weapons are ex military personnel who have gone through mental stability checks, officers and select few clerks. It's a monopoly that can change with specific changes to the system. Instead of abolishing taxation just minimize it. Raise the minimum wage a little bit so spending isn't a problem.

Here's where things get funny. 1- If you reduce everything to a private community your not going to get anything from anywhere else. And assuming that most medical facilities work off of getting sourced from outside a specific zone and work to get mass product from different places you would ultimately kill off any type of revenue you could ever make. That would mean you don't get to pay anybody that works there which would cause a rebellion. And then they would all want to leave. And since you can't tax the only business there how would you pay for something like that? Since people can't make the money for the treatments they need you don't get any money either. 2- If you walked around with a militia what's stopping somebody else with lots of money to do the same. They either kill you or start a long war with you which results in casualties of mass proportions. You would have a private force that you previously said were to replace the current police force, work for you and take refuge. I don't know about you but if I see a gas station with 10 fully suited militia guards with AR-15's and bullet proof vests and a clerk with a pistol and grenades I'm not gonna want to even go there. An armed community is not a community. It is cannon fader so you can eliminate the weak and the poor. 3- My point was that you won't have money with what you're doing. The drug dealer that sells his weed for 2x the price because it's illegal uses that money to pay for hospital bills. That money goes towards taxes. That tax money goes towards government spending. Youre trying to prove the point that when everybody has guns everybody will be happy. You said yourself "Bad people kill people." If that's the case giving out guns to those people is going to result in a lot of deaths. And you want a private army to take them out which will result in an all out war. Killing, looting and rape. Drugs will fuel the murder of innocent people and then there will be nothing left to protect. You are trying to say that it's a better way to live. There is no living when it's under fear of being shot by your neighbors. That is called terrorism to a full. To live in fear because there is no order.

1- Hospitals and police officers need that tax money in order to continue protecting citizens. (Don't worry I know what you say later and I'll get to that.) And the government needs that tax money in order to properly pay those Doctors, Officers, EMT, Firefighters, Prison Guards etc. Taxation is something of a necessity to have in a ever expanding economic community. Businesses sprout out faster than a flower blooming in summer. They're everywhere and when you have taxation it just makes a nice rounded circle of profit. Loans are what kill businesses, not taxes. When they take out loans that means they have to pay it back. And if they don't they risk going to jail. I'd simply rather pay taxes and then file for them later to get money back. Not take out one huge loan and be left broke later on. 2- While that statement is utterly correct in senses. You do realize that there are more people who would rather shoot you and take your money than people who would help you. You would have people feeling uncomfortable in their own city. This would create a mass protest on firearms eventually resulting in riots and fights between middle and lower class citizens. What I'm reading is that your proposals are more or less catered to the upper class life. There was a book that ultimately said that to have a sustainable community you need to kill off the lower class to have a good economy. Less poor people makes more money. But there was also a book that refuted that statement saying that the only reason people don't want poor people is because the rich want to be richer. (Went off on a ramble there.) 3- While private police is nice it's also bad. Because reducing the number of trained public officers you eliminate the amount you can have around the city protecting people. With a private police force you would have even MORE government spending to keep them on a specific payroll which would make even MORE taxes on small businesses. You're not only going to get innocent people killed you'll also make the economy unstable in the process. Pretty much making everybody poor while they have good security. If everybody is poor they would be able to run a business. If they can't make money they can't have your guns that you want to make legal. With no guns that's a reduce on crime ultimately making that private police force useless. You'll be paying them money to be glorified babysitters with guns. Im sorry. I stand by what I said. I just can't see that working friend.

I see many things wrong with this. 1- Taxes are what not only help small businesses but also help Government funding to give those small businesses their money if they ever need a bailout. Taxes are something that's are needed because without them a country would be insanely poor. 2- The legalization of firearms would result in everybody trying to shoot everybody. People have short tempers and will shoot on sight for no reason whatsoever. 3- Privatization of state owned institutions is a very bad thing. Because along with your legalization of firearms, drugs and now this you'll get what you strived for. While that may be good for you. That's means a few things. The lower class citizens and the working man will take those drugs and guns and rebel towards your party. Privatization of institutions would mean you have nowhere to go for help. And no taxes mean if you needed any help the police wouldn't be able to help you because they have no money from those taxes to get cars, guns and other equipment. While I enjoy the idea of a party of this stature I also see too many problems with what could happen. I'm not hating but I'm just warning you of what could happen.

If they did make a MK open world game it would more or less be like DC Universe Online. I just hope they would polish it off and make it an enjoyable experience. Either it'll be an MMO with customizable characters or an open world game with some online aspects. But either way it could probably be bad.

I hope you find your way in our club and hopefully we have more influence together rather than alone. I raise my glass to you sir.

Activison is only a publisher. It's up to Treyarch and Infinity Ward to make those games and Infinity Ward has said "We know what they want, but more people want this type of game. You can see by our Infinite Warfare sales." YOU ONLY SOLD THEM BECAUSE YOU BUNDLED IT WITH A GAME PEOPLE ACTUALLY WANT

Right! That's the only way they'll be able to sell copies.

Call of Duty 4 Remastered. Every single MLG player doesn't want to play Infinate Warfare because they're sick of the idea of the game. They want boots on the ground and just nice simple action. And World at War was always my shit and I hope that it gets Remastered.

Call of Duty Advanced Warfare and up. All just awful games

What the fuck are you even talking about? Are you referring to the one time I posted super passively about the how they don't inform us and how they should. Get your head out of your ass and stay on track because you don't make any sense. And trying to accuse me of something that I most likely didn't even do isn't the way to go. Now please find the exact post where I completely bash on the games release date and argue with people about it. If you're so clever you should be able to do that Mr. "I start fights with everybody even though I barely speak English and then every topic I join I start some shit with somebody."
