The Megacorporation of Cashmen is a gargantuan, orderly nation, ruled by Maxim Turner with an iron fist, and renowned for its irreverence towards religion, complete absence of social welfare, and spontaneously combusting cars. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 16.912 billion Cashpeople are ruled with an iron fist by the corrupt, dictatorship government, which oppresses anyone who isn't on the board of a Fortune 500 company. Large corporations tend to be above the law, and use their financial clout to gain ever-increasing government benefits at the expense of the poor and unemployed.
The minute, corrupt, pro-business, well-organized government, or what there is of one, is primarily concerned with Defense, with Industry and Law & Order also on the agenda, while Welfare and Environment aren't funded at all. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of The Profit Utopia. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 1.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Cashman economy, worth a remarkable 2,768 trillion Monies a year, is driven almost entirely by the private sector, which is broadly diversified and led by the Information Technology industry, with significant contributions from Retail, Arms Manufacturing, and Gambling. Average income is an impressive 163,689 Monies, but there is a vast disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 1,499,675 per year while the poor average 1,906, a ratio of 786 to 1.
The government spends millions of Monies every year prosecuting spammers, Maxim Turner is the self-declared God of all Cashmen, getting a haircut is a punishable offence, and major polluting industries have painted a lot of their machines green to give an impression of caring about the environment. Crime, especially youth-related, is well under control, despite the fact that it is difficult to make it through a day without breaking one of the country's many laws. Cashmen's national animal is the Moneybag, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.
Cashmen is ranked 282,402nd in the world and 3rd in Poopi Noopi Groupi for Nicest Citizens, with 0.33 average smiles per day.
