The Anarchy That I Run of Doctor Horrible

“The world is a mess and I just need to rule it.”

The Anarchy That I Run of Doctor Horrible is a gargantuan, safe nation, remarkable for its frequent executions, state-planned economy, and punitive income tax rates. The cynical population of 22.939 billion Doctor Horribleans are ruled with an iron fist by the dictatorship government, which ensures that no-one outside the party gets too rich. In their personal lives, however, citizens are relatively unoppressed; it remains to be seen whether this is because the government genuinely cares about its people, or if it hasn't gotten around to stamping out civil rights yet.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, corrupt, socially-minded, well-organized morass — juggles the competing demands of Defense, Education, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Evil League of Evil Lair. The average income tax rate is 88.1%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The Doctor Horriblean economy, worth a remarkable 1,302 trillion Melted Gold Bars a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient, quite specialized black market in Uranium Mining, Tourism, Information Technology, and Soda Sales. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 56,789 Melted Gold Bars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Suppression of pro-democracy protests is a daily occurrence, consuming ecstasy is a common rite of passage, billions of Melted Gold Bars are being blown on orbital weapons development, and parents live in fear of governmental 'child protection' squads. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Doctor Horrible's national animal is the Fish Rots from the Head, which is also the nation's favorite main course.

Doctor Horrible is ranked 65,469^th in the world and 47^th in Hell for Lowest Crime Rates, with 70.78 law-abiding acts per hour.
