The Republic of Highpowered Waste Collection Entity is a colossal, genial nation, renowned for its punitive income tax rates, restrictive gun laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The cynical population of 8.255 billion Highpowered Waste Collection Entityians are ruled without fear or favor by a psychotic dictator, who outlaws just about everything and refers to the populace as "my little playthings."
The large, moralistic, socially-minded, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Healthcare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 52.9%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The sizeable but stagnant Highpowered Waste Collection Entityian economy, worth 58.4 trillion dollars 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 black market in Cheese Exports, Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, and Furniture Restoration. 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 7,072 dollars, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
The government only invests in infrastructure after a natural disaster, women across the country are tying the knot, Highpowered Waste Collection Entityian police have to pay out of their own pockets for bulletproof vests, and a major religion has been named as Highpowered Waste Collection Entity's national religion. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Highpowered Waste Collection Entity's national animal is the lion.
Highpowered Waste Collection Entity is ranked 115,989th in the world and 1,005th in Artificial Solar System for Lowest Crime Rates, with 64.13 law-abiding acts per hour.
