“Watergate! Watergate! Watergate! Watergate! Watergate!”

The Fortunate Son of The Meathead is a gargantuan, environmentally stunning nation, renowned for its complete lack of prisons, punitive income tax rates, and stringent health and safety legislation. The democratic population of 44.879 billion Meatheadians are free to do what they want with their own bodies, and vote for whomever they like in elections; if they go into business, however, they are regulated to within an inch of their lives.

The government — a sprawling, bureaucracy-choked, liberal, socially-minded, outspoken morass — prioritizes Welfare, although Education, Healthcare, and Spirituality are also considered important. The average income tax rate is 79.7%, and even higher for the wealthy.

The large but stagnant Meatheadian economy, worth 455 trillion glorias a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. The industrial sector, which is highly specialized, is led by the Cheese Exports industry, with major contributions from Woodchip Exports, Book Publishing, and Uranium Mining. Average income is 10,153 glorias, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. The Meathead's national animal is the bunker, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.

The Meathead is ranked 265,131^st in the world and 10^th in New Jersey for Most Corrupt Governments, with 0.71 kickbacks per hour.
