The Gunboat Diplomacy of USS Reuben James is a gargantuan, safe nation, notable for its smutty television, complete lack of public education, and suspicion of poets. The hard-nosed, hard-working, cynical, humorless population of 32.61 billion Seamen 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 tiny, moralistic, pro-business, well-organized government prioritizes Law & Order, although Defense and Industry are also considered important, while Social Policy and Welfare aren't funded at all. Citizens pay a flat income tax of 5.9%.

The frighteningly efficient on the USS Reuben James economy, worth a remarkable 3,786 trillion Dollars a year, is broadly diversified and led by the Arms Manufacturing industry, with major contributions from Automobile Manufacturing, Uranium Mining, and Soda Sales. Average income is an impressive 116,128 Dollars, but there is an enormous disparity between incomes, with the richest 10% of citizens earning 635,500 per year while the poor average 10,832, a ratio of 58.7 to 1.

All artwork is carefully screened for offensive material, the government has cut its subsidies for all special interest groups, there are no minimum wage laws, and the police have reaffirmed their tough stance on drugs. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. USS Reuben James's national animal is the Depth Charge, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

USS Reuben James is ranked 994th in the world and 4th in Capitalist Paradise for Most Stationary, with 4,758.70528776 days.
