To the Great and Honorable Chairman [CLASSIFIED],
As you well know, during the last 10 years, we've managed to restore something resembling capitalism in this country after the overthrow of Saeko, The Accursed. Unfortunately, all financial institutions were wiped out during the Reign of Madness after she demanded that all finances be measured in prime numbers of square Kelvins per nautical watermelon. Then, all machines were ordered to be destroyed after her economic advisors told her there was no way to make the GDP graph "look like a smiley face." But we do still have a few million surviving hands ready to work in the growing service economy.
After an initial unprecedented growth spurt, the economy has stagnated. We believe that only you are capable of bringing prosperity to our people once more.
Here is the current situation:
Our government currently spends $20B per year on the service industry. The prevailing wage rate is $1.00 per hour, and incomes are taxed at 20%. Wages cannot exceed $100.00 per hour, and taxes cannot go above 99%. Just post what variables you would like to change and by how much in you post, and we will report back to you in 10 years time. Or maybe in 100 or 1000 years depending on the weather. The space-time continuum hasn't been the same since taxes were imposed on hypercubical thoughts. Here are some additional stats for you to ponder:
Legend:
G_s = G_d = government spending
T_s = T_d = taxes
theta = tax rate
R = Gov debt to GDP ratio
C_d = C_s = consumption
WB = total wage bill
W = wage rate
YD = disposable income of households
Y = GDP
N_s = employment level, i.e., number of workers employed in the private sector
WI = wealth inequality, %share of all wealth owned by firms
Time = years since capitalism was re-established.
Best of luck, Chairman [CLASSIFIED]
