How about a massively complicated economics question to Shroom? :)

Or maybe something on religious issues like gay rights? It has to be difficult and require thought ;)

Ok, I decided to throw in a loaded question on the alliances.

Religious issues? Well, I would be more than happy to talk about that one.

Glad I'm not there yet. :D

My answer though, would have been shorter: "Well that depends on what type of 'military adventure' it is. Next question, please." :wink:

And of course what you say can wind up as policy. You're a King, after all. :P

Yeah, damn my attempt to consider details :D

Well, it's been said, and so it is the law now. Goddamn politics :P

Politics suck.

You make an off-hand comment in the wrong place at the wrong time and some nuclear-armed maniac decides he needs to wipe you out because he reads the tabloids. It's shit :P

Well, it pays to be ambiguous, though with the people in the room, too much and too little.. seems to make little difference to paranoia.

Well, Saddamistan did send a representation to the Olympics. So, hopefully, they won't think "Aha! They are hiding something! Quick, we must nuke them before they sneakattackify us!" :D

EDIT: Hmm, Shroom is more eloquent than me ;)

OK...so...last question, it seems, unless Shroom wants to be asked about some embarassingly complicated economics matter by another smarmy student.

I suppose it depends on what you mean by a 'UAR military adventure'. As you probably remember, last time the world came to the brink of nuclear war by an actual nuclear attack on a MESS convoy because of a perceived insult to the UAR

The Emperor can still knock us out, he's entitles to one more question. Plus, some other people may want to ask theirs.

Don't worry, I'd take one for the team and answer an economic question for you :P

Something about Libertarianism always bothered me. Then one day, I realized what it was:
Libertarian philosophy can be boiled down to the phrase, "Work Will Make You Free."


In Libertarianism, there is no Government, so the Bosses are free to exploit the Workers.
In Communism, there is no Government, so the Workers are free to exploit the Bosses.
So in Libertarianism, man exploits man, but in Communism, its the other way around!

Shroom will make a point to stop by a gift store and buy some chocolates or something for Miss Jia. A ridiculous amount of the stuff. Yes.
