The Good Hood of Always Bet on Black is a gargantuan, safe nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, absence of drug laws, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, democratic population of 37.272 billion Always Bet on Blackians 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 morass — juggles the competing demands of Social Policy, Welfare, and Education. The average income tax rate is 74.4%, and even higher for the wealthy.
The large but sluggish Always Bet on Blackian economy, worth 748 trillion gats 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, quite specialized black market in Woodchip Exports, Cheese Exports, Uranium Mining, and Book Publishing. 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 20,083 gats, and distributed extremely evenly, with practically no difference between the richest and poorest citizens.
Always Bet on Black's children are widely acknowledged as the most foul-mouthed in the region, organ donation rates are among the lowest in the region, all recreational drugs are legal, and TV shows must meet strict ethnicity quotas. Crime is totally unknown, thanks to a very well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Always Bet on Black's national animal is the booty monster, which frolics freely in the nation's many lush forests.
Always Bet on Black is ranked 533rd in the world and 18th in United States for Most Stationary, with 5,514.66313728 days.
