The Degrominator of Jacob Degrom is a gargantuan, efficient nation, notable for its keen interest in outer space, enslaved workforce, and stringent health and safety legislation. The hard-nosed, cynical, humorless, devout population of 11.189 billion Jacob Degromians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.
The medium-sized, corrupt government juggles the competing demands of Defense, Law & Order, and Industry. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Citi Field. The average income tax rate is 47.9%.
The frighteningly efficient Jacob Degromian economy, worth a remarkable 1,339 trillion dollars 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 large, well-organized, fairly diversified black market in Arms Manufacturing, Information Technology, Furniture Restoration, and Beef-Based Agriculture. 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 an impressive 119,688 dollars, with the richest citizens earning 5.0 times as much as the poorest.
Exceptionally talented workers are praised more than Revolutionary heroes, young people suspect their parents might be a little bit stupid, noises louder than a whisper have been prohibited by law, and ten-year-olds regularly found their own political parties. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Jacob Degrom's national animal is the crocodile, which frolics freely in the nation's sparkling oceans, and its national religion is Winning Cy Youngs.
Jacob Degrom is ranked 91,420th in the world and 1,314th in the Rejected Realms for Most Stationary, with 496.75802929688 days.
