Government Policy
Energy and the Environment
The Kingdom of Einmyria has explicitly stated that it is looking into environmental sustainability research. Much of the tax that the government earns is feeded back into the economy by way of large amounts of R&D funding into areas like algaculture [2], for either ethanol or hydrogen biofuel energy sources. The government is also currently heavily subsidizing solar panels for homes in order to reduce the dependence electricity as well as hybrid cars, and is looking into green home projects. It is considering a carbon tax for all individuals (not only corporations).
The kingdom has also made the komodo dragon, a highly endangered species, it's national animal, in the hopes that greater awareness will help the komodo dragon's plight.

Should Democracy Be Compulsory?
Government Stance:
"It's not contradictory at all," argues political commentator Larry Fellow. "The fact is, if not everyone votes, the outcome isn't truly representative. Some groups--like elderly gun nuts--vote more often than others. That's why we always end up with such terrible politicians."
